I've noticed on the first two games that Leif seems to have developed Afterburners. He looks our fastest player (maybe after Jackson) this season.
I doubt of course he's particularly got faster bit I think this is something we'll see more now we are in the champ. Seems he can see more space in behind as teams don't sit back like in L1 against us.
What a player. |  | | |  |

Something very noticeable in the Stoke game that - the space in behind down the flanks.
I think that's why i'm grateful to be out of L1, every pass.. every goal.. every defensive block means something. A lot of L1 games resembled a training session like it was set up to see if you could break a low block down.
Even out of possession, we looked so dangerous on the break. | | | |

It wasn't just Leif though. Yes he was superb on Saturday and what an engine he has, but we just looked fitter and faster all over the pitch. The pre-season and motivation to improve in the squad has been really noticeable - the team we are now watching has moved it up a notch from what we saw last season. No mean feat. |  |

The new playing surface may also have an impact as well |  |

That’s an interesting point, from a commercial view the pitch becomes self funding if it helps our players become better and we raise higher transfer fees. | | | |

A word of caution:
We have played two of the better rated Championship teams. Whilst it is great that we have beaten them, when it comes to playing the teams who are struggling there will be plenty of low blocks to contend against. With bigger, stronger, and more disciplined players than in League One. | | | |
