The result was generally excellent. Quality control or class first time cushioned passes.
The same lads stayed out there when the team came out and participated with them in some of the warm up bits. Good to see.
Here's a question:
That team last night played with five creative players, all piling forward whenever possible, pressing etc.
If Vieira had been in charge, would he also have played that way, or would he have put Marcus Wood alongside Bryan ?
