    That's how it is every time bahre plays really. If he's wide he isn't really wide, we've had a few players in that position like that in recent years so I didn't think anything was different yesterday

    Yep three at the back. Williams was given licence to get forward but still played in a back three. No way it was a diamond with how wide Oduor played.

    Jordan’s weakness is clearly his throw ins! I was much happier that Clarke was taking them - I know Struber talked about his back 3 but it looked fluid to me - sometimes Clarke left part of the diamond, sometimes left wing back - it fooled Boro so fooled me n’all. I especially liked the cover on the left side with them both - we were rarely exposed!
    Now concentrate on keeping the ball down with our shooting! Lean forward, I was always told, never ever lean back!

    Just as wide as when Thomas plays on the right of the diamond or when Simoes played on the left of it the other week

    Disagree. Particularly with regards to Simoes who played a lot narrower. The fact that both the players and manager saw it as a 3/5 at the back also tends to suggest it was.
