But Matt, you went for Harrison up front, Clucas or O'Shea and Raglan. How can you say that?
It turned out Harrison and Hump were wrong calls for this game, on this day. Mr Cook changed, got O'Shea on who has great ability but is quite in and out ....... and was rewarded.
Did he get his defence right? I dunno they let two in even when we were apparently dominating possession, but would Raglan in have improved things, or Jones, or Hump?
In the end the manager has to get it right in the 90+ minutes he's got ..... and the players have to make it work. And brilliantly they did. I'd definitely have lumped Gnanduillet on the second we went 2-0 down, but would Hird have then been in the same position to score that goal. Would O'Shea have added his brace? Gnanduillet might have got a hat-trick.
It's great that our manager is able to think on his feet and change a game a round, that he can say that idea's not working and come up with another one. Managers in industry and sport often stick with decisions simply because they are their decisions when they need the flexibility to change. He done great.
