00:00Now, on Saturday, I thought Carlos Corbijn got his selection wrong, Albin didn't fire
00:04up the traps, they were 2-0 down before they started doing anything. I think last night
00:09he did exactly the same. Now, he had his reasoning, he had to refresh his team with three games
00:17in six or seven days, but I think the selection maybe went against Albin a little bit last
00:24night and I'll tell you for why. I think players like Tom Fellows, and Tom Fellows, I kind
00:31of agree with him being left out on that point, he rarely completes 90 minutes, he's still
00:36very young into his career, but people like Tom Fellows for me, like Mikey Johnston, I
00:42think if you look back on all their displays for Albin, if they come off the bench they
00:47don't make nowhere near as much impact as if they start the game. That's for one. I
00:53think in two areas he got his selection wrong. I think if Jason Molumbi could come on after
00:5760 minutes last night, I would have liked to have seen him from the start. I think when
01:01Moat and Molumbi were in the middle, that is Albin's best pairing. Albin got overrun
01:05in the first half, far too much space for the opposition to operate in, certainly going
01:09forward. And we'll come on to Jed Wallace. This is a bit of a weird subject, but I don't
01:16understand why Wallace came in and Mikey Johnston didn't. The £3 million summer sign-in,
01:22who we haven't seen from the start yet, with Fellows left out it was a perfect opportunity
01:26to put him in last night. And I just think the selection, even though Albin had a couple
01:32of chances and could have arguably got something for the game, they didn't deserve it, but
01:35they could have done, I think the selection might have just stifled Albin a bit, because
01:41they weren't great in the first half.
