Firstly, LB don't win big. They have scraped a few victories against sides that we beat comfortably, consequently they have the worst goal difference in the top three and have scored over 20 goals less than we have. This means they are vulnerable but used to competing in close games, so the concepts we went through last week apply again but we need to put them into action on the pitch from minute 1, and sometime in the 2nd half.
Play the patterns and get the ball high and wide, defend as a unit. Above all, we must take our chances.
Lastly, I'll make my apologies now. We need to win this game, otherwise we're left hoping LB slip up against someone else, so therefore pitch time maybe limited for some depending on how the game is going. However, we also don't need heroes - it is up to you to put everything in when you're on and recognise when you need to come off.
