You do spout some guff.
If you hadn't noticed he is a defender, it's his primary job.
He was pushed back by their excellent RWB Sang who put in some absolutely quality crosses, MacDonald had no choice due to no natural left sided player giving him a dig out, it's sometimes the quality of the opposition not the bleeding tactics.
Do I? There were plenty of times where we had the ball on the right and there were acres of space from McDonald to run into but didn't, and we ended up passing back to the keeper instead of making the switch that were usually really good at
