"They are marking double on Drinan... and squashing us to death": Ian Holloway contemplates attacking challenges as Swindon Town struggle for goals

Swindon Town manager Ian Holloway says opponents are doubling up on Aaron Drinan, but a lengthy injury list is making it harder for him to give the striker support.
“Everybody knows how you play and where you are. Everybody can look at your stats, and they are marking double on Drinan. That is absolutely squashing us to death,” Holloway said.
Drinan has scored five of Swindon’s first nine league goals this season.
But Holloway says several of the forwards who could take pressure off him are unavailable, leaving the manager short of different ways to lead the attack.
