Look at the difference between their wingers and our wingers. Our wingers get stuck out wide and barely gets into dangerous areas. Arsenals wingers are more fluid and are allowed to move inside. They have made several good runs into Newcastles box.
Manchester United 2.81 expected goals, Luton 1.74. It doesn't look pretty when they play, but its not the same as being lucky. At least not all the time. We have been lucky aswell. We are 11 points ahead of our expected points.
The problem is the style of football. Ange want his wingers to hold max width, while our inverted wing backs push forward. So Son is basically a traffic cone on the left. He barely get into areas where he can shoot. And the few times he does get into those areas, its cluttered because our...
The thing is, I think Anges style of football is a part of the problem. He has no plan B, so he keep going with his inverted wingbacks no matter what. Sure, Porro and Udogie looks great, but in the end, is it really worth it? In Anges style of football, the wingers should hold max width. Is it...
You don't need an answer. Football is a squad game more than ever before and we have two players with a very different toolset. And that's not a bad thing.
He must score and assist more than he does. I'm a swede and I like Deki, but his output is not good enough. Yes, he does the things you mention, but we need more from him.
I'm happy to have both Deki and Johnson. Very different players, which is not a bad thing.
His output is not just almost as good. It is as good in 800 less minutes. I like Deki, but he must be more productive. Both players need to improve in different areas.
But I think some people make Johnson the scapegoat when other players plays as bad or even worse than him.
Maybe in the second half before he was subbed, but in the first half he was poor. He gave away the ball several times because he didn't protect it well enough when he was under pressure.
He is whether you like it or not. You probably just don't want him to be be. And now you have to make up excuses about what a progressive pass is. Just accept that your perception of something can be wrong.
As I said, PEH got other problems, but progressive passing is not one of them.
Kinda funny, if you look at the stats PEH has more progressive passes than Sarr, Bissouma and Bentancur /90 min. Out of our midfielders he has the highest progressive passing distance /90 min. He also has the highest amount of passes into the final third/90 min of all our current players (much...
My biggest problem is that some players get more criticism than others. For example, if Hojbjerg played like Bentancur did vs Brighton some of our fans would want him out of the club. The same goes for Johnson. Some people loves a scapegoat.
Johnson and Deki both have the same amount of points...
I think one of the problem is the system. In Anges system, the wingers must hold maximum width. I feel like players like Johnson and Werner would play better if they were allowed to cut in more often. I mean, what's the point with a right footed Werner holding max width on the left side? It...
Ye, move Werner to the right side and let him cross with his right foot. He's making good runs and can beat his guy. Apart from his chance, Deki is just slowing us down atm.
