I got the impression they were playing deep by order to cover the slow defence, in which case jacking up the defence a bit should lead to a more positive midfield and more penalty box action.
Now, with that I agree.
Shez likes clean sheets. If you get a clean sheet you get one point, at least. Leak goals and you have an uphill battle. And, Shez's first task is to make sure we are not relegated no matter what it takes in terms of style of football.
We have "no scoring forwards" up top but if we can convert that to a couple of "scoring" forwards maybe the opposition won't be so relaxed about releasing men to attack and this might allow our midfield to get further upfield in a controlled way.
Graham Smith is giving the impression that more than one incoming signing is currently being worked on so it could be interesting to see who the others are if Boden is one of them.
