Doesn't look like Ryan Bertrand was a fan of Mark Hughes either...

    IMG mwans Image. It's just saying that Bertrand is saying we get the freedom to attack and press finally, Something we haven't done under Mark hughes.

    Also we attack as a unit, Aggressively.

    As you can't see the image here's what Ryan posted (it was some text on a plain background)...

    'Clear tactical instruction allowing us to get close to teams and press high, agrresive and as a unit. And we got our rewards.

    FINALLY'

    I just hope that he brings his A game when/if he gets back into the team.

    Ryan is quality and I’m confident that he will love playing under Ralph. There were a couple of times today when Matty should have been higher up the pitch; Ryan will be.

    Far too much reading between the lines there ...

    It doesn't really require much reading between the lines.

    First home game after the old manager got sacked and the very first thing Ryan has said since Hasenhuttl arrived is 'Clear tactical instruction', bookended with 'FINALLY'.

    Depends how you want to look at it really. The finally could be that "we got our rewards" as you could argue we have been unlucky/hard done by a fair bit this season.

    I think it is probably a dig at Hughes but I can see why it could be seen a different way

    Still, mentioning the 'clear tactical instruction' as your very first comment is very telling. Consciously or subconsciously.

    I can't see how it could possibly be taken as anything other than a dig at Hughes. And Pellegrino, and probably Puel as well.

    I just find it a little bit classless and almost making excuses for his own form. I'd much rather that he got his head down and did his talking on the pitch tbh.

    Is that in fact a ref to the lines drawn on the pitch for tactics like the airport comment ?

    The bit where Hughes never presses is a clue as well.

    You mean he wasn't in charge for 2013/14?

    Felt like he was here that long tbh.

    Nah, we pressed quite a bit under MP2, just not amazingly well. Don't make me start a "Pellegrino was actually good" argument again, they don't go very well for me.
