This is all to do with the pressing. Yesterday first half we didn’t press as a unit which meant Spurs players had loads of time to bring the ball down and pick a pass through or over the high line . Second half the intensity increased and it meant they didn’t have the time to break the high...
I was sat at home. I really hope the manager was not reading NSC at half time! Also for balance I regularly start the positives from today threads when we don’t win! I hope he does read them!
That’s what NSC is for, expressing opinions. Between the Chelsea game and the first half of the Spurs game that is the most lost I have seen us look defensively in years and I am including the way we press in that.
We also showed tactical and defensive frailties v Forest and Wolves.
I think...
He will be fine, yesterday was clearly a mixture of nerves and adrenaline. Hopefully we can give him 30 minutes in next home game and let him settle in.
Genuine question, is there a reason he dislikes us so much? I’m remember under Potter he used to slaughter us routinely even when flying relatively high. Maybe we rejected him at some point but I’m not aware of we did.
I guess you won’t read this as I will be on ignore but I am going to respond anyway. Your post is everything wrong with NSC, I couldn’t be at the game as I live too far away, I was watching alone and my comments on how we were set up and playing are what I would have said to the person sitting...
Thread has absolutely nothing to do with belief in the players or the club. It a about coaching and despite todays win (absolutely delighted to be proved wrong today)
I think the thing that most alarmed me, other than the hangover, was how many times they seemed to get in behind. Coming...
I accept I went early today and got proved wrong. But we have conceded 10 goals in four games and if we are being honest it could have been a lot more than that. I’m still not convinced by the defensive set up but hey you do you.
One of the huge positives from today was it emphasised how many more scoring options we have, more than anytime in our PL journey.
Three different scorers without Mitoma getting one and Ferguson, Adingra and Pedro not playing a minute between them. Throw in the threat of Enciso, March when...
I saw a lot of Sima last season and I’m still not convinced he’s better that either Welbeck, Ferguson or Pedro. Wouldn’t be adverse to making a good profit if we could .
