You don't throw out long passes in your own 20metres. It's common knowledge and taught from a young age. It increases the risk of turning the ball over near your own line. Last night showed why it shouldn't be done.
No, it was a fair idea, terribly executed, watch the replay there was tons of space down the flanks and if it had gone to hand we would have been watching a break out from deep, with out pace it could have gone the length, as it was, the pass was a shocker and we lost the ball, not an uncommon thing all night all told.
In fact, the one thing that can be said is, if we learn to catch, we will be brilliant.
