    They did enough and that’s all you can say really .
    We haven’t played with the same tenacity of late and that’s more an observation than a criticism .
    When Val wanted the fifty points our intensity was immense opposition players had no time on the ball whatsoever and was showcased v Chelsea where as soon as they got the ball one of our players were onto them .
    We havnt played like that in a few games after and indeed seemed to dwell on the ball and imo cases where some players thought probably through confidence they could give them more time and thought they could have more time and played around with it more than they ought to .
    It’s more a strategy question than individuals but I’d be interested to know why our energy changed and the substitutions of 3 Knackered players for eager new ones where you could see the oppositions heads go down knowing they gonna face same tenacity .
    As I say not a criticism just wondering
     
    Kettlewell and 55&counting like this.
