[Lord Snooty]

So the fans on social media have gone from blaming everything on our misfiring strikers, to blaming everything on Pearson and Lees.

They're not playmakers. They're defenders. At which they do a good job. Yes they're slow and past their best, but you aren't going to change Matty Pearson into Aaron Mooy. Stop expecting them to. If the opponents are pressing them and nobody in midfield is showing for it, you're gonna get a rushed hoof or a negative backwards pass.
