I agree. I see some saying Richy is no good... but I'll reserve judgement until his philosophy is embedded. Brentford defended very well and they are no mugs at home. It reminds me of the period after Poch had settled. His football was dominant against most teams and we struggled to breakdown defensive teams. I think Ange's system can eventually overcome this, but he's completely right, it requires more movement, directness and speed from the players who have advanced into the final third.
Pinnock reminds of that Neanderthal, Keown. Like a rash

I like his criticism of the referee.

Was with regards stoppage time but already shows he's happy to raise these issues for us.

What did he say sorry? I must have missed it.

I think the ref was told to reign in his bias at half time. Pentford just assumed it would be more like the first half and were flopping about the place diving in the 2nd.

It was like watching Burnley but with more cheating.

"I have a minor issue with the fact that I don't think we would be playing so much extra time if referees would hurry people up early in the game. It seems like they only hurry goalkeepers up in the last five minutes when they should be doing it in the first five minutes.

If you do that kind of stuff then you don't need that extra time and hopefully the game flows, but from my perspective I felt there would be a fair bit. You don't want it to be a constant because if it is a constant then it means there's been a lot of stoppages and I don't think that's what we want. I think the idea of it is to play football but we'd rather watch football played at a flowing rate rather than stop start, stop start and trying to get minutes out of the game.

The official can help that by allowing the game to move on when it's required."
 
Ange is a proven winner and people sense that in him.
When our players can take that mantra in fully and run with it, wow!
