    No, you're in a parallel universe, where Saints play like a proper team, and Man City are a bunch of individuals, not a team....

    It’s been the Ralph press. It’s made them look so much better.

    We have a very clear shape and approach here. 5-3-2 out of posession and I think 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1 in posession. Pressing triggers are being used. Direct play and on the front foot, aggressive with and against the ball.

    Its not the team we have seen so far under Jones.

    Even when being pushed back we are leaving someone forward to keep their CBs from coming too far forward, which is a good tactic.
