Lots of us really buzzin with the pace and movement that appears to be the way the team intend to play this season, just one long term tactic that grinds on me ...why when were so quick do we push everyone back in our box at corners and free kicks, just one of the flying machines from the front row up on the half way line and the opposition will pull 3 defenders back which in turn weakens their attacking position..even bloody Hecky used to do it..
It's to aid quick counters. City, Spurs and Liverpool all do it too. Article here: https://www.givemesport.com/1190447...n-city-spurs-liverpool-when-defending-corners
Two ways to look at it. There's breaking up the pitch with a player that's isolated, but quick. Or having all your players break at once with the ball. We obviously prefer the latter currently.
