Davefevs Posted January 14, 2022 Report Share Posted January 14, 2022 Some good stuff about the striker’s runs, not just taking up positions without any thought. Quality, brilliant, lovely! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cidered abroad Posted January 14, 2022 Report Share Posted January 14, 2022 I like these videos and wish that we'd had this technology when I was a boy. We just had matches to see how the pros did things and then we'd try and copy in the streets and the parks. I've just read Andy Cole's book and he stresses how important training should be productive and enjoyable. Fleming clearly follows the same thinking. The number of accurate shots and headers was high - I wonder why they rarely show the same accuracy in shooting warm up on the pitch before matches? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxjak Posted January 14, 2022 Report Share Posted January 14, 2022 Very Jealous..........I'd love to still be able to train, (and play) especially if it was with a great trainer like Curtis. Although Most of my shots would have ended up over the bar. Don't Pro footballers have a pheckin' great life? Ha! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sh1t_ref_again Posted January 14, 2022 Report Share Posted January 14, 2022 For footballers at this level, playing against no defence and half hearted attempts by a keeper, bit surprised to see them miss and also some poor 1st touches. Its about the instinctive shot and getting it on target whilst dealing with the pressure from the defender or making the run to create the opportunity, not sure how this prepares them. Also, no Aw?

Taz Posted January 14, 2022 Report Share Posted January 14, 2022 Interesting video, some nice touches and finishes there, so it begs the question why do we not try to play more like that more often? Yes it's a lot different playing in front of a defence, but sometimes recently we've struggled to string 2 or 3 passes together and get a shot on target! Encouraging though, be interesting to see how we play against Fulham. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cityloyal473 Posted January 14, 2022 Report Share Posted January 14, 2022 I don't know whether to laugh or cry after watching that. Perhaps we're trying to lull Fulham into a false sense of security by pretending we're shit before turning into Brazil 1970 on Saturday. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Encouraging though, be interesting to see how we play against Fulham. To be fair, just checked and we have had 30 shots on target in our last 5 games. This is definitely an improvement compared to recent times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ralphindevon Posted January 14, 2022 Report Share Posted January 14, 2022 I’m no massive Palmer fan and at the time didn’t think we should have signed him but if he doesn’t leave presumably we’ll see him in action soon. Even as a super sub he’s too good to ignore altogether and surely better than having two goalies as subs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unan Posted January 14, 2022 Report Share Posted January 14, 2022 (edited) A good look as to a) how much better pro players are and b) how getting a shot off is very difficult with even one defender between you and the goal Edited January 14, 2022 by Marcus Aurelius 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
