It should never be underestimated the importance of hard work and playing for the manager. This squad seem to be willing to work harder than most for their manager.
the game develops and changes and some managers embrace it and some are wedded to their own tactics. I critics FARKE for being an arrogant self obsessed coach who refuses to change. That theory is wrong however as DF has moved to a long throw routine weeks ago. I reckon he has looked at his squad which is lacking up front and decided to use the weapons he invested in and that would mean he doesn’t need to have Dan James who is now out for 8 weeks and he doesn’t need Okafor or Aaronson. He now has 3/4 strikers who would love to work as a 2 up top and I include Gnonto who shouldn’t be underestimated as a second striker. He’s done that for Italy. He also has Okafor who can do it. He has at his disposal 3 CBs plus Bornauw, 2 wing backs plus Justin a shed load of DMs so why not use what you have. I believe he is recognising he has more success playing to his strongest weapons and if he carries on getting a tune out of this andngetsnsime ammo up front in January he may have 2 real systems to use and swap. The ball is firmly in his court now. I was happy after we lost to City but because we won the second half 2-1 and obviously happy last night. We have scored 5 and conceded 2 in the last 135 minutes which is a massive improvement on the 12 previous games
