Good shout. He was pretty much faultless. Romero was brilliant first half too.
Not really, Skipp’s role in the 6 is to get the ball of the centre backs and get us going.
When we drew with them.. Everyone was so sorry that rice had to go off like it made a massive difference..
Sarr's role isn't to bring the ball out and keep it though. That's Skipp's, and he wasn't good enough at it.
Imagine them with Gabriel and Saliba out!
Wasn't directed at you particularly just saw a lot of anti-Skipp chat and he did do some progressive stuff.
Some better finishing / last pass and it's 3-0 and then 3-1 in both of those situations though. That's how we're setup to play. Not that I think we played well or deserved it, but I don't think there's anything "naive" about it.
Two mins to go, we are attacking and Royal and Porro are central on the edge of their box. That’s bonkers stuff. We lost it and got lucky Everton made nothing of it.
They had a 3 on 2 with a minute left. Hoj and Skipp out of the game running back in a panic.
It’s naive, with less than 5 minutes to go in a game where you’re lucky to be ahead, to have your full backs that advanced. It’s madness.
Why is it naive? Naive says there's a lack of judgement...a lack of decision making. There is absolutely decision making in those situations. It's go and get the 3rd goal and kill the game off, which we nearly did (Son fluffed his lines twice including the pass to Johnson that went out for a goal kick.)
I agree with your context but it wasn’t luck they didn’t score. It their lack of quality
It’s a complete lack of judgement which is naive. The job is to win the game. You don’t go pushing for a third in that situation with your full backs that advanced and leave the back door open where you can be outdone and outnumbered with a simple ball forward if you cough up possession.
