Our use of Delap....

He's a monster of a striker isnt he! But I'm wondering if we could/ should be looking to mix up our play a bit more?

We like to build from the back, and that , at this level has its risks which were all too apparent yesterday. Muric has a good pass on him to Davis which we used a few times in the first half, so why not the longer, accurate pass to the exorcet missile, that Delap is, to catch thd defenders out. I'm not saying too do this at every opportunity, but mix it up occasionally and utilise all of Delaps strengths. It would also reduce these soft gift goals that we appear at risk of giving away as we get the ball away from our own box quicker. Thoughts?

But not just Delap, Liz - we need to mix it up a bit across the park and according to who we are playing. Sadly, at the moment we seem to have one game plan only.
