When Preston finally decided to press us, you can tell we're getting better at dealing with that as we knocked it around really well. Teams will really fear coming to the KP as it looks like press and get picked off or sit deep and have the legs run off you.
 
1st half was a real grind because neither Ndidi or KDH were showing for the ball enough. It's probably the most static I've seen the players in front of the player on the ball so far this season.
I agree with this, although Enzo explained why he thought this happened, as per my post a bit above and the adjustments they made to tackle it.
 
10 games in and it’s clear the system is working, but I’m not sure how well it will do if we get promoted.

There are still a lot of square pegs in round holes, so hopefully as players continue to develop, or through transfers, we will get even stronger…

Ricardo was playing a bit further forward, when he came into midfield while we had the ball, but it was clogging things up and not giving any space to pick through them. This wasn’t helped by the fact that Preston set up slightly differently to how we had planned, so in the second half, when he moved into midfield, he went a bit deeper, next to Winks, to allow more space to exploit.

That’s roughly how Enzo explained it on RL after the game, anyway.
Very impressive!
