    Was a bit of a handful but who would you leave out to accomodate him?
    Would deffo strengthen the squad.

    I hope we stick with 442, we are much better in that shape. Trying to sit back will not work, we need the danger of the attacking outlet otherwise they will pile forward.

    I fully agree that this should be the approach. Compact but with a little more of the ball. It's why I wouldn't be totally shocked to see Rigg in for one of the strikers in the second game. The extra man in midfield to control the game a little at the expense of being quite as explosive on the counter.

    He's brilliant. If we go up, I'd like to see us make a move for him.

    Brilliant Brilliant performance. Not much else to say as it's all been said. Ballard immense Dan Neil cracking game. No one let us down. I asked for 100% leave nothing out there and that's what they all did. Roll on Tuesday won't be easy but we can do it. Haway the lads.
