oddly some managers practice the concede less than we score approach. Such notables as conte, mourinho and tuchel defend first and foremost.
It's a boring model, but it can work. If you don't concede and the other team is getting frustrated they can eventually make a mistake and allow you to score.
There is something very satisfying when you see a league table and have a ridiculously good defensive record though. Maybe that’s from growing up and playing defence in my youth What was the old saying? a good attack will win you guys but a good defence will win you the title?
what did for me was cheslea destroying us and going 1-0 up and tuchel jumping up and telling his side to stop attacking. that year was vvd? we were there to be absolutely hammered and the game ended 1-0. it.might work a bit but over the long run you won't succeed imo. you have to have balance.
Freudian slip? I presume you mean games, but it makes no sense. Win enough games and you win titles. 1-0 or 4-3, still 3 points.
Mo is an all time great. Goals, assists and puts a shift in. Model professional. Takes responsibility. Works hard on and off the pitch. What more can you want from him?
Absolutely. But if he can continue from Sunday and sustain a decent level of form for at least the remainder of the season then he may change my mind. One quality performance since January 2022 isn't enough
Yes. One year salary alone could pay the transfer fee for a decent midfielder... And one swallow alone doesn't make a wife.
For me, it wasn't about whether or not he was worth it, it was the risk inherent in chucking our wage structure out of the window. Only time will tell if it has a detrimental effect or not.
I only commented because there was a comment after ONE good performance. Mo was our worst player today imo
