Re: So do you drop Muric after two massive costly howlers?
I don't think I am. The quotes from both Mcguiness and Cathro both imply the use of studs as the first touch to give then a slight advantage in being able to play both ways. As soon as you take a touch with the sidefoot it attracts the press from one side, it's a trigger for the press and you then ...

"You may regard it as bad technique but that's because youve been you've been raised with British values.

Yes, 100% effort, but positioning and decision making aren't good enough. We'd sell him at a loss.

Re: So do you drop Muric after two massive costly howlers?
The last two goals we have conceded are down to Muric's lack of concentration, nothing else.
For all the weak performances we've seen from Trafford I really don't think he'd have messed up as Muric has in these last 2 games

I think it would be good to take Trafford out of the firing line. I also think it would help his development.
Muric would start as No1.
Cooper is excellent, and would provide a serious challenge to Muric.

It will be interesting to see if players lose confidence in passing back to AR. If they do then one of his best attributes won't be any use.
