belaguttman Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 Terrible half, yes we should be leading 1-2 but that doesn't change the facts. We can't defend despite leading the league in balls into the box we are probably last in 'effective balls into the box' Attacking transition is so slow, first ball is always backwards Rarely get the second ball Against a good team we'd be down 3 or 4 goals 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neio Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 Serious question, from someone who watches alot of football but hasn't played at any great level With the passing back to Bouzanis every second kick,  is that the defense just doing it cause that's the plan,  or is Bouzanis calling for it?  Cause sometimes it's bloody dangerous and I can never work out who is at fault Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
belaguttman Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 Goal scored with 3 flowing quick passes, so... Back to all that sterile possession, moving the ball slowly and inaccurately, balls into the box to nobody or to a set defence with defenders playing forwards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

belaguttman Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 The only time a team has possession of the ball (as opposed to use of the ball) is when its in the goalie's hands in his box. Its a useful way to ensure possession but not useful to the extent that we use it as you've pointed out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xXCiTyZeNXx Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 So fed up with citys high defence structure. We wont win games playing that high. And wtf was that, that was a goal by colazo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
playmaker Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 Great to see Kamau get the first time cross the Bruno, amazing what happens when you move the ball quickly. Bouzanis needs to go. Let see if we remain constipated with possession for the 2nd half Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fensaddler Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 I've not been in the house for much of the first half.

I thought their goal was onside and that one of theirs disallowed well it came off Jacobsen so we might have got lucky? Plus they've largely butchered their chances, including a 1 v1. So perhaps we should be 4-2 down? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
