Summer Friendlies - 2019

[spintheblackcircle]

What a rocket by Moura.

I really think Spurs are going to score a shitload of goals this season

 

[spintheblackcircle]

KWP beat for the equalizer. Not good to see that.

 

[Havre]

You are blaming KWP for that? The defender with the least amount of blame.

Rose should not be positioned behind the three others. Both Sanchez and Vertonghen can’t push up at the same time. Especially Sanchez gets caught between.

Never the full backs job to cover on the inside there.

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

Yeah, Kyle wasn't the issue.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

He may scored from the inside, but he was the outside man breaking into the middle. Both CB were marking other men is how I saw it.

 

[Havre]

If only the CDs had actually marked anyone. In any case both CDs can never vacate the center.

Spurs look quite crap to be honest. Not all that important, but clearly struggling to find the right kind of space. Creating basically nothing - against a team without forwards and further away from the start of the season.

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

Poch needs to revert to his 4-2-3-1.

 

[AB13]

What a goal by Aubameyang, and a nice setup by Özil. We have been a lot better than Barcelona today.

 

[Cassano]

The best passer between the teams, Ozil with the assist and the best scorer Aubameyang puts the Mightiest Club ahead.

 

[S E P H]

Man Ozil has actually looked awesome thus far in the preseason. Fantastic goal by Auba, Barca players just ball-watching there.

 

[AB13]

Guendouzi possibly has the worst positioning sense I have ever seen from a professional footballer. He is completely unable to position himself on the pitch and just runs around like a headless chicken without ever doing anything useful in the pressing. He just opens up space for Barcelona to create, ever since he came on we have looked vunerable. He is a complete defensive liability and is taking way to many touches on the ball which slows every counter attacking opportunity down.

 

[Cassano]

Unfortunate own goal by AMN, but he's played well. Better now than vs. Newcastle next week...

 

[Cassano]

Mustafi comes on and we immediately concede. He's got to go robbie

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Can someone start a 2020 thread? These have started for a lot of clubs.

I'd start it myself, but I'm not allowed to for reasons I don't believe I'm allowed to speak about.
