The blades looked flat tonight but surely that had to be, in part, how MT set us up, and we looked really dangerous when we tried to get forward. Our defence held out reasonably comfortably in the end but there were one or 2 heart stopping moments when Viktor and other bodies came to the rescue, coupled with the bottled penalty award of the season which could have made the 2nd half a lot more comfortable for us.
The playing it out from the back started with PW this season, but MT has definitely taken it to another level, and although at times we do lose the ball In dangerous areas, that is the price we will have to pay to change fully how we have been percieved in recent years by other teams (Hoofball).
Still early days with MT but to say the signs are encouraging is an understatement, and now the walking wounded now move on to Luton, and hopefully we can give another really good account of ourselves again. UTM
