PEH and Moura are the only 2 who press in our current team.Son has done well in a press under Poch. He has the work rate, intelligence and ability to do well. GLC in MF is perfect for a press, he is very quick and able to get up quickly on defenders. He also is good and the in close tackles as well.
Bergwijn has the ability to press if he is playing on RW. PEH is also someone perfectly suited to press in MF, probably actually the role he should be used in more than being a traditional DM, he work rate and willingness to run all day would fit well with in a pressing system, especially if directed better on how/when to press in a coordinated manner so he wasn't the only one doing it like he often does now.
Bale probably doesn't work well under this system, but I doubt he is here next year anyways. Alli could if he put effort into it, but like Bale I think he is gone.
Guys like Lamela, Moura both can press, but hopefully are gone.
The reason guys run that long, which is obviously vastly overrated by you, has nothing to do with our inability to press.
PEH and Moura are the only 2 who press in our current team.
Son has not pressed for 2 seasons.
We have a squad now that are not prepared or can't be bothered to work hard enough to win back the ball.
OK I bow to your superior Knowledge but just watching us play and the last 2 seasons results we have achieved tells us all exactly how good this squad is.Has Son not pressed because he can't or isn't asked to?
GLC can definitely press, Lamela can definitely press.
I know that your thing is to run down all the players and talk about how dogshit they all are but if you are just going to lie or ignore things then what is the point of even responding?
Seeeen sc saying levy aint got money and we must lower expectations.

Supporters like you will accept any old shit that the team serves up and put a positive spin on things while people like me will not accept the shit we are being served up.
The vast majority of the squad lack the basics in football which is you have got to win the right to play( ie get the better of your direct opponent).This is the same shit you always do when called out on your BS is make shit up.
Supporters like me? I have called out the team for not being good enough, got shit on plenty here for saying players aren't good enough. I am not accepting anything. Just because I don't think every player we have is shit does not mean I am accepting whatever they give us.
How is saying that we have players that would work in a press putting a positive spin on anything? It is stating my opinion on how they could play in a specific system.
I know it is my fault for repeatedly banging my head against the wall with you and I should just move on and ignore, but it might be worth it for you try to and read what is said rather than just making up the argument to fit the narrative you want to push.

How many of the current squad are willing to do this in games that really matter?
Game after game these shithouse players do not stand up and be counted ( last 4 finals no goals scored).
Yesterday was like watching a division 2 team against City we hardly strung 4 passes together during the entire game.
The first half yesterday I think we actually saw the ball up at our end of the stadium 3 or 4 times.
The ironic cheers when we actually got a corner in the first half was very telling.
We have a shit squad and have needed a massive clear out for at least 2 years but idiots like you will continue to bury your head in the sand.
Your making the mistake of using facts wave your arms around a bit and talk about passionWhat does the last 4 finals have to do with this squad? Barely any of them have played in more than one and none have played in more than 2 of them?
And no the vast majority of the squad do not lack the basics in football. That is complete shit.
Yes yesterday sucked and showed the gap in talent between us and City, it was not close to a division 2 team though, again more needless hyperbole.
LOL
I have said we need a massive clear out, said it all over this site but idiots like you will ignore so they can rant about the BS narrative they have made up in theirs heads.
Chelsea 2015 Lloris Kane and Dier all started with Lamela on the bench.What does the last 4 finals have to do with this squad? Barely any of them have played in more than one and none have played in more than 2 of them?
