I don’t disagree. So much could have gone wrong and so much went right. Eddie being the biggest part of that. Howay the fucking lads. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They took the standing on their table and chanting pretty well despite being clearly gutted.

Wilson Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 final whistle went and our table was already being stood on, as I say it was all took in jest and they were sound. Just 2 on the plane being complete arseholes. Clearly steaming shouting, swearing, one of them telling each of his mates individually 'them jardies fuckin stink' while ironically wearing the same blue Adidas hoodie we'd seen him in a few times over the weekend. Standing in the aisle making sure everyone heard him say 'I fuckin hate jaarrdies me' and waiting for a laugh. Just obnoxious and pretty embarrassing for anyone around them really.

If this is a tactic we're going to be using, I wonder how proactive Eddie will be in getting him back into the team. Liverpool's goal of the season so far came from a clearance from their goalkeeper, so there's no shame in this tactic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd assume, and I'm no Eddie Howe, that long passes from the defence to the opposition final third will just be another string to the bow. As it were. We've got nippy forwards, so why not. Ultimately the way we're playing, very "on the front foot", demands a whole range of ways to break through opposition barriers. As for the long ball itself, there's never been any shame in it at all. Very much the opposite. The negativity attached to it is from managers/teams who do fuck all else. Furthermore when they do, do it, they mainly fuck it up.

Furthermore when they do, do it, they mainly fuck it up. Nice, long precision pass > hoofball I can't remember which analyst/statto was going on about it. But the long pass or channel ball. Is actually a good way for us to set up our counter press, as well. I don't think it is purely 'percentage football' and just hitting an area and then resetting our shape once we have a bit of time to do so, or from a goal kick or throw or anything like that. More that we will look to exploit that space in behind with one of the front 3 and if we aren't retaining possession. It is a launchpad for us to get players in their half, press and try and win the ball back. I don't see it as some sort of sand in the corners, TURN 'EM ROUND, Allardyce type football.

jackyboy Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 You can hit long balls when you've got the likes of Trippier, Botman and Schar all capable of pinging 50/60 yard passed to people's feet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
