    The idea is to allow full backs to go wide and negate wingers. 3rd time I have seen it this season. It can be a really clever tactic if we turn over possession and the full backs go high. We have Cirkin showing a massive willingness to go forward as a result. I think it is a smart tactic at times.

    He's come on so much since last season. I know it's obvious but he reminds me a lot of his brother - the way he plays the game, the football arrogance he's starting to gain, strolling around the pitch. Hope we can hold into him for a while yet

    Jobe booked for his first tackle of the second half yet Tanaka got away with 3 in the first half

    Just dint think it works against teams playing 1 CF, leaves 3 CBs against 1 CF. I'd rather have 2 CDMs in front blocking the space

    Vibrating watch. It was so quick though that he wouldn't have had time to blow.

    If that's a yellow for Jobe, Tanaka should have been sent off twice.
