It’s not that the man on the ball has virtually no options to pass.Ange's football is built on passing patterns rather than taking your man on and running.
But for some reason he has us set up with so much space in between all sections of the team so build up becomes very tricky. So players prefer keeping possession and passing home than pulling off a risky pass.
Because we have Johnson and Werner in attack that can't keep the ball?Not really understanding why we seem frightened to pass it forward quickly against Conference opposition.
The answer is simple really. We don't put our players further forward in positions to get the ball.Not really understanding why we seem frightened to pass it forward quickly against Conference opposition.
Compared to Johnson and Werner?
Missing a focal point up top.
Because we're Tottenham, super Tottenham from the lane?Not really understanding why we seem frightened to pass it forward quickly against Conference opposition.
And rightly so. This is on Ange for not starting Lankshear.We don’t trust Johnson and Werner. Moore is the only one they want to give the ball to.
