We must be at crossed purposes , for me holding the ball up is receiving it back to goal, holding off your marker and laying off to advancing midfielders or wide to the wing backs thus allowing us as a team to get up the pitch . He did that once in the 2nd half to Ossie Kakay .
When I say run out of gas I mean that speed over 2 or 3 yards to challenge for a loose ball time and again (re the offside goal)
I stood up and applauded him off , but when I read that he "ran his socks off" and "challenged for every header " I feel that they should be a given . Dom Ball managed it in every time he was asked to play .
We can agree on your last words although I think we also all agree that Willock is going to sold , maybe sooner than we want , there is a poll on the board about an acceptable fee.
How will we get the best from Dykes if that happens ?
First half was good , closing down , had the edge over his marker and won some headers , blistering shot on target to win the corner and a deft header for his goal.
Second half not so good IMO , ran out of gas earlier than both Willock and Amos , held the ball up just once and asleep for a loose ball which ended up in our net 30 secs later , ruled offside .
The Ex pros who have suffered played when the ball absorbed a gallon of water , the tech involved in todays balls makes that impossible .
Thats where the controls should be IMO , the ball manufacturers to produce a "safe approved ball" and maybe restrictions on heading training for juniors and limits on it for pros.
Do you suddenly grow a thick skull on your 13th birthday ?
and issue cautions and sending off ? .. for kids ?
