Reason for the defeat was a non existant midfield.coulndt keep hold of the ball and put constant pressure on the defence.
Too many wasted passes and the long ball creeping back as the main tactic.
Would love to see the 3-5-2 with 2 out and out wingers and 3 CM's that can control a game and create chances.
Not too worried about the defence.

2 wingers, 1 midfielder that can take control and create and 1 striker is badly needed as far as I'm concerned.

Critisism againts McDermott .... Use the subs bence more efficiently! At least when there some time left on the clock. His inability to change things up when current tactics is not working is frustrating.
