Thought it was interesting that in the club interview, when asked about what he made of the game, Still talked about observing people's body language and attitudes pretty early on in his answer. Might be nothing and I'm just reaching, but not necessarily the usual cliché stuff

He also said 'We've pushed them hard physically, which isn't something they've really been used to. We had some tired legs out there today. But we need to be fit, we need to be very fit - and we will be'

 

Sounds like he’s worked out a few of the lazy bastard’s already? if you don’t run and work in his team, you’ll be out.
The energy in the second half was a massive improvement on the first half team. That was shown when late in the second half we lost the ball but I noticed 4 players closed the Eastleigh player down straight away and won the ball back. Not a lot of that went on in the first half.
