I had assumed that EFL teams are coached to play out from the back because the coaches sometimes get better jobs for implementing the system.
The same with the 4:2:3:1 approach. It might not work with the players you have but you may be moving on to a team that needs that approach and therefore you become more marketable as a coach.
Exacerbated by owners and CEOs who are clearly trying to find players for this systems so they can sell them to a bigger club. Round pegs in round holes - Ka’ching.
Not unique to football.
We see this everyday at work too - people who didn’t give a shit about ESG and climate yesterday who claim to be an expert today so they get a promotion or a role with another employer. |

Too soon for another thread covering midweek, let alone next season.
Seriously, where do you go in terms of selection in the next game after this one ? Add Dembele and go for the shortest average height awards ?
There’s clearly an agenda coming out in public now and it’s not a good look for anyone.
I guess the ‘chicken children’ are ‘manifesting’ it somewhere else but it felt like a dogleg in the wrong direction today for this boomer. |

That selection was as bad as the FA Cup towel throw.
And whilst Alfie may not be the best option, when you are the only striker option and still not selected ahead of non strikers, I would expect confidence to be low.
As for Smyth, he’d a least have had a go on the wing. Yang did nothing worth keeping him on for - not for us or Spurs, who he is contracted to.
Either someone’s sending childish messages or that was a cock up. Possibly both but at this stage of the day, a beer or five may be the next best, bad decision. |
