- Eckert explained that Southampton had intended to use an extra midfielder to control Coventry’s central rhythm.
- Eckert said Southampton had a plan for the first 60 minutes and then intended to open up the game with impact players.
- Eckert said play-off rival Wrexham’s win over Swansea the previous day made it clear Southampton needed to be strong.
“It’s quite clear Coventry have a heartbeat in their team that you need to control and the idea was to play with one more midfielder today.”— Tonda Eckert explained the tactical thinking behind his approach after Southampton’s 2-1 win at Coventry City.
