Was a penalty, my only gripe being that they are so often not given. Hope the ref is as eagle-eyed in THEIR penalty area. We need to settle down and start stretching them by playing our football. They look a rubbish team to me but we still have to focus and do our jobs.
What's the point of playing wingers and not tell them to hug the touchline and create space for Celina and Co? We're playing some decent stuff but being frustrated by their high press. Maybe it's Borja time to hold up the ball and bypass that press. Their entire midfield is on yellow cards so get guys running at them and they won't be able to touch them.
That all said it's a game for either to win to be honest. Their overlapping fullbacks are causing us tons of problems and we need to find a solution for that and we need to find our passing. Way too many wayward passes.
I still stand by a 1-2 win but less confident that it will happen. It could definitely be 2-1 Wigan with a set piece.
Same old story - as Wigan upped their press so we fell away. Wigan LB Robinson is giving Nauts a hard time and he really crosses a lovely ball. Celina needs to up his game and he could have got a shot away in a good position but dawdled on the ball and it was smothered. We need to get a grip, get our passing and movement going and there's 3 points here for us but everybody needs to up their game 10% to get more urgency in our play. And VdH was still grappling his man even after conceding the penalty. Someone needs to have a sharp word.
Stupid penalty given away by Mike. Why? If you can't outjump him then give him a header. It's difficult to score from a header and Woodman has a better chance to save a header than a penalty kick.
