Especially after the Ajax game, Frank, it was a completely different proposition today.
And I thought you handled it well.
I had a couple of opportunities for Burnley early in the game, but I thought the way you moved the ball and obviously making a change today with Christian really gave you a bit of life as well.
Yeah, I mean, I think it's hard to stop Burnley doing what they do well.
It's hard to stop balls coming in your box and then they get set pieces.
They play for it.
They play for set pieces in your half.
and they stick it in and they're bigger than us and I was quite pleased with how we tried to deal with that but yeah I just felt with Christian coming in he was so bright and we played Mason higher up behind in the sort of number 10 behind their midfield because I felt those were areas that we could get the ball in and get them turned and when we get out one of those two or William turned and running at people then we can cause problems.
Yeah, it's really interesting that, you know, obviously last two games, two clean sheets on the spin.
And before then, there was a little bit of focus about conceding from set pieces.
The goals end up being in play.
But you changed the way you set the team up.
So it was sort of like half and half with the zone and the marking as well.
So what was the thinking behind that?
Yeah, we changed a couple of weeks ago.
I basically got fed up conceding.
We thought we've got to change something here.
So we went and changed, I think, pre-Southampton and I just felt to give some players responsibilities.
It's hard.
There's so many arguments for both sides of this one.
