southvillekiddy Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 From the highlights it seems that Marlon showed again he is the master of the disguised pass, throwing the opposition of the scent as he passes in an unexpected direction while shaping up to do something more obvious. Did it to put Joe in for the first against Man U and again for the second on saturday. Always dreamed about having clever, skilful players and best of all nippy, quick thinkers at our Club. Marlon, Pato, Brownhill, Joe and ......... Bobby. Bobby has a sublime touch, passes creatively as well as showing true goal-scoring instinct. What a brilliant time to be following City.

nickolas Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 For the haters, im afraid to say this method of passing has only come into marlons game since he played with tubby Tomlin. If Lee didnt do much for us, im sure he in a small way has improved marlon for us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've got a group of players that will now try things that they may have thought were beyond them - result - we're capable of beating the best including Man Utd.. We have to give the coaching staff credit for this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jcolebristol Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Beat me to it - was gonna say the same. Tomlin definitely taught the rest that pass! Marlon made 3-4 passes yesterday that we’re tomlin-esque. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alessandro Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 For me, Marlon, along with Bobby are the two most improved players under LJ. He has a much more complete game these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think LT had a big influence on some of Bobby’s technique too....the "control and roll" your marker in one touch is one such thing. Luckily Bobby has the speed to get away from his man.

He also learned a lot from Tammy about finishing, being in the right place at the right time. Says more about Bobby and his willingness to learn from others than anything else IMO.

I thought he was a liability myself but it’s good to see him pursuing another career that he enjoys.

He still has to have the technique and awarness to play the pass. All credit goes to Marlon Pack who has been one of the most underated CM players to have ever worn the shirt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
