Beholder Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Honestly didn't realise Bruce was such an attack minded manager did you? So refreshing to see. We haven't been this attacking since..when? . I can't even remember. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wilfsmith Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Thought last night felt like the early days of Carlos again when we pressed from the start of games and put teams on the back foot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much better than the shi**ing dog formation just outside our own penalty box under joz...! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not going down, only option is to go for whatever you can get..Its a long shot, but whats the point of not giving it a go? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Womble Owl Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 2nd half kick off, no pass backwards, Fernando goes straight on an attacking run. That summed it up for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce will probarbly take the game to the opposites, absolutely sure. Bannan will play deep offensive, first choice to the position, with Forestieri pace to the attack will find the spaces, absolutely sure.

S36 OWL Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 The addition of pace into the team has had a massive effect . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great to see Hutchinson tackling and breaking up attacks around the half way line then haring forward to press their keeper. Always worries me when he plays deep and lunges in around the penalty area. So much has changed in Brucie’s short time here. than Brucie’s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldishowl Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 We need to see if it continues. We didn’t play this way prior to last two games which have been against two sides which like to play football from the back. Like sides did to us when Jos had us doing it the obvious thing to do is press high and try and force the errors. It has worked. We need to keep doing it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
