Clearly stems from Michael Beale who wrote in depth about it before https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.garycurneen.com/single-post/2017/09/09/PREPARING-FOR-PRE-SEASON-BY-ANDREW-WISEMAN%3F_amp_ gmcf, Rum Ham, Dado'sMulls and 10 others 13 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Al 55 9,503 Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Better than with 11? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GA1972 10,308 Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 We looked well drilled/prepared at playing with 10 both in that Aberdeen game and on Thursday night I thought initially that leaving Flanagan exposed was suicide when they were already targeting him in the first half but he defended well second half and Arfield put in a hell of a shift to help him out Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmcf 35,372 Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Have to admit I feared the worst at HT , given the standard of the opposition . But SG or MB , handled it well , very well . It might have watered down our attack , but we held them quite comfortably defensively . Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Courtyard Bear 41,357 Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 That’s a great read, had to read it twice to take it all in mind you. I would’ve went 4-4-1 in the second half more to protect Tav and Flanagan, but reading that you can see exactly what we were trying to do. I think Micheal has a lot of say on how we play and Im bloody glad Stevie brought him in. jintybear 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laudrup1984 25,100 Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 10 MEN, WE ONLY NEED 10 MEN! I thought we were brilliant. With 10 men we were even better. Still created numerous chances and they created nothing. After playing with 10 men on Thursday as well, to follow up with this today was simply heroic. Today is a HUGE day.

With 11 I feel he is too loose in play and trying to be fancy going forward With 10 it is like he is told "defend like fuck" and he just does that.
