Three wins in the last five matches indicate a tactical shift at Arbroath. Manager Dick Campbell has opted for a more aggressive style, encouraging players to take risks. "We have the players to score goals; we need to use them," he stated clearly after a recent 2-1 victory over Montrose.

The team adopts a flexible 4-3-3 formation, emphasizing width and pace on the flanks. With R. Dow and D. Mebude frequently stretching defenses, Arbroath creates constant pressure on opponents. At home, the Gayfield pitch seems suited for this offensive strategy, allowing quick transitions and flowing attacks.

In midfield, R. Callachan is instrumental, linking play between defense and attack. His tireless running allows the front three to exploit spaces. The addition of T. Beadling has brought an extra dimension, as he can make late runs into the box, becoming a threat from deep.

With this new approach, Arbroath has also focused on set-pieces. They have scored several goals after corner kicks this season. As the season progresses, it's clear that if they can refine this aggressive tactic, they will be serious contenders for promotion.
