1 up front is not good enough at home, helguson seemed isolated for most parts firday! fair enough in away games, but at home i think we need two up front

with proper support its fine. Cowie isnt a winger and bellamy was mark out of the game on friday.

Also we didnt control the midfield, which didnt help.

If you get doubled up on one side then you start to exploit the other side, the amount of space that McNaughton had to work with on Friday night was shocking, only problem was he wasn't recieving the ball with Hudson often opting to lump it forward. Some of our best attacks resulted in play from the right hand side but they were few and far between.

yes and it doesnt help having a midfield on the right who isnt a natural winger. with kim and bellamy on the wings we will be a lot better, and will spread the game both ways.
