That wasn’t the system though was it?

I actually have no idea what the new system is. TAA for England played a similar role where he moved into midfield while England were attacking, maybe that's what Hinshelwood is supposed to do?

Isn't that easy to defend though, if all our attacks are down the left? It also makes Minteh less effective as we saw yesterday.

I think the phrase a lot of football analysts have used to describe the role is ‘inverted fullback’.

I love Adingra's style of play - he's got a touch of the Knockaerts about him, very unpredictable and produces something out of nothing. My only criticism of him is that sometimes he tries to go for flair over practicality, but he's young and he'll learn in time.

Yes, I think a lot of our forwards are out there looking to impress, rather than lay the ball off for a better opportunity. We have a lot of quality players competing for similar positions and they are all trying too hard at times.
