First year, obviously, you try and survive.
We went back down, we came back up in my time here.
And then, yeah, you survive, you find that way and you build on it.
And I think we have done that this season.
We've slightly altered the formation.
play a little bit more football, have a bit more control on the game possession-wise.
Yes, we still mix it, as I say.
So we just try and find different ways to make it difficult for teams.
I think so.
It's been a while since I've been at the club.
