We can't wait until the last 10 minutes to score. Squeeze them now Keeping the ball and making them run around is part of the squeeze. Doesn't always have to be gung-ho storming forwards, especially when they have an excellent and speedy dribbler like Saint-Maximin in their ranks. Keep the ball, keep them moving, and keep the pressure on them that way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not played a full game at this level. He's still finding his feet. I'm not writing off his future contributions. Just commenting on his current play. Decent header a minute ago Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gibson randomly playing like a poor mans Beckenbaur right now. To be fair, is there really such a thing as a rich man's Beckenbauer! 😉 We're still looking for a Hans-Georg Schwarzenbeck!!

The Great Mass Debater 1,090 Posted November 30, 2021 Missed the first 15 mins as thought it started at 19.45 82 minutes against 10 men against the worst team in the division based on league position and form table. If we cant win this - who can we beat? Gauntlet has been thrown down Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No but it was deflected into his arm by our player about a yard in front of him, nothing the player could do about it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They only need a sniff, and with this crowd, will give their players the extra 10% they need. Squeeze the confidence out of them and make that crowd turn. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
