This too is true.
St Mirren, ICT etc will sit in and hit on the break, though I gather there was precious little of this until we scored on Tuesday.
I suspect we still aren't good enough to be the dominant crusher of teams, that to a large extent are very used to playing very deep in the SPL.
That said, with Smith and Aluko both playing with Miller we SHOULD have the necessary skill to do teams that try that tactic at Pittodrie. The trouble is, when arguably our best midfielder is played as some sort of CH we lose a great deal of presence in the middle.
I have no problem with Seve playing as an auxiliary CH against the Infirm, even at home, but against EVERyONE else we should try to be on the front foot.
