Interview on MotD he said that they are scoring because he told the strikers that their job is not to defend, save their energy and use it to hurt the opposition by scoring. Seems to have worked. Should we be saving our forwards from defensive duties?

I know you will all say they couldn't score whatever we do, but that isn't the case, they scored before they came here (at least more often than they are doing now).

Yes.
Scoring is also a matter of confidence. Lets face it every Brighton striker in the last 10 years - with the exception of Ulloa - has been given shedloads of abuse. Craig Davies, Glenn Murray, Ashley Barnes and every one on loan.

He said Villa would definitely stay up, just confident or cocky

I can't stand Tim Sherwood, I don't know what it is, he just seems to emit an air of real smugness. Poyet mkII, thinks he's better than he actually is.

They were talking about Sherwood and under performing strikers on 5-live, at lunchtime.

The talking heads had boiled Bentek & Adabyor (excuse the lack of effort with the spelling) scoring under Sherwood, as being down to Sherwood's approach to the first 20 minutes of each game.

Basically setting the team up to get the strikers 'into the game' as quickly as possible.
Give them a couple of chances, get them interested, make them feel they'll get further chances.

From then play as normal, but knowing the striker is pepped up and raring to go.

Makes perfect logical sense to me
