Its the fact that theres zero movement. The players are so static, the only movement you see is occasionally Doucoure will do a little run forward expecting it over the top, and then arc back to be onside
When Villa where playing along the back line, Rogers was stood right next to Watkins, with their full backs pushed high up. Our lack of movement/pushing up the pitch from the back is awul at the minute and needs addressing Previous Message
I was saying to the fella who sits next to me that these lads apparently think they can play a more passing game, but they can’t seem to trap the ball or pass it 10 yards. Previous Message
We’re in for a rough ride here.
Watching that last night there’s more players I’d get rid of than I’d want to keep - the only thing that might give me some hope is if we go to a back 3. That’ll confuse ‘em.
I read elsewhere that one of our midfielders gave the ball away 13x & had a pass completion of 65%
That’s inexcusable (if correct)
They've done studies, you know. 60% of the time, it works every time.
