I think that was a fair cop last season. I don’t think it’s fair at all this season. In fact, the worst performance was when we backed off the high line. The high line goals that look worst were players in Loke and Edwards coming in and playing people onside or not being covered well enough or being 100% prepared.

I think we’ll see something else this game as neither Loke or Smith is fast enough to play a high line. Or against Randall and these Newcastle boys aren’t much slower. 

I wonder if we’ll see Piper playing off Eze or Eze playing off Piper…
That has to come back to the manager though, if you're playing guys like them with less than a handfull of pro starts and expecting them to slot in to a system like that without making a mistake.

 
Yeh, it’s a gamble that we’ll score more. I think we’ve already had more shots than all of last season!

We have to use some tactics. And attacking tactics we’re familiar with is better than something we’re not.
