Yes we lose every wandering ball and 50 50. Seemed a bit timid isnt it?I'll take that at half time for sure.
We obviously came to give them the ball but what was a bit strange is that we didn't look nearly as composed or in control of our box and out wide as we did against City/Chelsea and Woolwich.
Maybe they've been given very specific instructions which is taking away some of their initiative and confidence. There were a couple of times where we won tight 2v2 or 2v3 duels but when the ball broke into space we didn't chase it - preferring to hold position and just allow the oncoming Pool player to recover the ball we'd just won.
Confidence grew as the half wore on though and we seem to getting on top late. Goal came at the best possible time for us and worse possible time for them.
COYS!
