Alph Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 Nobody can move faster than the ball. I just hope that Camara and Blackman bring quality first and pace second. Watching Russell get sent packing down the line and smash the ball into the box to the defender on the near post is good defensive play. Not good attacking. I don't know if it's Leicester's success that has everyone pace mad. But Leicester have good footballers. They had all this pace last season. They aren't suddenly the perfect philosophy any more than Man City, Arsenal etc. Watford are doing very well too. Actually been unlucky in a few defeats. But pace is quite short in their team. I just want players to be able to play in and off Martin. Running fast might excite fans but that's a whole different sport. How often as a team have we destroyed or been destroyed by the running speed of players. The pace of the ball is everything. Which is why in Mac's first season nobody could cope with us. Think Newcastle went down the big, fast and strong players route. And Arsenal for a while. Both suffered. I understand the call for direct play. But it's got to be more than running down the line. As for pace making defences go deep... yeah they do. But then what? You've got no pitch left to use that pace and you've got a midfield that has room to play and 11 men in front of them. That's when these pace players need to be able to play a bit too. In tight areas at speed. Not that I'm writing off our new signings. Camara could have the technique of Dawkins, Butters and Hughes put together for all I know. I'm just talking about pace not being enough. Tyson was the fastest footballer I've seen in person. Yet his legs moved too fast for him. He never looked up. That was the last time Rams fans were calling for pace. And that's what we got. Pace and bugger all else.

As long as we don't sign Hale and all, coz these two don't bring quality, and don't do comedy, that's Hale and Pace not our spanking new signings who haven't played a game for us yet, so all the very best of luck to them both.

toddy Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 Gifted pacey strikers win hands down to old fashioned static target men. The most of the best players in the world past and present have both gifted and pacey. Defending against pacey strikers is very difficult as they are constantly moving across the front line, dragging centre backs all over, which in turn opens up holes in their defence. Defending against target man is much easier, even more so if you press higher up the field, forcing the midfield to sit deeper and in turn isolating the target man. No, much rather have pace up front. All we have to do now is start to release the ball quicker, back to pass and move, now where is Hughes!

Lewandowski,Muller, Diego Costa,Drogba(prime), Benzema , Kluivert are not slow at all. The rest of the players on that list, barring Giroud are/were still faster than the defenders they were up against but were gifted in other areas of their game so always had a headstart.

They used to reckon that Jimmy Greaves was the fastest over 1 yard - that was all he needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
