00:00Talos Korbran talked about this front-footed mentality and then you couple that with what
00:05he's kind of said in his comments after the game, about before the game, saying they have
00:14this belief. It seems to me that I think all the way through Korbran's reign we've kind
00:21of seen changes. Early doors, we saw him sort of cast their mind back right to that first
00:27game against Sheffield United when they were popped off the park. He sort of switched formations,
00:33you know, solidified with a back three for the rest of that season. Then they went to
00:37a four at the start of last season. You know, when that was a bit leaky, he moved back to
00:41a three. It's almost like he's tried to plug gaps and find things to sort of...
00:47Solutions on the go, isn't it?
00:50Yeah, solutions on the go. Whereas now he's, this summer, has been probably the blankest
00:54canvas he's had in terms of players. Don't get me wrong, he's still had an awful lot
00:58of players that weren't his and weren't his signings. But this is the... I know he had
01:03last summer, but he's had a real chance to mould how he wants Albion to do. He's had
01:08two years, nearly, or 18 months, you'd say, of the job, nearly two years. And it seems
01:15that all the work of Korbran and all the different facets of his reign so far are just moulding
01:22together now and coming together really nicely. I think there is that, you know, you talked
01:27about it after the Stoke game, don't get too far ahead of ourselves because it's still
01:31early doors. But what we're seeing at the moment is something that we haven't maybe
01:34seen from a Korbran team so far. One, yes, one that can still keep the back door closed,
01:39but one that can also play very, very expansive, fast-flowing attacking football.
