United v Sevco

[tHeArAb]

Far better result than I anticipated. The important thing now is to try build on that.

Lots of folk mentioning the defensive strategy & the three/five at the back being as a result of the two 4-0 humpings. We actually played three at the back in one of those humpings, then played four at the back for the next five matches until the Sheep game. We then reverted back to a back four for another two games after that. Whilst it is a very cautious approach, I'm not sure it can be blamed on the two 4-0 humpings. It seems like it's a system the manager wanted to play vs the bigger teams Celtic, Rangers, then Aberdeen and is one he's seen has since /worked in terms of containing teams & picking up points, so has taken into certain other games. Certainly doesn't seem like a knee jerk reaction to the two 4-0 defeats.
