Magnificent result. We were on the ropes for the first twenty-five minutes before finally matching our high tempo with controlled possession, and the goal really settled us down. Credit to Tim for setting us up in a 4-3-3 and having us compress the game into the middle third of the pitch in the first 60-odd minutes, which forced Swansea into a lot of unnecessary turnovers of possession which invited quick counters. Also, well done for recognizing the hole between midfield and defence, and fixing it by making Bentaleb drop deeper in the second half. But most importantly, well done for making us switch to a deep defensive line once we went two-nil up, which opened up lots of space for counter-attacks as a tiring Swansea had to contend with both a rampant Ade and Walker being pushed up in place of Lennon.
All in all, great tactical set-up, good performance, fine away win, and we keep marching onwards and upwards. Level with Liverpool: who would'a thunk it?
