I felt that we passed it through their lines much better last night. It might have helped that they pressed us a bit, rather than just sitting back, so it made space in behind their pressing, but it was much better nonetheless.
Our work rate off the ball tonight was tremendous. I know the headlines will be about the goals and Fatawu, but we dictated the game when they had the ball, our pressing was outstanding. This was led, as it has been many times before, by our number 9. As good as other players were tonight...
The biggest worry for Alves and Braybrooke isn’t that they’re not getting minutes, it’s that we sell them for 50 marbles to try and meet financial targets (which we won’t anyway).
