Many on here had bemoaned the fact that players were not playing in their favoured positions. Playing a 4-4-2 or 4-5-1 with one natural winger made us unbalanced. So the change in tactics seemed sensible. We got a solid if unspectacular performance.
Let’s see what happens Tuesday with selections and formations.
Certainly food for thought as you say let see what Tuesday reveals.
For me it's a please let's not return to the tippy tappy stuff that only gets us into trouble..
