He did indeed, and I did think of that. I remember at the time we had the smallest team ever seen finishing the game, with Newcastle absolutely bullying us. I'm not sure if it was smart thinking or if he'd given up. Either way, it was going to work sometimes, but by and large his last 10 minutes when we were often chasing in games were just carnage with no sense of any structure.
That's why I liked yesterday, felt more like tweaks, with just a bit more energy and the same structure.
