What else is he going to do though. He did what you have to do against these teams, be patient, use width and hope that we take our chances.
If anyone thinks that launching it long constantly with Caulker and Turner at the back would have won us the game is clutching at straws. When we played it long we got bullied off it. If our players (and the ref) had made better decisions we would have won the game, as we also would have against Norwich and also as we would have against WBA.
