The way we want to play football is just far too tactically advanced for these players to grasp before they've played 15-20 games together, obviously.

It should require some form of skill to score a goal not just brute force Archied 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curtains Posted September 6, 2023 Author Share Posted September 6, 2023 The whole point about getting out this Div is play the Warne way for the Division. Fancy Dan football won’t work. That’s why I say expectations are maybe too high for the beautiful game RoyMac5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let us not forget that for the first time since Lampard, a manager has had a full preseason with no behind the scenes excuses, no covid cutting it all short. Seeing as we didn't make the play offs we had more prep time than some of the other teams! But yes, clearly a seriously complicated tactical set up... To answer the original question. No. Expectation should be top 2. In our owners words our budget is good enough to get us out of this league. We have appointed a promotion expert from this league, who himself saw last season as a failure. If the budget was tighter than believed, we should have been wise and chosen a formation that requires the least investment from what we have. But nevermind. We are the big fish in this pond.

Hourihane, Smith, Bird, Forsyth, Sibley, Waghorn... all have experience playing in teams who play intricate football. What Warne really means is HE doesn't know how to play complicated football.

My other half does that. Asks something, gets an answer, thinks "oh he must have not understood me" then rephrases the question. Rips my head off when she then gets the same answer.
