Needs to make sure the press & counter press is always top drawer first & foremost we won our first 3 mostly through scoring with quick counters & from turn overs winning the ball in the opposition half
When we don’t have that right we always struggle it’s THE most important aspect of our game with these players
It was the same under Jurgen last season, always in fact, when the press & counter press & intensity were below par, so were we
Today was the worst performance I’ve seen from us in several years though, completely toothless no variation of mixing it up poor press poor timing orf runs & passes to connect them
Just shite
And why I don’t like overly tappy crappy for the sake of it
