you wouldn't accuse Hodgson as being too negative then?
by negative if you mean playing two useless workhorses together as holding midfielders,playing with wingers that are there only to help our fullbacks and have zero skill ,pace or ability . then no I wouldn't call hodgson negative [/quote]
can't say I have watched loads of Fulham games recently but in the 0-0 draw with Hamburg, he played both wingers 'wrong-footed' so they cut back inside all the time and made the play very narrow.
The wide midfielders played a mainly defensive role, sitting in front of their full-backs and forming two banks of four and they resorted to knocking long balls into Zamora
