He dragged the game to a place we were not good at and then beat us at it.
There are many ways to skin a cat and he chose his way to win
Mus**** could have set Victree up to go toe to toe with us throwing the big ones
In Berisha Barbarousis Plagues mate and Troisi he had the artillery to do so
But he chose to not go there.
He chose to turn it into a grind and backed his side to be better at it than us.
They were.
If things had of turned to shit he could easily have chosen to take the brakes off and unleashed the big names asnd stretched the game and gambled to get back in it that way
Everyone keeps hammering on about there goal keeper. Sure he made a couple of great saves and was a deserving MoM for coming up with the big plays but reality was we never threatened him anywhere near as much as we could have.
I can recall 3-4 shots of note. All the great stuff the Jets done was outside the box in the build up play. That shit dont win games. It what you do in the bix that matters and Mus**** set his side up to limit our opportunities in the box.
Credit where it is due. We were outwitted by Mus**** tactically
GFs are about results not free flowing football.
He chose a method to achieve the result and his logic actually is sound as to why to play that way against us
