It all starts from our defensive intent for me. The intent and aggression in which we defended with yesterday was outstanding and we can then play off that. You look statistically and Byrne was no better than most games this season but clearly he was way way better. A prime example of stats not telling the full picture because there is no stat for the force you hit with, the way you lead the line speed or how hard you hit the ball up. He constantly challenged Catalans forwards on both sides of the ball. He summed up the difference to pretty much every game this past few months more than anyone.
