Blackpool manager Mick McCarthy has praised Nottingham Forest loanee Josh Bowler for the way he adapted in playing a different role in his last outing.
Bowler, who is spending the rest of the season on loan with his former club after a failed move to Olympiacos, usually plays in a wide position. But a formation change from McCarthy for the FA Cup clash against Southampton saw him deployed in a midfield three.
Blackpool fell to a 2-1 defeat in the game as they failed to cause an upset. But the result didn’t stop the Seasiders’ boss praising the adaptability shown by Bowler.
