This....

I don't think it was the subs we were under pressure so we tried to change things (plus save some legs for midweek)
As the game moved on we got dragged into a survival mindset, looking to hold what we had.
This is extremely dangerous against good teams. Inviting pressure normally doesn't work out well.
