Haha yeah mental, the thing is when you boot the ball up the pitch you're more that likely to use up more energy chasing 2nd balls and then if you lose it pressing to get it back, it's such an English thing just to boot it as far away from the goal as you can, mind you I think pundits have most passed this but seeing as it's Ange and he's an Aussie from the SPL and he's 'naive' they think they know best I suppose.

And like, EVERYTHING about that game on a tactical level was about the teams baiting the other's press and dragging defenders up the pitch and apart from each other to open space to play into.

I am by no means a Tactics Knower, but if you don't get the basics of that, what game are you watching?
 
Everyone talking about the media's reaction, they are NEVER going to give us a fair shake, so I wouldn't bother thinking about it, even when we were at our best under Poch they would hardly ever talk us up.

Yet when the Gooners scrape past Palace yesterday, they had two puff pieces for them in the same hour.

Carragher and Redknapp nailing it. They are actually coming across as honestly wanting to see us win and that makes a refreshing change for sky. You can see as ex players they know how close we could be just with a few tweaks.

They even acknowledged it must be aging us watching them.

Some of our Levy Fans don't see it the same. I too believe what they are saying is sensible. Ange isn't good enough for a Title Chase. Not wanting to adapt will undo him.
