Most of our best play this season has been through Barlaser setting up attacking play. Someone posted his season stats the other day (for assists and general passing play). He was second on assists (to Crooks I think) and above every other player by other metrics except goals scored.
Where we have generally struggled (as a team) is in defence... particularly at setpieces. Unfortunately, we also struggled offensively as well against Hull. The main reason we lost was failure to convert our better play into goals.
To be fair to Carrick and the team, our injury list is pretty much a full blown crisis. It's no surprise that certain players look tired as we are unable to rotate at the moment. We have not far off a full first team out of action. That is inevitably going to hurt our performance.
