Much better! (granted WBA, didn't show much fight)
Still, the logic behind Kenny's team is now much clearer, quality,
youth, experience and energy makes a nice Balance!
Henderson's tracking was much better today (need that, imo,
playing 4-4-2), allowing Lucas to make the key interceptions
further infield (fewer holes). Skrtel, lively and concentrated
(i think, playing with a quicker player like Agger (instead of Carra),
let's them share responsibilities across the back more evenly).
Carrol & Suarez causing problems up front! Enrique immense
(some buy!) & Lucas MOTM, imo.
Mainly though, it was our shape when we didn't have the ball
that was impressive! Clarke is earning his crust on the training
pitch. It just shows, imo, if we work on getting the basics (tracking,
pressuring) right, there's enough quality in the side to create
chances up the other end.
The other thing is, the team really looks like there's a lot more to come
from them. Wonder what Comolli is up to ahead of January?
