bunglebonceKey features: double pivot to spread the ball high, wide and early; get the wingers 1v1 against the full-backs; Vigurs works laterally to double up, letting him take the ball infield to shoot and/or combine with Wohlfarth; back four don't need to commit themselves with protection from double pivot.
There is a strong case for Kettlewell's pressing instead of Fotheringham's ball-playing ability, but with only Tudor Jones likely to start among the recognised central midfielders, and with the midfield triangle, County can afford to double up on passers to make the most of spreading the ball early with 30-40 yard diagonals.
