Talked to a basketball coach a few weeks ago for a good 20 minutes about corners in football and inbound pass routines in basketball. Stoke showed right there how to work space and set screens to free someone up for a shot, just as you would in basketball. Fantastic.

It was like chess man. Deserved a goal.

Did look very much like a set play in basketball. Worked brilliantly.

A bit sad we let Nolan leave. Many here should pat their back for all his negative antics. He could have done a job in the current toothless side.

 

It's not about being toothless, or lacking desire, or lacking leadership etc etc etc. Don't like these cliches that get thrown about anytime a team isn't playing well.

 

It's clear the team isn't being set out in a way they're comfortable with, or that suits their strengths, and on top of this there si no clear plan of approach in how they move the ball around to create chances.

 

Pardew, unfortunately isn't adept in coaching these things it seems. It's just not as simple as setting out good players and expecting it to magically happen.

this game isn't exciting me.

 

It isn't meant too. It's supposed to get you to appreciate how much more enjoyable it is to watch your team play.

 

Unfortunately, it doesn't serve this purpose at the moment either.
