on yesterdays performance, our problem was that Untd sat back so deep, that we used our normal play to break them down. We should have been firing shots in time after time.
We had 81% of the ball in the 2nd half.with their Def & mid sitting on their area box.
anyway we are still in the hunt for the treble.

Cant wait for round 2 ( Ding ding)

HH, we have struggled all season against packed penalty boxes, and of course this is nothing new. Players who can break through these situations are normally very expensive. I agree that one tactic that can get results is to shoot, shoot, shoot and deflections may happen. Another is to employ a Jinky type of player to weave his way through, he may score, or get pulled down. Getting to the bye line and a cut-back can be deadly. Trying to pick little passes through a brick wall as we did most often leads to nothing - as it did once again for us.
