Skinner: Jess & Tooney bring each other to life
“I felt we were excellent with that today,” the boss said. “I felt that we twisted, we turned, we took on one-v-one. If you do that, you’re unpredictable, and then that really breaks [opposition] structures.
“You can break a press with a pass, but then you’re still [facing] player for player [defence]. If you break it with a dribble, then you have an overload, and I’ve asked more of that from us.
“We have the players now, Jess is a great example of that. And it just promotes people to do the same, and I think that’s a real key difference of us today, is that when people lock us, we can turn you, and then once we break you, you’ve got to panic, because we’re aggressive and we go quick.”
