It's got f all to do with making changes at half time - he coaches the team to be slow and ponderous, so doesn't really matter who he brings onMC will point to controlling the game for long periods. (Sideways, backwards)
Hope he can grow some and make changes soon to step this up.
As soon as we went 1 down we started moving it quicker which I think makes it even more annoying that we didn't start out like that. I get it for the 1st 5 minutes or so you don't want to make mistakes and encourage them but after that you've got to play.I actually think towards the end of the half we started to move the ball with a bit more urgency.
In the first half I counted three times Jones got free, looked up, didn't put the cross in and turned to pass it backwards.. the movement of the front men is so poor, Azaz just couldn't get on the ball, Conway (tried hard) again lacked quality, Lath, isn't putting the same commitment in...We need to move the ball far quicker and be more aggressive both in and out of possession.
Izzy needs to run at them rather than slowing it down and letting them all get back in before he gets his head up.
Sunderland are more direct, more aggressive and more direct.
