Av position map from @WhoScored, plus a completed pass grid.

CBs more noticeable in playing through CMs, but usual CB to WB, WB to ST still visible through McCart to Tanser, Tanser to May/Kerr to McNamara, McNamara to Wotherspoon.

Only 1 pass between May/Wotherspoon...

First goal is a disaster. Drawn a line from our deepest defenders foot, to try and highlight how poor the attempt to hold a line was.

Tanser/McCart deep, playing everyone onside, + wrong side of their player. Gordon/Kerr high, allowing Guthrie a free run to central area.

Second goal comes from May holding the ball to much perhaps? A pass back to McCann whos running laterly, sets him up to play in Tanser who's running into the space May has created. Instead he tries to dribble.

Can already see assister in acres of space/McCart running off scorer.

Obviously have to say the pass was incredible, perfectly weighted for the first time hit, but surely a question of why someone is allowed so much space in a dangerous area. Caught on the counter yes, but opponents in lots of space central before goal v us maybe now a theme?

Against Hamilton, two players find themselves in yards of space beforehand. Red plays simple ball to off screen player, who plays in blue, who scores.

Comes from opponents GK.

Understand this is a downside to a formation that has upsides, but giving top flights attackers this much space, centrally, so often, feels like an issue to me.

This example didn't lead to a goal, but comes from their GK passing to their RB, who has a simple pass to create this

Noticeable, to me watching chances we've conceded back in a row, that with each passing week its becoming more and more common for opposition players to be in the space between midfield and defence. Maybe teams have identified this space as something to try and exploit?
