We need a more ruthless streak to beat the ‘hit and run’ tactics

GARY LINEKER was ‘havin’ a larf’ describing our encounter as “end to end stuff” on Match of the Day. End to halfway-line, more like.

I’m pretty sure Lehmann only touched the ball twice in the second-half and they were back passes.

In fact I’m looking forward to our trip to Old Trafford next week, as win, lose or draw, at least it will be a proper contest, as opposed to the sort of ‘hit and run’ tactics we’ve fallen victim to in our first three outings.
