I actually agreed with Ryan at the time, but I hardly feel bad about being wrong now, and I'm guessing he won't either, because he's not a cunt, and he'll be happy to see some attractive football. I think I said something like "how likely is it we are going to chuck those players on and all of a sudden start playing fast tempo attacking football with intricate passing and players rotating from wide to central positions in a display that will confuse the opposition and bring joy to our fans". But that's exactly what we've done.
And before anyone says don't get carried away, why not? We've all been getting carried away with doom mongering, staring into the abyss, so why not?
There are enough signs by the way, with this formation, that we'd have difficulties, were we not playing Portsmouth, however it's exactly the sort of game we've failed to win.
At any rate, I'm overjoyed, honestly overjoyed just to watch something that is really worth watching.
