Then on Monday we went away to a good but extremely direct team but were largely untroubled by a succession of long balls, set pieces and long throws. This is now.. a bad thing!?!
I should’ve added that we dealt, mostly, pretty well with the arial challenge on Monday…I did say as much earlier in the thread though.

Do you think that was a good performance on Monday? Apart from heading balls away from our box, were you impressed with how we played?
