I thought we moved the ball around quite crispy, 70% pass success rate and decent possession first half.

But only in the first two thirds of the pitch.

Then we lost any intent. Kemp dropped very deep and ventured wide to get himself on the ball at every opportunity.

They should have been 2 up by HT at least and they weren't brilliant.

Second half the game was quite open with both sides getting forward more but only Stockport creating clear chances thanks to our lack of protection for the back 4, Charlie Goode being on a poor run of form/confidence and no-o e wanting to take an early shot.

At least we tried to change it up with 30 minutes to go, moving Reid central when Hanlan went off for List.

OK it didn't work.

Which begs the question why move Reid inside to replace Hanlan, he's either better than Hanlan, in which case start him there, or he's not, so don't rotate him into that slot.
I can understand changing shape and putting him up top *alongside* Hanlan for the last 30 when we were chasing, but not the rotation. Pick your best striker and replace him with a *fresh* one when he's tired, don't replace him with the out of form striker you've played wide all game because you didn't trust him to play central.
