IMO

the reason defence snap is we have no out ball when they are under pressure

the midfield should never be more than 20 yards away from the defender with the ball.

If they are more than 30 yards from the nearest out ball they cannot make the pass and forces even more chaotic pressure.

Even in league games we have huge missing hole in the engine.

And the 5 attacking players always run forward when we have ball making the need for accuracy even more pivotal

Against teams that surrender middle of park with weak tactics is ok in Scotland since opposition can't press if they are double marking forwards runners but when you lose ball defence are always stretched.

Even if we had best back 4 in world those tactics would be weak

But to not see that as coach and NOT fix it is serious issue

Cluj Sevco and Copenhagen all applied hard press to the weakness in midfield and it snaps very easily

we have high ball defenders but no high ball forwards

hoping high ball defenders can find long low accurate passes against a well drilled shape is suicide.

The defense panic when pressed cos they have no awareness of space and players around them is a simple task it involves reading the game lifting your head and open your eyes we learned nothing from the first game or we ignored it

But with our back three they would rather just hit n hope or play the chuckles brothers to you to me passing all the signs were there in the first leg for all to see especially in the 2nd half ,,,and our idea to change this ,,,,,,play jozo

a better team would have rode us rotten

We don't have any composure in the back line in the big pressure games especially at this level and the recent sevco games.
I just think Kennedy as a defensive coach isn't getting a strong no nonsense densive unit together. It spreads fear throughout the rest of our team when the heat is turned up.
