I noticed on Saturday that when we went long from DB everybody from both teams drifted way over to the right but Ngakia was quite slow to move and as a result was wide open on the left with the freedom of VR in front of him. DB eventually picked up on this and bowled it out to him setting off a promising move.
Nope. When he came on there was more success getting the ball won up top. Once he wins it he should step aside and let the others play, but before he was there we had nobody winning headers or even challenging.
Troy Deeney talked about this on TalkSport when discussing Forest. They have two old school centre backs who don't really want the ball at their feet so Forest don't play that way. They sit deep and look to use the the counter attack because the players they have up front allow that. It's not rocket science. If Bachmann is not that comfortable with the ball at his feet, stop giving it to him when he will get closed down. As soon as we stopped either passing it back to Bachmann or giving it to Sieralta, who is equally dreadful on the ball, we looked a lot better
They also have someone to hold the ball up front and midfielders that don’t go missing and their most creative player has an end product .
The point is they play to their strengths and not sure we do, if anything we play to our weaknesses sometimes
Definitely. Nuno sets his teams up well as we saw with Wolves . Spurs obviously a disaster but then it’s Spurs .
