Zero7 Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 Loving the passion, how much ground we are covering, one touch and move passing, overlaps, Bailey playing, Ings movement, the list is endless. I think they engineered Gerrard out lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever SG was trying to do was too complicated and over thought backed up by total stubborness. I feel like complicated gives too much credit, chaotic maybe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MakemineVanilla Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 My diagnosis would be that the patient has experienced some serious catharsis, with the departure Gerrard, but the real measure of the recovery, will be how they deal with any subsequent trauma.

He had the best pressing stats in France as well. He's no John Mcginn defensively. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Wait til we get Kamara back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post penguin Posted October 23, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 23, 2022 A lot of people look to be putting this down to player effort but that’s well wide of the mark for me, seen these players bust a gut running around like a headless chicken for Gerrard countless times over recent games. Difference for me is a shape which doesn’t leave us constantly exposed due to our full-backs having to provide ALL the width so Mcginn and Ramsey, who aren’t great defensive players to begin with, getting pulled all over the place and gaping holes are left when they aren’t in a position to defend like in transition. Buendia as a 10 has been a master stroke and he’s been excellent, roaming all over the pitch constantly offering an option and allowing Luiz and Dendonker an option at all times allowing them to retain shape. He is also tenacious off the ball, certainly not the stereotypical “luxury player” a player of his skill in a 10 role may be associated with. We are attacking with tempo when we win the ball and not allowing the opponent to settle in shape which is allowing Watkins and Bailey to get in behind with pace, again reducing the burden on the full-backs to constantly overlap. Such simple tweaks really but it’s all the more infuriating Gerrard was persisting with what clearly wasn’t working. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F*** me, how bad must it have been under Gerrard. Much as I despise the thought of players downing tools can only imagine SG methods totally crushed their spirit and confidence. Just watching SG on the touchline the other day told me all I needed to know that the All In stuff was a lie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post TheAuthority Posted October 23, 2022 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted October 23, 2022 Am I being too much of a Villa fan by remembering when O'Neil left, Kevin McDonald stepping as caretaker and we beat West Ham 3-0. Then we lost the next league game 0-6 to Newcastle. Guess who we've got next in the league 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
