Re: Midfield ruling the roost
derbybluegreat set of midfielders in the squad now, all so comfortable on the ball and happy to mix it too
Paik and Iwata understandably taking all the plaudits with their consistency
but when TGH and Lennie can just rock up and put on a performance like that in what is, lets face it, a third rate tournament - just shows the great strength in depth and attitude
over the years we’ve had maybe one or two good players in the middle of the park, but struggling to think of a 4/5 man collective that we’ve got right now though
owning the middle of the pitch is what leads to dominating the games i’m sure
Not taking last night to tell us much, but otherwise completely agree and makes me think about the endless comments like this from the summer:
"Do we really need another midfielder?"
"Why are we obsessed with signing midfielders?"
"How many midfielders is that now?"
