Match Day Thread Hull City v Stoke

I actually agree with having a throw in coach
It sounds simple
But throws can have a
lot of rapid change of transitions with players
Creating openings, when a player makes a run it can drag defenders out
Its essentially a dead ball
And theres no offsides
Etc

But theres one thing having a a plan and idea and one thing conveying it well
And the latter is very hard to do

 

'Stand for throw ins', next season's lesson will be dare to move around at throw ins.


The views expressed in my posts are not necessarily mine.

 

Absolutely nothing wrong with set piece coach / throw in coach. But telling them where to stand for a throw in....come on. It's micro / over coaching. Coach them to react to what's happening on the pitch in given moments. Give them the confidence to play what they see, not what they've been told

 

Mad we are playing Philogene out of position to accommodate Zaroury btw.

 

We had better balance with Lokilo in the side.

He didn’t do anything special but he followed instructions

 

TBF lokilo was #1 for standing were he was told to at throw ins

 

was chatting to my housemate about this comment made earlier, which thread was this in I’d like to read through it because it sounds exactly what I’d expect.

 

The Jan transfer thread I think I was

 

Just think of what Best, Pele, Cruyff and others could have done if they had only had a throw in coach.

 

I hope Rosey is watching Man City v Arsenal. There’s a lot to be learned from this IMO.

 

Philogene himself has said he likes playing on the right.

 

Only 1 attempt on target each so far. I think he’s already getting the message over!

 

No politics ta

 

Throw ins - watched Citeh , they have a plan to keep possession thrower and two involved one to receive and one inside or back down the line to keep - They rarely have a thrower looking for someone to move , some players hide Tufan is genius at receiving the ball and cushioning it back - train them all Liam.
As for Zaroury I think he’s being limited by slow ball , Burnley were mobile and countered - like Jaden he always has to beat one or two men by the time he gets it .

 

Definitely don’t want any left wingers in the team.

 

Are you assuming he means when it’s our throw? I took it to mean when it’s the opposition’s and we haven’t got the ball, and to be fair LR was just picking out one example of many situations he needs to learn while being interviewed live. Not sure he should be taken literally. Yes he does get carried away with his tongue, but Its more insightful than say Big Nigel.

 

Whether it's ours or theirs, react to what's happening In real time, fair enough if it's your job to mark player xyz, but to be told where to stand.... It's ether poor choice of words ( I hope ) or he actually means he's telling people where to stand and if that's the case then it explains some of the noises coming out the squad about over coaching etc.

 

We’ve been crap for 10 or 15 years at marking at throw ins , Brown nor Bruce sorted it .

 

I would fully expect any well drilled and disciplined team to have very clear instructions about where to stand when they haven’t got the ball.
A few managers earlier in the season remarked how well drilled we were. I guess the only difference between well drilled and over coached is the result.

 

Agree and agree it’s largely Bruce’s fault.
