Yes, clearly an element of that, however wasn't it Alan Knill who invented the overlapping CB strategy? Wilder trusted it and implemented it. But it wasn't his invention or his coaching necessarily that got it working.
Yes you're right, not just Wilder who can take the credit for it. It worked for quite a while, then second season in the PL teams had clearly sussed it. The cycle with us was maybe that on fast forward.
