Whether selection was to incorporate Nketiah, Martinelli or Pepe as the tip of the spearhead, the ability to constantly run directly towards goal quickly and decisively is what was paramount in making this and the other adjustments to midfield and defence also worthwhile.
That the correct answer to the question being asked of us regards our standing in the league could've undoubtedly been answered positively at the first attempt and would obviously have been preferred, but in it taking us a couple more tries at solving the equation, it shouldn't see us being assessed and labelled as dunce, backward or incapable, when our condition shows greater evidence of actually being mildly autistic and bi-polar.
