I'm on a tactical mission now. Have another look at the Canterbury second goal. One of their CFs shows for the ball and Matt does the right thing in tracking him. The other CF makes a nice angled run in behind Matt and the ball gets played to him (classic training ground move - we used to call 'hole in the pocket'). Tristan doesn't even get near him. Hope the coaching team are looking at these videos and noticing a theme. This is what happens when you play a LB at CB and don't tell him to get tight on his man and goalside - maybe it was a half-arsed attempt at an offside trap. Just because he's our best player doesn't mean he doesn't need some coaching from time to time.
