Have been seeing the subject of our D pop up in a lot of other threads. Perhaps it should have a home of its own right here.
I'm going to kick off with what will no doubt be a hotly contested view.
I don't think the philosophy behind our D is Broken. I dont think we need a total overhaul.
I think that as our results proved we just didn't have the players capable this year to get it right. The main issue was Tom. He reads the game so well and 9 out of 10 times in the correct place when he needs to be.
Without the likes of Tom, Walker and others covering the up and in wingers from behind we were destined to fail.
A full fit preseason to return and reload and we will be back to a brick wall.
