00:00 in terms of rest defense, leads are quite good at this under Farker, because what you might have
00:05 noticed is that when Archie Gray starts and Luke Ehrling gets forward and essentially joins the
00:10 forward line, Archie drops into right back. So you've essentially at all times, you always have
00:16 a four man back line. It just means that the personnel is slightly different. Against Watford,
00:21 when Sam Byram got forward, which he did quite often, Glenn Kamara dropped into left back.
00:28 So again, you had four at the back, depending on which side you were attacking on.
00:32 Rossignol was basically saying what he didn't want to do was just throw the ball forward from
00:37 the first pass. He wanted Hull to build pressure because he felt that that was the safer way to
00:43 play against a team with what he called Premier League athletes in transition.
00:47 Well, Millwall played with wing backs, didn't they? They had a back three.
00:51 Where did those two Dan James chances come from? I mean, Rutez goal, that comes from Dan James
00:58 breaking down the right. And then the, was it Pirro when he scores? Who crosses for James and
01:05 then James scuffs his opportunity for the second goal at Millwall. Oh, that's a really good.
01:11 I can't remember who it is. It might be Ehrling. But for that one, again,
01:15 Leeds got down the sides. They identified that. Maybe they pushed the wing backs up,
01:20 tried to play the ball out to the wing backs. Maybe didn't win the first ball or won the first,
01:25 but not the second and then Leeds were away into the space.
