Credit to Warnock but I also think that his backroom team have positive input here, especially Blackwell who Warnock talks to a lot during games.
Also, from yesterday, it was clear to me that we have been doing a lot of work on the training ground to close games down when we have something to defend. I think I am right in saying that for the majority of the added 5 minutes we kept the ball in their half with only one meaningful attack of note that to defend.
