Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - We are SO back, the Premier League returns!

All those signings were wrong.

It didn't make any fukking sense because it was clear as day to EVERYONE that the defense is what needed an overhaul.

 

[Roid Jones]

Chavs about to appoint Tuchel or whatever is around

Tuchelball make it happen Roman

 

[blues_funk_reggae]

Any little break and dortmund players get caught severely out of position. When the fullbacks push up they're left with 2 CB's too high up and that's including a flabby Hummels.

Lamp are never deserved the job from jump. lucked out by playing talented young guns then destroyed the chemistry this season by bringing in expensive garbage. It’s perfectly appropriate that he be told to kick rocks in an hour.

 

[SCORCH]

Roman needs to keep him around

Chelsea vs Arsenal Europa league tank wars....look how far we fell breh breh

 

[Ukbrotha]

i wonder if this trend of giving just retired great players, big clubs to manage will die soon.
Its not working for frank, its nor working for pirlo, its nor working for arteta (arteta was not a great player....but still)
I know the main reason they got the job is that "they know the club".
You need some experience to manage these clubs.

Giving them the job and hoping they will rise to the occasion is just retarded
Not every retired great player is Pep or Zizou

Its the Romance factor which was starting to leave the game. A major title with a former player as head coach has a feeling that can't be beat. Especially if its a club legend.

Roma are fukking losing? I returned to parlay dominance for them to fukk it up?

Leicester's recruitment is first rate

Chelsea out here hoping for the best with no game plan or anything

 

[ciubaca]

if it was 5 - 0 no one would have been surprised

 

[Montez]

Frank needs 2 more windows to get his players and imprint on this side.

Ferguson was close to getting sacked and United backed their man. Look what happened.

Mount, Reece James, Tammy all made strides under Frank.

just because it happened to Fergie.... it doesnt mean it will happen to frank. This "trust the process" shyt does not fly anymore.
Different times
I mean.... are you seeing this fukking game?
men vs boys

Breh, I wouldn’t be shocked if he gets sacked tomorrow.

What's Havertz best position?

 

[Kunty McPhuck]

Next dortmund coach needs to move on from 4-2-3-1.

This team dead. I thought their poor form of the first half of the season, was more to do with them starting too many 20 and under players, but even with Brandt and Reus back, barring the Leipzig game, it still looks the same, even with the change of coach.

Dortmund always been at their best playing fast and especially on quick transitions of play. They've gotten into the bad habit that all talented teams do which is over play vs teams sitting deep. Don't play the ball quick enough, or drive into the box and look for 1 2's to pull defenders out, instead of playing in front of them. And with them usually playing from behind, they don't often get teams coming on to them, so they can hit them on the counter.

Any little break and dortmund players get caught severely out of position. When the fullbacks push up they're left with 2 CB's too high up and that's including a flabby Hummels.

Don't have any tactically smart defensive players. Lack proper pace in the FB areas. Also this interim coach they have, he just got the career assistant look about him.

Chelsea are just playing with attacking midfielders here. I wondered why they were getting carved open every time
