Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Only abraham has been a completely non-entity in this game. Shame but he is just a but slow in acceleration which is no wonder given his forever legs DDA, OneMoSalah and Vesper 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDA 9,941 Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Abraham looks lost tbh. Barkley has become a machine. Im really starting to not give a fuck for SarriBallesque football ever again. I just want to see football being played at speed... deadly and clinical. So far Frank has brought that to the table. Let's see if he can keep this up in the Prem. bigbluewillie and Vesper 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NikkiCFC 8,326 Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 What a shame CHO, RLC and James are not part of the pre season. The Rising Sun, Vesper, kellzfresh and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo 21,751 Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Got to add we are doing this away vs a fellow CL team and Europa semi finalists of two years ago who are further ahead in preparation. There will be growing pains this season but when it clicks like it did in that 10 minutes not many teams will be able to live with us.

Let's see if he can keep this up in the Prem. Our transition looks absolutely brilliant. Barkley drop deep, Pedro play as no 10 is fantastic combination. Pulisic is absolutely destroying them with his run behind but Salzburg is playing a high pressing game against a better team in us. It is a bit suicidal. Defensively, I thought our midfield get passed too easily which worrying but should be much better with kante back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember a cross from Azpi to Abraham, which was horrible delivered from Azpi. Also, Emerson had a chance, but he should have passed to Abraham. Abraham needs to get better balls. He is 1,90 m and nobody can cross it seems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supermonkey92 1,428 Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Yes it's a good display but they are fucking suicidal. Once we bypass the front 4 We should able to pass like we have we so much room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's see if he can keep this up in the Prem. We are still keeping to the fundamentals which is crucial in the modern game (playing out, technical ability first) but with a lot more speed. I do think Frank is benefitting from taking over from a year of Sarri as opposed to straight from Conte. OneMoSalah 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact it was meausred often how Bellerin, Walcott, boli traore etc etc all take less time for the first 40min Plus I don't buy Tammy is only 1,90 he looks so super tall. Maybe it's because he is skinny but he looks at least my height Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
