Making tackles is fine, it’s then giving the ball away immediately after.
Saturday when Yates came on the urgency in midfield went up miles and we looked better

He’s made some great tackles, but also let the Wolves midfield walk past him a decent amount of times.
He seems fine off the ball but my complaint with him is how limited he seems as soon as he’s got the ball. It’s just your generic sideways pass to Anderson or one of the fullbacks. You’d expect more from a player we paid such a high fee for. Hopefully he progresses.

This is why looking at stats is meaningless. If the balls given away immediately afterwards is it really a successful tackle? The bloke is hopeless
