In the post match thread on Tuesday I mentioned we needed to play more direct, which is what we have done this game. It's not the prettiest, but it is working, helped by all the players putting in a good shift.
Enjoying this so far. Solid performance, we look threatening up front, nice goal from Pratley. Leko and Bonne working hard, Gallagher bossing the midfield, defence looking solid and organised, some lovely interventions from the Nabster, Matthews has put in a good shift too. Need a second goal and to keep a high level of concentration to take the 3 points.
Although BeckenSarr is lined up at left-back and Ben Purr further forward there have been a few occasions when Ben Purr has dropped back almost alongside him so that the pair of them have faced down Bowen and then the rest of the defence have shuffled further to the right to give them some room.
I dont know what we're playing as Matthews is Right Back but we dont have someone playing Right Mid
Almost as though Bowyer has spotted something with how Hull play down Bowen's flank and is exploiting it
I'm sure it 3-5-2 which as you know means both Purrington and Matthews are getting forward. 3-5-2 can become 5-3-2 when under the cosh.

When we've got the ball or Hull have it their left it's certainly looked like a back four but the defence shifts around when it's on their right with Bowen.

Either way you may be more comfortable on a chair
but looking pretty comfortable
Ooh, that looked close!
At least you didn't make a complete arse of yourself by slipping over as you took your kick or the ball bouncing 5 tines before reaching the goal.
How did that ball get through our defence?
