One thing I've enjoyed about us this season

is that for the first time, consistently, for quite a few seasons, we're attacking with numbers. Alex Neil was quite an attacking minded, if naïve manager, but even then there were rarely the numbers getting into the box that we usually have now.

It might seem such a simple thing, but last season it was really quite rare for us to have more than 1 person in the box, which was why good positions did not convert into goals nearly as often as they do now. So much harder to defend against.

    - We were learning a whole new system with players who perhaps were not up to it... (NCFC) - Dandy Highburyman, Nov 25, 18:41:32
  - Tetty has also been totally transformed with the ball at his feet (NCFC) - Maillot Jaune, Nov 25, 18:28:12
    - Partly because his job is simpler; win ball, give it to leitner (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Nov 25, 20:00:11
  - I agree. There must have been at least 9 games where I felt we deserved more than we got. (NCFC) - Huge Small, Nov 25, 18:10:21
  - Also,with forward thinking players we've got now we've got the lags (NCFC) - protheroe fitzgibbon, Nov 25, 18:03:24
