Is this new guy bounce or is he just a very underrated coach who didn’t really have a voice under smith and Gerrard . His CV is actually quite impressive. Not new guy bounce.

Popular Post bobzy Posted October 23, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 23, 2022 Two things happening in a big way for us here: 1. The double pivot - both of them are holding but breaking upfield when the opportunity arises. It's providing a real link between defence/midfield and attack. 2. The pressing. It's everywhere, too! Massive difference. We're winning the ball back quickly and in good areas. It's not just the attackers - Luiz is getting right into his man when balls are played in Brentford's midfield. It does feel like the players may be relieved Gerrard has gone. There's a certain freedom about this half that we haven't seen before. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozvillafan Posted October 23, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted October 23, 2022 Loving Dendonker and Luiz in the double pivot. Each one dynamically breaks forward at different times knowing the other is covering behind. And who'd have thought playing a left-footed Bailey on the left would mean we get to the byline and turn the defense around. An assist within 10 minutes. Football really isn't that difficult.

Risky leaving him out there but I guess we're hoping half time will be enough of a rest to keep him going Plus you only get 3 opportunities to make subs plus half time. So keeping him out there until half let's us have more flexibility with 4 subs in the 2nd half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
It's Your Round Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 Some of the link up play in the final third has been sublime. It’s been a long time since we’ve see that kind of attacking flair, so good to see the players enjoying it out there. The whole team’s playing well especially Dendoncker and Ings, 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
