Exactly, it's a game of opinions nobody suggested there was a right or wrong answer and that every qualified coach should do the same. I've known for a long long time that these qualified us fans critisice so regularly tend to know a lot more than supporters. Some people need reminding from time to time.

When I was a youngster I would have been on here saying why don't we keep 2 up on the halfway line that way they have to have at least 3 back to cover. However back then I viewed football in a far more simple and basic way (judging forwards by goalscoring records only etc), and didn't understand more of the complexities of the game nor the tactical side of the game.

Defending corners is a great example.
