However we have zero end product, as well as over complicating things offensively too. At one point A Chambers went passed 2 and instead of shooting from just outside the six yard box tries to go passed another. At another Sawyers from a similar position chose to lay off the ball to Morris further away from goal than shoot himself.
Morris and Cain my MOTM's offensively. Morris was excellent, inventive and carried the ball well. I think he needs to play on the left however as he likes to cut in on his left foot which doesn't look as good as the right. Cain was the only one willing to shoot!
JonnyOwen, you were clearly watching the same game as me. O'Connor was excellent, Morris showed potential and Cain had 3 good chances to hit the target (and was narrowly wide with all of them, with the goalkeeper well-beaten).
Totally agree with the Chambers 'Maradona-dribble' before passing backwards (?) and Sawyers straight through and turning back to pass #scaredtoacceptresponsibility
My favourite lowlight was when Forde broke clear, wondered whether to break into the box and take on the out-of-position covering centre-half or to arrow a slide-rule pass to Hiwula on the back-stick: what did he do? Float one straight out of play under no pressure at all...
I don't know about anyone else but the highlight was the half-time entertainment when some young lad pinged a 60 yard chip into a skip to win himself £250. I wonder how many of the Walsall forward-line could show such accuracy. Maybe Deano should bring in some barn-doors and banjoes into training on Monday...
