Quarter back, dlp football never been a fan of. We drop the dlp build and we'll be fine. Xhaka or dlp won't be of value until late in the game and when the pressing stops.
Its pretty much kick and rush football from city and pool. The Invincibles would walk this league in their sleep on pure athletism alone. Their skills is just overkill then. Withe the defence 4/5 nills every game . Most of the goals city and pool score all speed release.
Senile wenger mashing up 2,3 styles and its a mess. Don't build from Xhaka and we win. f***ing sucks we ain't Got big g for plan b. Think he would of got a header of these mugs.
I really hope other fans don’t read these pages, because as a fan base we embarrass ourselves. City? Kick and rush? They are playing football off this planet. Yes. With pace ‘rush’ and goals ‘kick’. Liverpool too play incisive, rapid, one touch football.
Liverpool press to the channels and then overload with their cm and full back joining Firmino and the wide player. This leaves the full back trying to come back inside and being outnumbered or going long and it’s a 50:50 to retain possession. If you can keep the ball, they are in trouble because tactically their game is all about over committing in confined spaces, but not many teams can. Tactically, our best bet was Giroud and by-passing their press all-together.
I see this game as a straight shoot out between our forwards and theirs. An area of the field we are evenly matched. Heart says we can get something, head has been too involved in looking at their away record to have much confidence.
