Synchronisation, communication & timing is what it’s all about, and we are craftsmen at our own art, you do get the occasional brain fart and occasionally we get stung, However, the trade off is the high line we use immediately puts the opposition on the back foot by squeezing the space between their 18 yard box and the half way line,
If we have the ball we can exploit their defences by attacking their defence with through balls or using Trent and Robbo to get in behind, add the tricks and flips of Bobby, the guile and artistry of Thiago, Harvey etc and the pace of Messers Salah, Mane, Jota, & Diaz we have a very very formidable team, and one I imagine will have defences up and down the land and across Europe muttering ‘ how the F**k are we gonna deal with that’?
Without the ball it’s simple, we hunt in packs until we win the ball back, and for the most part start the cycle all over again, frustrates the sh*t out of me though when we F**k about at the back, I know that’s where it all begins but we have been caught out so many times by dawdling that sometimes it’s best just to hoof the f***in thing and re-group,
But that stat where we are at 90 and the next best at 49 is Wow, mind blowing, just goes to show though that our back line is some at Carlsberg would say ‘Probably’ be interesting to see the stats of when our entire back line was decimated last season by injury and compare with when we are fully fit.
Makes you beam with pride knowing something like that, to say your almost twice as good as the next fella !!
