Boro say this is how Neil Warnock plays his sides



Warnock sides play to a pattern: concede possession, defend deep and scrap for every loose ball, close down but not press out and look to counter quickly, getting the ball wide and hitting the targetman early or making set-plays count. It is predictable but potentially problematic.

Monk sides play to a pattern: keep possession, pass sideways, backwards, sideways to the goalkeeper, hit it sideways to the fullback, the fullback runs forward had nothing on, so passes it sideways and so on and so forth.

that is indeed how we play, but its clearly meant to denigrate CCFC. however, despite other teams knowing how we will play, teams still cannot cope with it.

its not our fault teams cannot defend properly - this league is ultimately about getting promoted. unfortunately for monk and others, there are no prizes for keeping possession.
