They just seemed lacking in confidence in the first half, and all of the Back 5 made elementary errors, letting ball roll under the foot, short back passes and Will’s drop. The forward players too were tentative.
Second half, well Dave May say tactical pointers, I just saw a team told to go out and express themselves. Dale was superb and the LB didn’t know whether it was Christmas or Easter and his attitude seemed to get the rest going. Lovely play for the first goal, supreme skill for the second, a cracking strike for the third and a well worked 4th - will make for good watching on Quest later and I hope that Deano is on to watch it. The forward thinking and confident attacking play had them on the back foot and, not only couldn’t their defence cope, but it dragged their attacking players back to help out, relieving the pressure on our defence. Great to see in the second half that the FBs were back on their game, the CBs passing inventively and accurately and Will having not lost his confidence - coming to punch and catch the high ball not seen at Gresty Road since Clayton Ince left.
COYRs!!!
