Yesdee

Been reflecting on the tictacs yesdee, in particular later in the game. I think Watford went three at the back.

Now our usual approach to that would be to throw on an extra midfielder or defender and try to hold on. But I think that was when JHT threw on Onel and Stacey, with the specific intent of attacking the large space they had left in their LB position with just three back. This then gave them a massive problem, and we got in very dangerous positions through those two (and then Gordon) several times.

Excellent real time reading of the oppo and adaptation.
