Shadow over Adrian
With everything going brilliantly this afternoon the lad allowed Burnley back into the game on the hour after we had taken a two goal lead.
Despite appealing for a free kick he was clearly responsible for failing to collect a routine cross and allowed George Boyd to give his team some hope.
We all love the stopper.He has a brilliant rapport with the fans but he hasn’t been covering himself in glory this season with the Mario Balotelli ‘ruck’ and high leg which could have seen him get a second yellow.
Phil Parkes told us in a recent interview that it would be wrong to drop him and that he really had to learn from his mistakes as he is a late starter in first team terms given his long wait for the job at Real Betis before then being plunged into the Premiership.
Jussi Jaakalainen maybe watching and wondering at the moment! This isn’t a crisis because the rest of the team are playing so well but it’s a situation that we are sure the manager is keeping a very keen eye on.
