See your point, but I noticed what RUS is saying - amazingly, it was even more obvious with Santos, who knew when he just needs to stay back and cover. A bit early to get carried away, but it all looks to me like TV's brought in an entirely new level of communication and understanding.Anzac said:RUS arsenal said:Song instantly covered in the CB position. Nice to see the team on the same wavelength and showing good awareness.Anzac said:TV could have undone all his good work when he went on a run upfield from defence after we'd taken the lead;
Point is that it was unneccessary in the first place,
particularly as Song & Co had earlier started to drift further upfield around the final 3rd.
The point of "unnecessary risk" could be generalized for the team (though I'm not sure the verdict would be clear cut in any of the instances): Chez stunts ("live wire" - as in "fixing the electricity with live wires"), Mert (he'd actually be an example of not playing with fire, till that sorry moment), TV as you said (I'm generally on his side though), Santos, Santos, Santos (and Song - though much less than the past, even Rambo has his share). But in general this team is moving away from self distruction, it's just not job done yet.
