Nuhui never holds the ball up, only fletch, and it doesn't matter where we lose the ball, as teams just waltz pass our Midfield anyhow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, he shouldn't be there IMO I agree to an extent but it must be hard for a young lad to go against the managers tactics when he has just found himself in the team.

He seems to be a stubborn man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It reduces the number of attacks we face due to the time it takes to run from their half to our box against winning the ball just outside our box. Dawson gets kicking practice too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
