3 now, today acceptable ?
Great result today, it doesn't change that the last 4 games weren't though. What encouraged me was that Robins made brave decisions from the start. Not just Ponticelli, which is the obvious one, but combining him with McNulty, a very high back line which pushed our whole team up and gave us options down the middle as well as flanks, letting Vincenti play on the right instead of looking awkward at left mid - there was lots he got spot on today.
It changes nothing for me yet though as we've performed great against the good teams all season. I still think we've got the best squad in this league, I still think we should already be top of the league by a mile, I still think there's a lot of time left in the season, I still have serious question marks over our tactics against shit defensive teams - of which there will be many more like that than playing a high open game like Luton. If the next time we play such a team Robins continues to be brave, surprise and achieve a better balance between attacking and defending I'll be delighted as it will be the start of making the difference between play offs and autos.
Sometimes I think you don't read what is being said and just dismiss comments that aren't glowing praise without processing what's actually being said.
