Grant talks about Dublin.

As per The Pink Un:

Grant denied that the change in the centre of a defence which had kept clean sheets in City's last two games had been a mistake.

?No, not at all,? he said. ?Dion wants to be judged as a striker, but I also thought I'd maybe need to use him late in the game, because the way the pitch is I didn't want him running about as a centre back for half the game and then forward for the next half so that was one of the reasons why I changed it.

?But no excuses - if you don't do the fundamentals properly, it doesn't what team it is or what players it is, if you don't do them properly you will always struggle. Ipswich did them well and we did them very poorly.?
