Tactics Thread

A wiiiiiide open midfield against Liverpool. One pass put their right back through our midfield space, running at our defence, one pass goal. Embarassing. No defensive midfielder.

Did he learn?

A wiiiiiide open midfield against Villa. One pass put their man straight through our midfield space, running at our defence, one pass goal. Embarassing. No defensive midfielder.

Highlighted it in the match thread but there was a point in the first half when their CB in possession of the ball made an uncontested pass, on the edge of his own box, in a straight line to an unmarked CM (?) at the edge of the center circle (in their own half) which took out 6 (six) of our players

I think that data may be skewed by the first half of the season
We have barely mustered a sprint in ages
I’d love to know when it’s a sprint rather then a normal run…

I’d disagree. Gray, for one, seemed to spend half the game sprinting back towards his own goal yesterday. He was at it from the first minute when we conceded the opening goal. It carried on through the game.

That would only show on one metric
The guy making up the data should show a before and after and on the thread someone asks him but his answer is vague

I’d guess he may think he is covering for Porro
But with the other 2 Cms in no man’s land it gave a gaping hole

Exactly that. 8 or 9 players caught on the right side of the pitch. Opposition make the switch and normally Sonny hasn't switched on. Then the overload and an opposition chance created. 5 mins later we will have 8 or 9 players on the left side of the pitch and then they're down Porro's side.

Schoolboy football.

I think sonny is toxic for us as we try to oaky brave football but in then example having watched it back he did the right thing
The issue was that the second “presser” was porro who murdered it and left his who area vacated
Ans then for once you had the midfield close but in the wrong area
 
every goal we concede is so similar, it's a structural problem. how often do we miss the tackle in the midfield, allowing them to play it forward to where our full back is out of position.

every time man. look at the goal away to Saudi Sportswashing Machine (Isak?). The goal away to Forest (Elanga). The goal in the first minute yesterday same thing.

It's an Ange tactic issue.
 
We are easy to set up against, beat the poor press, skip past the lame tackle in midfield and we have an overload on the right hand side, failing that we have an overload on the left. Its so easy i could set up a team to beat us.

This isn't to do with fitness, missing a number of players.

This is the set up leaving us horribly exposed

And we have been all season. Just that we had players bailing us out

Was way less of a problem early on in the season than it was against Villa and in some other recent games.

Our pressing structure has been way off. Almost like we're a mismatch of teenagers, new signings, players that don't fully fit their role and exhausted players.
