Not saying you are wrong, but don't the rules state that if the defender is the last man and commits a foul it is a red card offence? If so, it has to be a red.
The lack of ruthlessness from anyone competing for 3rd/4th is a massive opportunity for us. If one team can get a grip and go on a run, they could be out of sight of 5th by January.
Look to almost any game under AVB or Poch and the system that they want to play just does not suit any of our current strikers. It's as simple as that.
Once the management accept that and buy players to suit the system rather than arse about face then perhaps we might frighten a few sides, but in all honesty i am surprised Levy hasn't tried to change our name to Tottenham Nil.
We have scored just a paltry ten PL goals and four of those in one game! Some on here want Ade dropped and some Soldado but in truth just who do they expect can come in and score a dozen goals this season with the current 4-2-3-1 system at a price that we could afford?
Southampton who are supposedly amazing didn't get it easy.Gary Neville said we are too easy to play against, he's right.
Gary Neville said we are too easy to play against, he's right.
Gary Neville said we are too easy to play against, he's right.
But when hasnt that been the case with us we are far too easy for teams especially the big Guns to steam roller us.
I think we need to adopt a more small team mentality against these sides until we have the right players/tactics to hurt them.
When we had King, Gallas, Parker and Rafa...when we had captain materials and fighters in our team which goes back to us needing players with a winners mentality, that's our problem.
Your not wrong there regarding mentality and fighters if Im not mistaken didnt all them take part when we beat the gooners at the emirates.
I do miss those days was a great time watching us play some good stuff especially being at the San Siro watching us beat Milan.
But its going to take a few transfer Windows and some dollar to identify and purchase the right kind of players to take us forward before we can really see pochs team in full flow.
When has a 4-5-1 ever worked for us ? The sooner we move away from this formation the better
