Port Vale Thread

Dont know about that Jeff.On saturday both fullbacks got stitched up on more than one occasion.
Someone had to go in field and press the ball as there three mids were causing all kinds of problems and the space left was exploited.
As a previous post i said our wide men were reluctant to do this and were more concerned with the opposing fullbacks joining in.
I presume they were playing to instuctions,so tactically we were all over the place for 30 minutes.
Murphys not a natural fullback,but i would love to see him in a holding centre mid role,and then we can see his true game.
PS thought Burton did ok when he came on
 
Murphy did OK going forward when he wasn't putting the ball out of play and over-hitting his forward passes. However, he was skinned by his winger far too many times for my liking. That is where he is most vulnerable, and totally unsuited to the full back position.
 
Your probably right redraine,he does struggle against real pace,but put proccy,joycy or any other centre mid in that position and they would struggle as well.
 
Murphy got skinned on many occasions and looked lost when on the ball. At the moment there isnt too many options for a replacement but sure hope Coleys looking for one quick.
