There's no chance in hell he can do anything about it unless he's Usain Bolt if you actually mean that second timeThe second time they hit the post was cos both him and Maguire did their usual stare at the bloke shooting shtick and not bother to close down.
Yep. And the best part; people who are happy with AWB hated Valencia for his attacking play.Valencia was really good. Underrated player.
The issue is that when we do finally get the ball out of defense (this is very difficult) we push it too Pogba and Bruno and they have 4-6 Brighton players surrounding them. They can't pass it to anyone as they're surrounded so they're forced to take players on. Their forward line and midfield are playing very narrow and swamping Pogba/Bruno. It's clever tactics as it's suffocated us.
Change of formation required or we continue playing into Brightons hands and hope they get tired.
We also have 2 coaches in KM and MC who are supposed to be clever tacticalIt means Ole doesn't invest his time into patterns of play and implementing a system that we can identify with and transition our attacks from. He has said himself his style is more motivation than tactical.
The problem is, cracks show when our defenders and deeper midfielders aren't familiar with how to play the ball out and feed the attack. They aren't pressing as a team and they get hustled off too easily as a result. It's happening in a flurry of games before hitting form, and then happening in a flurry again.
By way of progression, it's a huge concern at this stage.
Regression from last seasons ridiculous runWhat the feck is up with these pens
If you have better individual players than most, why not? Watching the league, it can't really be too debatable that we're poorly coached, without prejudice to other aspects of the game. We routinely play teams with worse players man for man yet they play more cohesively.
