That's why Allsop is so important. He stays reasonably unflappable in the tip-tap drawing them in, though occasionally it goes wrong, but his long balls are so vital to us opening up the opposition.
True. But as well as the high press, opposition teams also play a high defensive line which means Allsop's long balls often go beyond the forwards and end up with oppo's keeper. When it works, as against Southampton, it's beautifully simple but too often they're overhit and momentum's lost.
Considering we are the lowest goal scorers and worst goal difference in the top 8 Im not sure zidane in goal is making too much of a difference
Shouldn’t that be no WE won’t ! Only joking we might need you over the next few weeks - getting bored already .
