Nero 1,874 Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 I'm so sick of seeing Mason Mount in the lineup every game. All he has is work rate. He's a squad player What the hell is wrong with Lampard? killer1257, kellzfresh and DANILA 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate him there as well but o guess the reasoning is that someone has to cover for Chilwell a forward runs and carry the ball up to the creative players. Otherwise we might look disjointed like in the mazarcar days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bayern, excuse my french, raped our midfield last season given this blatant weakness. Because Lampard doesn't know how to coordinate a proper press. Even Southampton can, this is not rocket science Bayern Munich last season in the Champions league showed everyone how high pressing is done. They pressed with the whole team, no gaps between the midfield and defence, the defence (with slow players like Boateng/Sule) came higher and maintained a high line, played the offside trap and had a sweeper keeper in Neuer to mop up long balls over the defence. The didn't let even Barcelona pass out of the defence easily. Lampard playing a high press and leaving so much space between the defence and midfield is a tactical flaw, which means he hasn't worked on pressing properly. Pressing back is the only way to beat a pressing team, unless we are ready to park the bus for 90 minutes and hit long balls to Werner/Giroud. If not naively trying to pass out of the back against a good press will result in that type of 2nd half total domination from southampton on saturday.

So now they are back we will see if Mount still squeezes himself in, starting from this weekend against Man United. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bayern are able to play a high line because their entire back line are proper footballers, and the fact Neuer is able to bail them out time and time again. We have Zouma and Dave who are notoriously known to struggle in playing it out from the back. Mendy is also incredibly poor at sweeping based on statistical analysis. If we are going to press, a midfielder needs to stay back. It's so fundamentally easy to sort out yet it continues to happen! kellzfresh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they win their 2 games in hand , they could potentially be top of the league. They lost recently because they had an early red card , other than that wins and a draw with Barca Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
