    Val said he played to the strengths and weaknesses of the players he'd got and that meant hoof ball and high press.
    In his favour he did have some good players to bring on as substitute for those on the pitch, especially forwards.
    I bet he'd struggle to find a way to get the current lot to play to any system.

    I’ve always thought that. It was a brilliant season and kept me going through Covid but looking back I always felt football was a bit false in that period.
