Me too. At the same time I was pretty close to vomiting when Murillo cleared off the line!
As per above comments its great that we are now more flexible with our tactics and formations, credit Vitor for that.
My only concern is the defensive solidity doesnt quite seem to be there, we panic and flap at set pieces like we did did when we were first promoted, particularly when trying to see the game out.
I'm not sure that ever really went away did it? I know we did well at shutting down games last season but it was still pretty scrappy at times.
Surely we should be getting a proper set piece coach in the summer (that is actually supported by whoever the manager is going to be). Particularly as they are likely to tweak the rules on set pieces due to Arsenal's dominance on them.
I think a set piece coach started work a few days ago but I can't remember his name.
Poor bloke. He’ll think he’s taken on the local pub team when he sees us in action.
