Was absolutely awesome today!
Strange today. Almost like Tavs was playing wing back and Smudge crept into rh central defence.immense display
the way he kept appearing in the middle of the park to win the ball
There was a clear tactical instruction because we kept saying ‘why is Smith there?’ He followed Mcginn into the middle when he drifted, Tavs moved to right back and Kluivert to the right wing. It happened continually.Strange today. Almost like Tavs was playing wing back and Smudge crept into rh central defence.
Remember when he nearly reduced Maddison to tears by following him all over the pitch? Still makes me laugh now.There was a clear tactical instruction because we kept saying ‘why is Smith there?’ He followed Mcginn into the middle when he drifted, Tavs moved to right back and Kluivert to the right wing.

What’s interesting to me is he always did this at Rayo. So for the first 8 or so games did he not instruct us to do it for some reason or did he and the players just didn’t get it or follow instructions? Guess we will never know and it’s water under the bridge.One of the key improvements in my view is the clever movement of defenders to fill the gaps that we saw loads of initially. Both central defender moving into that opposition no. 10 space and Smithy moving in there today. It's really clever and seems to have made us much more solid.
I think it's easy for us to forget what looks natural like today, is the result of understanding between players, understanding between players and manager, all of which takes time to learn and implement.What’s interesting to me is he always did this at Rayo.
