I always knew a back 5 had it’s benefits, I just didn’t know what they were.
Magnificent first half performance, more please.
I think for the first time that was a genuine back 3 which is a very positive system. Previous incarnations have been a back 5.
A back 5 leaves your midfield exposed whereas a back 3 allows you to dominate a decent midfield.
Well done to Andy and the whole team but particularly the back 3.
