Our midfielders are failing to give our attacking outlets the ball in the right areas. We've got great wingers and strikers but they can't do shit without the ball or with the ball facing away from goal etc. Alex Smith and Manny Muscat don't possess the distribution skills to open up defenses and put our attackers in good positions.
David Chote made a pertinent comment today in that a pass is often very dependent on striker movement. He was miffed at one stage when some midfielder made another unsuccessful pass to Fenton (who was the only one making a run) because of the constant problem of our two strike men virtually stationary (and usually just 10 metres apart)...So basically, David Chote was saying "what is our midfield sposed to do?"
