I agree but we’re playing a high risk game. You can see that this tactic was done on purpose, our back line is very high on the corner, no players on the post.
But it seems high risk to me. Are we relying on an opposition player being offside? Dunk, Duffy or Burn should be stopping the header, Ndidi should have been marked tighter. I hope we don’t use this tactic again because it clearly gave the opposition an advantage in getting to the ball first as our back line seemed more worried about positioning (and playing the opposition offside) than marking.
Yeah this.
Now that it's been highlighted on MOTD referees may think twice about overturning it too.
