What I took from the game was that we were able to defend as a unit and the best we could hope for was a smash and grab win.
People on here saying we were never likely to score, that is true but Peterborough are a very good side.
If Manning continues to set up like this we will attack more against PV , Bolton,Pompey, FGR, Cheltenham and Accrington.
SW and Barnsley I expect to see more of what we saw yesterday
For many of us, the idea that we might set up differently for different games will take some getting used to.
Hugely exciting stuff.
Manning has been pragmatic.
First tighten up the defence. On that it is a teriffic start. Only 4 teams in L1 have scored more than Peterborough's 65 goals this season. So with our form, keeping a clean sheet is a real positive.
I suspect that he will try and do the same this season.
That means we hopefully will only need a goal ot 2 a game to get the odd win ( all that we need)
Agreed.
A mean defence is also a terrific platform for a side at the right end of the table.
