That may be the case but Rash is a better dribbler and more creative. I never said Greenwood is a copy of Rash Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk

I edited it. Typo haha. Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk

I agree. 120 Mio. on Sancho would be a waste of money when you have someone like Greenwood. Greenwood is another Rashford Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk

Neither Mount Barkley nor Kante are good enough for build up. Only Jorgi and Billy are decent Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk

Does not matter because it is United. In their last match against Brighton, they were offside too when I think Fernandes scored Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk

Haven't United loaned out a goalkeeper that is better than De Gea? Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk

Should he have said that guys like Rüdiger and Alonso do not have high football IQ and do not know the basics instead? I went to the details because everyone here thinks that everything is Lampards fault when it comes to set piece defending. I just said that we have to look deeper into it. It is not a coincidence that Sarri and Lampard struggle to solve our set piece defending. Why? Because of the details I pointed out. Lampard can only tell them everything how to do this or that, but when the players do not have the football IQ to know positional awareness in a game, or how to position your body in different moments of the game individually to win tackles or when to time your jumps, what is he supposed to do. You can have the best defense coach of all time and he will not make Rüdiger nor Alonso into top class defenders. You can have the best attacking coach of all time and he will not make Willian into prime Hazard. When Hazard was in his prime, regardless of the coach he delivered. He delivered under Conte, Mourinho and Sarri and carried us for a long time. Willian had many coaches and never got his football IQ right. Never. Why? He is just not good enough to work his weaknesses out. I never see people criticizing Lampard for not improving Willian. Why? Because it is hopeless. I would understand if Sarri or Conte made our defenders turn into prime Maldini and Lampard turned them into shit, but that is just not the case. We were garbage at defending last season and we still are. We were garbage under Conte (second season) and we still are garbage .There is a reason why Conte switched from a back 4 to a back three because he knew we were this bad and we got slaughtered by Arsenal. He switched into a defensive 3-4-3 and offensive wise it were only Costa, Prime Hazard and Cesc. In the end, we won the title because we parked the bus and whenever we had the ball, Cesc passed it to Costa and Hazard. Hazard won us the title. Second season did not work well for Conte because Hazard was out of shape. So basically his whole system worked because of Hazard. Rest is history Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk

Today I read on Twitter that Alonso wins 56% of his areal duels, while Digne wins 60% and Chilwell wins 58%. Zouma wins 74% of his aerial duels (in my opinion our best defender and I say that often here on this platform), while Rüdiger only wins 58% of his duels and AC the same. Mount only wins 18%. Our players are just not smart enough with timing, positional awareness and positioning of body do they could win many tackles. Height plays also a role with Azpi and Mount for instance. There is no coach in the world that could teach them that when they are this old. You can't teach the basics to a 29 year old Rüdiger, who played midfielder and striker til he was 16 years old. Not going to happen. Sarri failed to make us better at set pieces too. Our players are not good enough. And Sarri said height is an issue too. God help him too. The difference in Rüdiger and VVD is that VVD has high level of football IQ. He knows positioning, he knows how to use his height to his advantage and his timing is also great. Fabinho also has high level of football IQ and knows in which moment to jump and where he should position himself to do so. Alonso is just too stupid for that even though he is more or less the same height. You can't make Rüdiger into VVD just like you can't make Willian into prime Hazard. Just not going to work Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk

Finding wingers that are tall and good is very difficult. With Werner, yes, there are taller strikers available that are also good. What did you think of Sarri that said that he likes Emerson as a player, but because we struggle with set pieces, we need Alonso as a LB? Sarri said that we have many small players and Alonso is essential because of his height. So two coaches in a row saying that haha Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk

Antonio Rüdiger had an Interview with German Sky and he was asked how can he convince Havertz to come to Chelsea hahaha. Rüdiger answered that he and Havertz do have "normal contact" with each other and when they first trained elwith each other for German national team, he did not know him, but he was blown away by his qualities. Rüdiger also said that he would lie if he said that he does not want Havertz at Chelsea Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk

By the way, Sarri said last season that Alonso is essential for us because of his height and that is why he needs to play. We conceded more from set pieces in PL last season under Sarri than under Lampard this season, but season still is going on Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk

I still would rather buy Milenkovic, who seems more physical. We could buy Torres one year after that, so we had one very strong defender and one very technical defender Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk

So we still have conceded less from set pieces under Frank compared to Sarri. But the season still is not over. Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk

I remember that we were conceding a lot from corners because Rüdiger and Luiz are garbage defenders and have no positional awareness. Especially we conceded after the second half started. But I also remember we were garbage when we defended indirect free kicks. So, maybe someone can get deeper into it Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk

Didn't we concede 15 goals from set pieces last year under Sarri? I think only Cardiff was worse. I think that we faced the least corners and conceded the most percentage wise Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk

Ahh okay. I interpreted your okay gif as you not believing me^^. Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk

You did not believe me that big clubs do zonal marking lol. Even in this article, Lampard says that Pool does zonal marking. Now, you can search for other big teams that do that too [emoji57] Now, back to the topic. We have tall players. When Ruben plays, we have Giroud/Tammy, Ruben, Alonso, AC and hopefully Zouma as tall players. Usually that is enough. Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk

[mention=16599]Vesper[/mention] You also mentioned this Pao Torres in your CB talent list. How much do you rate this guy, because I assume you have watched him okay Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk

Nothing new. Uli already said weeks ago that they cannot afford him this window, but would go for him next window Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk

United does zonal marking, Klopp always teaches zonal marking to his teams, Manchester City use zonal marking, so all the modern big teams use zonal marking. Even Conte used zonal marking when he was here Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk

I have seen not one top team that does man marking Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk

And how many top teams do man marking? Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk

Holy shit haha. Never thought that Chelsea would suck this bad at defending corners Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk

But Rüdiger+AC is a disaster too haha. But in my opinion, Zouma still is our best defender. He needs to start more often Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk

RLC looked good too and CHO never lost his pace. I have seen him play for the U23 when he came after 5 months injured back and was outpacing the defenders of the opponent. People think he is slow because he dribbles slow but when we look at CHO just sprinting, he still is fast. He just lost a little bit of tempo dribbling, which he used to be good at Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk
