    Heard them talking a bit about Dubai but didn’t quite catch all of it...are we able to go to Dubai after the 2nd?

    Couldn't ask for much better really, could've easily been 5 or 6. Defence and keeper are still a worry though.

    The 442 diamond system is exactly the formation to counter their 433.

    Id be keen to hear why you think it’s not.

    Great performance! Soro & Turnball are just superb! Only worry was Juliens injury and being very wasteful infront of goal. We wouldn’t get half as many chances on Saturday, so need to make them count!

    Key to Saturday will be geeing up Frimpong to go against Barisic. Get him on the backfoot early. Christie has to offer plenty help.

    Another win and clean sheet which is great.

    Still not totally convinced by us though. If we give the Huns the chances Utd had on the break they’ll definitely punish us.

    Hopefully we’ve another level to go up for Saturday.

    Nope. Which will create more space for us to damage in the final third.

    Lennon can not second guess himself. We have to play the narrow diamond with 2 up front. 2 strikers gives their full backs something to think about before bombing forward. Soro is doing a great job of protecting the defence. Only downside is the injury to Jullien. We cannot be scared of them or adapt to try and nullify them. Attack them high up the pitch, press in numbers like we have been doing and if they bomb both fullbacks forward, our movement and interchange of the front four or five will do the rest.

    I think we are going to turn them over.

    2-0 to the Sam Browne’s. Bookmark it.

    It'd be so Lennon to think that was our best game of the season and then revert back to playing one up top with Brown in the middle.

    Actually thought without making any outstanding saves Barkas looked more confident today, bhoy Hazard did brilliantly saving 2 penalties but no too worried about the goalie spot

    Good win and should have been 5 or 6. Scoreline flattered them.

    Barkas just seems so small.
    Short of confidence beyond belief.
    Defence was better today but still caught up chasing the ball. Will get caught out Saturday.
    Other than that looked assured today

    Oh, man. I assumed it'd be at 7 or 8? How can they have it at 3 on a work day?

    Good win. More confidence and momentum. Clean sheet again. Another step in the right direction.
