nta786 Posted 23 October, 2016 Share Posted 23 October, 2016 Sounds like a library. Agreed Clasie's orbit shot brought about a bit of noise tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint_clark Posted 23 October, 2016 Share Posted 23 October, 2016 We do seem to be sitting off which must be the tactic. Does seem very risky though to allow City to dominate the ball under no pressure. They are more than good enough to make chances. Always do in the first half - conserves energy and allows us to continually improve our performance after halftime right up to the end of the game. Look at how many of our goals have been scored in the second half this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

verlaine1979 Posted 23 October, 2016 Share Posted 23 October, 2016 Near post corners statistically result in the most goals so I can always understand going for that. I think it's tactically smart actually. Extra forward player means our weakened fullback positions won't be able to get forward as much, leaving our 3 attackers to get past 2 DM and 3 CBs. I agree - based purely on our attacking so far this season, City have no reason to play this one particularly conservatively, especially when most of the talent in their squad is up front.

Saint_clark Posted 23 October, 2016 Share Posted 23 October, 2016 Redmond and Tadic causing them problems. Austin a bit quiet, I feel. But he's been in some good positions with no defenders near him when Tadic has wasted crosses from out wide. Something to keep tabs on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lighthouse Posted 23 October, 2016 Share Posted 23 October, 2016 Putting my critical hat on, I think Forster should have been coming out for that ball. I tried looking fir someone to blame and came to the conclusion it was just a belting ball in from KDB. Perfect height, pace and far enough away from the 'keeper.

We need to take more risks up front. I know it's early-isa in the game still, but come on! Take some chances. Yup, we had a great break brewing down the left just before their disallowed equaliser. If I'm not mistaken, the usual suspect was responsible for the decision to pick a high percentage ball into midfield rather than the riskier ball down the line, and as a result we handed possession back and almost gave up the lead. It doesn't even make a lot of sense - I'd much rather lose the ball near city's corner flag than on the centre circle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
