There's a great clip somewhere with Henry talking about this when he went to Barca - went off piste, scored a goal and ended up in Pep's bad books.

Pep has had such an enormous impact on football, and not all of it good.

No different to the bloke that managed Cambridge (Beck?). Any player that tried something other than his instructions got a bollocking.

He didn't play possession stuff, more lump it to the wide man, cross, score. No fancy shit.

 

[Loki]

Who are the ones we have then?

I don`t think we have any leaders in the squad.

Almost feels that some version of this would have a significant impact on the Premier League now.

Given the inability for teams to defend set pieces, and/or defend a high ball. Traditional "head it and kick it" defenders and old school hairy arsed centre forwards in a direct/long ball team would be effective.

If you want Tony Pulis at Wolves then just say so, man.

 

[PuntsWolf]

Classic spurs. Who says corners are low odds chance!

I've thought this too (I'm not advocating it as something good to watch).
Could it work? I'd like to see someone try it to shake things up though.

 

[Wolftone]

Great goal from Iwobi that.

 

[Wolftone]

Bournemouth doing to spurs what they did to us pressing the keeper and defence when 'playing out from the back' and scoring. Unlucky to be ruled out for offside.

 

[ROVERT47]

It’s a travesty that a team like Bournemouth can look so comfortable in the Premier League while we’ve looked anything but since Nuno was sacked.
Just shows what can be achieved by the appointment of a good Coach.
They certainly knew what they were doing when they fucked off that con artist we inherited.

Unlike West Ham.

 

[Wolftone]

This could genuinely have been 5-0 to Bournemouth.

 

[ROVERT47]

Even though we we’re all pleased when when we finally got Lopetegui, he’s proved to be almost as big a con man as O’Neil.

 

[Wolftone]

Great performance that. 100% effort and team spirit. Too much for Spurs to cope with.

 

[Mel Evo]

Unlike West Ham.

It’s hilarious isn’t it, look how awful they are after appointing a mug of a manager.

Up there. Thumping us. Look at them. Hahahaha.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

May be just because we seem to concede off all of them. But there has been loads more goals from set pieces this season hasn't there?

I need to check.

 

[Wilf Wolf]

As the Merseyside derby was postponed I’m watching Sunderland v Stoke. Suffice to say it’s reinforced my view that there are absolutely no positives about getting relegated and playing in the Championship.

 

[leedswolf]

Great start from Citeh...

 

[The Bear]

Forest 3-1 up at Old Trafford now.

 

[Squeak]

Sa says "Thank You " to Onana...
