So Ricketts played a great game last night. His footwork was spot on and his finishes were there. I just hope this doesn't go to his head.
I noticed after his two goals, he was more inclined to hold on to the ball and deek through 3-4 guys rather than pass it off to his wide open teammates. I also noticed other starting to do this - either becuase they wanted a piece of the glory - or because they were fed up and said 'if you won't give me the ball I'll just take up myself' - a la Robert.
Although I think they players played well, I'm just concerned that they are not playing as well as a team as they could. I see players electing to take on multiple defenders by themseleves rather than use thier teamates to achieve the same goal.
Thoughts???
