It WAS the diamond. Of that I have absolutely no doubt.
absolute bollocks
well as i clearly stated i'm not disagreeing that he's always been here jst that in the past he wasn't creative thus could not be described as a creative midfielder that we've always had as he was a midfielder who lacked creativity before his role last night and potentially a couple of anomalous performances in the past
Nothing like a traditional diamond formation, no yawning gap in the middle which a diamond creates, no boring short passes leading nowhere, no wing backs pushing forward with no cover behind. What we did have was four midfield players coming forward when able and all defending for there lives. when the full backs pushed on one of the midfielders filled in, when we went forward we had runs from all angles rather than the normal rigid formation, we played the ball into space not to feet, we played the ball into corners dragging the Brum defence all over the shop. Curtis Davies had an absolute mare, run ragged by Elliot and Mcdonald.
The formation gave all the protection needed for the defence to be comfortable, Edge had the Women Beater in his pocket, Brown was excellent as well.
As for Baker one of the best performances by a Coventry player since our glory days. Passion, vision and skill.
Diamond formation in your dreams (or nightmares).
All we played today was long hoof ball!
No we didn't..... In the second half we did play more long balls but it was just 'hoof ball' as you put it. He was poor but no worse then any other on the pitch, hes an idiot though, threw away the ball and picked up a needless booking when we're chasing the game. he never learns......
