If you watch Bielsaball it was usually one touch football - are our players overthinking now? Dwelling on the ball and getting caught and / or panicking.
I think there’s a lot to that mate and although we are now accused of not being a speedy team Inghink under Bielsa we were the fastest team in the league at getting from back to front and we scored some great breakaway goals. Thinking about Meslier to Ayling beats one man puts Raphinha in from inside his own half to blast down the flank, goal winning half a minute. So I don’t accept we are slower we are just not doing the same things, but still conceding a lot of goals. We were quick, slick and accurate but for some reason now we hesitate and then get caught. Even Aaronson, Kristensen are now failing and that can only mean they are being asked to do things Marsch never asked before
Mes to Ayling is fine, but not when 5 opposition players are stood around him predicting the same thing over and over again.
That’s because we’re so narrow, players are on top of each other so having to hold onto the ball until space opens up, by which time the man playing the ball is closed down and probably makes a pass he didn’t initially want to make.
Think we could sign a top left back for nothing if we get hold of Benjamin Mendy, not guilty ffs probably because the gold digging sluts who the jury could see through. Not guilty on half a dozen rapes but no verdict on 1 rape.
Trossard forcing his way out of Brighton by walking out of training and not turning up for the next session. He thinks Potter wants him and Conte at spuds. Wish Bamford and Firpo would do something like that have we signed Mendy yet
I've found it easy so far today as I have been as busy as hell and no time to check in again until now. My resolve might be tested once the fulltime whistle blows tonight
