It’s a relentless running approach so squad management will be vital especially for a team now about to embark on three away games in eight days.
It starts with a tough one at high-fliers Huddersfield Town on Tuesday night and I would make changes to the starting XI to freshen things up without abandoning the high-risk football which has accompanied the appointment of Savage as manager.
It’s a 4-2-3-1 formation...
9. MATT GARBETT
In my eyes the best midfielder in the squad. He's strong and skilful with an eye for goal so he has to start as the number 10 if he's fully fit. He will certainly be needed when Posh are trying to unlock low block defences, not that they will face one tomorrow. Photo: DAVID LOWNDES
10. OWURA EDWARDS
Two goals in two games for the speedy winger. He could revel in space that a big pitch will provide in Huddersfield. Photo: David Lowndes
11. HARRY LEONARD
The centre forward needs to sharpen up his finishing, but the rest of his game appears to be in good order. Photo: DAVID LOWNDES
