    We seem to have found a football team. Lots of space that might suit Dibling

    I can't believe how much better we are, it's ridiculous. It's like watching football again. Bit concerned about energy levels, but the Vicar and Archer should help maintain this if needed.

    Very good half apart from the first 5 minutes. Tall Paul doing everything except scoring! Sugawara a big threat down the right. Fernandes class again. Lesley looks a completely different player.

    Ot it may be that he just needs a few weeks to recalibrate…
    Think he’s capable of playing with more pace and adventure, but he’s had it coached out of him.

    Everything but a goal.

    They finally look like they're playing football not cheap exhibition stuff.

    Should be in front though.

    I can see it now. Dibling comes on, and scores the winner.

    Have to start taking some of these chances, but **** me this is a huge improvement. Passion, aggression, urgency. Lovely.

    Intent, intensity, directness, creativity, passion, belief, energy and aggression. Everything that's been missing from our performances so far this year. Really hope TP can bury one second half as it could herald the start of something. We seem to have our team back.

    Tall paul will be off at 60 minutes. He must be knackered. Already is my man of the match.
    Oh what joy to see us play this way, thoroughly enjoyable

    It’s amazing how different we look. No new players, no time to implement new methods, just different instructions.
