Why do we seldom get

to the byline to cross the ball. The crosses we put in are so easy to defend. Harris said we played well on Saturday and created chances. To the first statement the answer is no we didn’t play well and to the second we created very few chances. Ojo had a good game and Wilson was patchy. The midfield don’t move the ball quickly enough. We need to get the balk wide quickly take on defenders and get to the byline. It’s not rocket science.

You've answered your own question.

Hoilet and ojo tend to cut back inside onto their stronger rather than get to the byline and pull the ball back across goal. Be nice to see them switch wings a bit more often to mix it up. I think that's where we would benefit of having wilson on the wing when Tomlin is fit. We'd also have Tomlins creativity in the middle as well.

On Sat I remember two good crosses from Ojo (might have been more). One when he'd switched to the left and crossed it left leg first time.
Second when he beat the man with trickery got to byline and crosses it right footed. Both times I don't think anyone was in the 6 yard box!
