A couple of points, of course Gus is planning for the future it would be bad management if he wasn't and it's great that all sides within the club are playing the "Gus Way".
My only concern is that to play the "Gus Way" it is very restrictive on who he can bring in, only players with the ability to get the ball down and play, while we have these players they are not quite up to the pace required in the Champsionship and maybe still playing Division One pace when a higher tempo is required. Great to see the Developement Squad knocking the ball about but let's be honest with little penetration.
I still think that if Gus gets the right players in in the January window we can push on this season, the Bristol game was the start where we played with a greater tempo and tried to get the ball forward quicker and kept another clean sheet. Yes Gus has a long term plan but a couple of good signings NOW and we are not far from being a good side.
