Unlike ours who are knackered and play with less intensity. Wonder if Bielsa is giving them magic potion like they get at Juve? Ha, there's a thought! I think the shape doesn't help either for us, but surely helps a lot for them- we play in a certain way, they play in another- I bang on about it a lot but 3 in CM really gives you the platform to press, how we chop and change and often play, does not.

No. Because if the first had gone in, the game would have panned out differently. Four chances to score is more accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedRock Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 Impressive. Assume that’s LJs vision of how we should be playing. Four years on, 50 odd transfers and we’re miles off.

They play so expansive. They make the pitch huge. Yet they cover all of it, in numbers. Never seen such energy in numbers over all the pitch. It's superb to watch. 2 minutes ago, Moments of Pleasure said: No, he give them magic potion between the ear, belief.

CityCiderEd Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 As LJ is giving the players 4 days off I would make it compulsory that they watch the first half of this game over and over just to watch what happens when there is movement all over the pitch .Leeds have been brilliant to watch and making Arsenal look poor.

One of the top clubs as it goes...Barcelona. His philosophy is at one with theirs IMO. Okay fair enough, there's more too it possibly- but stylistically and philosophy wise, I say again- at one!

We can only dream about this effort and style. + Losing Ayling one of our dumbest moves. Amazing what you can achieve by investing properly in coaches as well as players isn't it? As for Ayling, all clubs will release players they shouldn't have but Ayling is currently making Lee Johnson's judgement look extremely poor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
