Using this bollox about leeked teamsheets is utter shite as a very weak excuse, pathetic in fact. Many sports actually name there teams days before a match.
This is not the first time this season lenny has made an issue out of this, the reason why is a worry for me.
If you have enough belief in your players but more so yourself you wouldn't have such an issue over it, or is he trying to be the master of surprise.
The only surprise to us know is that he still has no idea on what his best starting 11 are and no idea on how to make the subs in order to change things around
I just watched his after match chat
I really think he was happy with that turgid shit.
To suggest we missed the elyounousi chance which was worse than Morelos finishing btw, and that would have created different dynamic.
Well 1 chance Neil that was a long ball punt that probably should have been buried. But other than that where were these other quality chances you dreamt.
Now assuming you aren't ever gonna try those tactics ever again.
Would it be possible to talk us through the tactics you employed and what was suppose to happen.
Are the players told to be 30+ yards from ball when we have it.
is the defence to be the midfield and play with lots of players so far from ball that its hard to even see any viable pass watching on tv?
What position was elyounousi playing? is this the kind of performance you expected from that position?
What are your instructions for cal Mac and ntcham when they (I assume) are meant to be our centre midfielders?
Does frimpong pass ball well in training?
How many shots have our strikers been able to fire from inside box?
Why is the number so low?
most important question why are all our strikers not fit to finish a game?
How is that possible?
if today had been a blip then I wouldn't be asking but its every game. we have players too far from each other playing weird positions and not really doing it very well imo
What exactly is fantastic other than scraping victories from jaws of low scoring draws
every single time you have came up against a 451 (variations of) counter with well drilled players of average standard you crumble and create very little.
might get odd solo run here and there or half chance but there appears to be no tactics
So gonna explain the old tactics out loud to see if the players are to blame or you?
cause I think its you if im honest
Burns never won much but even when we lost it was entertaining and coherent and something to talk about. but when we won it was dynamite.
You keep claiming what your offering is dynamite
but its just gash mate
even when I watch Real Madrid past present or the best football teams in world, none of them play with 30 yard gaps between midfielders entire game.
some teams had players with 40 yard clinical passers throughout team but that was an option in reality they had 3 4 sometimes 5 players within 20 yards of ball
watch any champions league team
and none play with extra large gap between players
we dont even have many long range quality players who can pass 30 yards accurate regularly but constantly our midfield apart from brown is perpetually 30 yards from the defenders
they have no option but to pass to defender or hoof it
So is that your tactics
get infant of ball and hope the shite passers can make a 30 yard pass that can be controlled only to find he now has a 30 yard pass option or hoof?
