He played that at Villa in the cup last year; we played so far up the pitch Villa couldn’t pass out the back. So they went long, and the Centre backs won everything
It was massive blueprint for him, so many positives. Cut the passing lanes out and win the header from the long balls. Yes you may get caught, but you also increase your chances of scoring - and we create very very little from open play
He went 3 at the back at Burnley, we battered them. It went wrong at Wolves, his arse went and he just went back to his bread and butter. Flat back 4, flat midfield 4, long ball and keep it tight
