Your midfield has to be more compact when defending. at times, we were too spread out which allowed the Bahrainains too much space in our center area.
We need to be more consistant when bringing up the ball from the defence, at times, we were trying to find John who was alone most of the time with 2,3 defenders on him. If the ball is worked and put on his feet, he will be much more effective. This will also allow Bahrain to have less time on the ball. We have the talent on this team to play this way.
Good Luck!
