They’re just fucking dull to watch. Same pattern of play on repeat.

Although funny they keep conceding the same types of goals

They appear to have moved in to the United Zone, whereby loads of decent individuals wander aimlessly round the pitch with zero leadership...

Bringing on Doku has killed the game off, he's utterly last

Can't believe he edged grealish out

Whenever I've seen him he just looks like a sprinter in a footy kit.

How can you tell if someone is a Kopite? If the hat, scarf, T shirt or tattoo isn't enough of a clue, they will have told you within two sentences. Basically, it's a cult.

I always find it amusing that these managers study endless statistics to gain a tiny % of advantage.
Then they totally ignore the massive discrepancy in the amount of goals conceded by playing it out from the back, compared to inviting the other team on then playing through them.
It's pure madness. Burnley went down because of goals they conceded in this way.

Formerly this is Bracewell

I’m not a fan of these short goal kicks, but surely with a defender either side of the keeper, the keeper should be playing it wide to a defender not a defender taking it to the keeper right in front of goal.

This! It’s down to the coaching, all academy ‘keepers are told to ‘trust’ then when it inevitably fails they get fucking hammered for it, the minute they take things in their own hands and just ping it up the pitch the coach is on them for not following the ‘process’ & they’re dropped, can’t win.

There’s a time and a place deffo, but in short, modern football at the top level is trapped in a philosophical death spiral, it’s dull as fook and hardly ever works, apart from about 3 teams.

I think it’s funny that football has evolved to the point that the accepted way of playing means the worst players on the pitch constantly have the ball in the riskiest area

why are you so argumentative? this is obvious stuff

It’s madness. I absolutely hate it.

I really hate when someone tries to explain why they do it.

It’s to invite the other team on and play through them.

Yes I know it’s still fucking stupid.
