Risso Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 That free kick routine where it was passed sideways, before a long kick out to the edge of the area and a header back in, bloody lovely that was. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWARLEY2 Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 I now understand. There was money for a tier 1 defensive midfielder or a set piece coach ....we picked the better option. Really really creative and clever . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinda makes me wonder why we haven't had a set piece coach in the past. Do other teams have them? Its a genuine question, but if we went ahead of the curve then its genius from somebody Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best signing we've made since Fernando Nelson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyblade Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 I haven't seen us this threatening from set pieces since the Laursen/Young days. Every corner looks dangerous now. It's only a matter of time until we start scoring from them regularly. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jono62 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Don't know if the players are afraid of him, but Cash messed up a throw in and he looked in his direction and seemed to apologise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love it. I like how its on their mind to execute every set piece correctly. They are such mindless exercises for players a lot of the time. By their very nature they encourage you to switch off as you are getting a rest from the flow of the game and can then end up going through the motions. The one I heard from McPhee last night was when defending a freekick "Jaden, Jaden, Jaden, Jaaaaaden...get to the f**king ball" Its such a massive edge in its own right but the benefit spills over to open play. You're not playing well or with much confidence in a game and the opposition has taken control of it... you win an innocuous freekick create a dangerous chance from a set piece routine and it can lift the team, the fans and puts some uncertainty in opposition and throw them on the backfoot. That momentum can shift to open play and i think that's what's been happening in a few of our games this season.

Seems like a guy that demands focus and execution which will keep our players sharp in these situations. can dig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sulberto21 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 The one when Buendia actually played a dangerous ball but No1 moved towards it - the way he turned to the bench and you can clearly see him thinking 'these bastools have sold me up shit creek there'. It was almost as though Austin was plotting something against the ones that didn't move lol. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone has to get in their ribs and another one to put their arm around them....its works. They say Shankly was more like Dean with the players,Shanks was just sharp witted.....and Paisley ( when he was No 2 to him) was the one they feared. It does seem to me though the coaching does seem better in general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
