North Lanarkshire EL Clasico


Recommended Posts

The press we're putting on Airdrie with a fairly high line looks a risky business. Especially with a player like Easton who can jink through easy. Space between the full backs and centre backs is still a glaring vulnerability to my mind too. Airdrie have a better, tighter two than Alloa by the looks of it too.

On a knife edge. They've got into our back third far too easily and often. On the other hand, we've broken them up and countered well a few times. Good links between Jones, Goodwillie, Love, Docherty and Livingstone answerable for that.

Bit of a cringe that it once again took us to go behind to fortify our defence, and the left hand side in particular. But we've drawn most of our team over there to do it. If they squeezed a pass inside, they were all but through on goal.

Going to harp on about a back four being a bad move until we pack it in or sign better players.

That said, at least we're starting play with two up at times and not being totally bossed. Progress of a kind.

Nervous for the second half, knowing they're full time and knowing that there'll be more space available as the game goes on. Need to use the subs well and think about tightening up at some point, just like at Alloa.
