The most important thing about today surely, is that we played in a system that suited the players we have perfectly, so good shout to Bostonian I think it was who called it last week. The system is one that surely will DG will be almost forced into keeping, so effective was it. The back three were superb and that, lets not forget, is without arguably the quickest defender we have, Galinski to I assume come back as well.
Personally I would actually single out the two wing backs for special praise for without their forward runs and staggering fitness levels this system can't work. It was also noticeable as well that with the balance 3-5-2 gave us combined with the natural width Bore and Sensara provided, the midfield had so much more room to play, especially coming forward and the front two looked s though they had bee playing together for yonks in fact I cant think of anyone who played poorly, and I bet that wont happen often this season
As for wingers, certainly a left sided one, playing like this and to this formation we wont need any!
Good result against a strong opponent, good performance and a great system, most enjoyable and optimism is now restored
