    Set Pieces

    Somewhere, Tony Pulis is laughing and quietly expecting a lot of apologies…

    That, or 4-4-1-1 or ol’ fashioned 4-4-2…I think our best use of Muani/Richy is in a 4-4-1-1 with Muani as the ‘shoulder’ striker operating between the 10 and 9…I always thought Johnson could play that ‘Dele’ off the shoulder role as an option, but given that successive managers have not tried...

    Depending on your perspective/context, it was either Gabriel praising his teammate amidst his teammate’s bizarre 3rd person self-glorification, or it was like being door-stepped by Jehovahs for 2 minutes!

    Did anyone see the post-match interview with Gabriel and Jesus? 😳😳😳😳😳😳😳

    Brennan Johnson

    I have always wanted to see if he could learn/play a 'second striker' role off the CF. Ghost runner through the channels. I suppose that would require a passer and a style we are not interested in...

    Key moment of that match too. They go to 10 there and it is game on.

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    It's funny you mention Brazil. I loved their 82 side. I saw every Brazil game in 1994 WC Finals bar the SF, and knew early on they'd be very hard to beat because of Dunga and to an extent Mauro Silva. Dunga was the player they needed, and he allowed a 'less than typical' Brazil game to be far...

    So it feels the same to you?

    I mean...WTF??? What a terrible non-call.

    It is odd. I am waiting to see what lies behind it...

    Richarlison

    Well we can play Odobert on the left and Muani in the middle if that's the case. That, BTW, wouldn't be 'Peter-Paul' and in fact it would be less so than playing Muani on the left and leaving Odobert on the bench (remember, I still think Odobert needs work but he is more natural there than...

    ...in which case the scouting didn't even get the right side of the pitch!

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Sadly it does seem as though many here read what I'm writing and leap to the assumption that I don't believe in adapting/tweaking when necessary, etc. I don't even know if it is worth explaining TBH, however needless to say, having watched, played, and (amateur level) coached football for the...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    1. I hope you're right. It is the only question which needs answering IMO. 2. With Pep and Klopp you have chosen two managers with such enormous personalities and definitive styles. I think you are too quick to label me as someone who does not believe in degrees of pragmatism. Not the case...

    Richarlison

    But we are very poor at getting the ball to our CF. He can’t touch the ball in the box if he isn’t getting it there. Plus, he has never been a hold-up striker. FWIW, the way we played against Palace left him having to do significant defensive work, which he did very well. He assisted Gray...
