Euro 24

[Arrested development]

The main issue has been the lack of a left hand side and it's still the main issue. It's been a bit better but it's still not quite right

If Evatt does that next season, I hope he's hounded out the next day

Free kick back to Pickford modern day football 

Corners used to be a real strength for us at the start of Southgate's management as well

Baffling

Can anyone make a convincing argument for this dull sideways passing style of football? 

Is it because Pep/City do it so effectively and so well?

Pep would probably make a better job of getting them to do it. Wouldn't be so negative for a start.

If only we had a striker that actually made runs 🥴

Possession stats shit hot though when we pass back from a corner.  Crossing it usually means loss of possession which seems to be the opposite of the plan.  Modern professional football eh.

Pep/City do it properly, with the emphasis on getting forward as quickly as possible

So many others play a pale imitation

It's not for nothing Pep hates the phrase tiki-taka

A lot of that was down to Slabhead being so dominant aerially

[captainmed]

Is this really so much better?

I know it’s a low bar but I’m not seeing it.
