The worrying thing is we seem to have lost the cutting edge to our attack since about 10 games before the end of the season. I'm not remotely trying to say we need to stop it. But sometimes it is OK to put your foot through it and I think we need to recognise that more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, read that as replicate, meaning ”being as good”. I wasn’t talking about individual transfers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the best openings tend to come from the situations when you really tempt the midfielders and forwards in to a chance of getting the ball that they just miss. It's a really fine balancing act and that time you hoof it long could have been the time you tempted their midfield that little bit too far forward and created a space that you then totally bypass.

(You’d know I’m a teacher, wouldn’t you?) On this game, a bit of a schooling today will make us more careful next week. Torres won’t lose the ball so easily. Youri won’t make a challenge like that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrBlack Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 These pre-season results have looked a lot worse thanks to no VAR. The performances are still a bit of a concern Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
