First half we got it completely wrong. We tried to win the ball high up the pitch and it failed and Leicester were able to bypass the midfield.
2nd half we tightened it up, Grimes and Torp actually played alongside one another and the issues corrected themselves. We looked comfortable in the...
When you play against the low block, you need wingers who can take on defenders. Esse had 5/6 successful dribbles v Leicester which is incredible output in 67 minutes.
For context, Sakamoto has had 12 successful dribbles all season (i.e. took on a defender).
A tap in is the ideal goal for a striker, being in the right position is a skill in itself that a lot of people overlook.
I agree, it’s not clear Sakamoto’s shot goes in so why wouldn’t you want a striker to make sure?
He could probably be a decent role player for a few bottom half championship teams. I was impressed with his performance v Stoke and there’s definitely talent there.
The stakes are just too high for us to give him minutes. It’s £200m we stand to lose out on if we fail to get promoted.
He actually took on defenders too. 5/6 successful dribbles is great stat line and exactly what we need.
I thought Sakamoto looked a lot better coming off the bench too.
Back us to win this game, Millwall are in good form but we’re at home and this is the type of game that we need to win if we’re going to finish the job.
The exact same applies to Oxford and Boro at home.
There was a period in the USA, 2006-2012 where more people voted in American Idol than the US presidential election.
Let’s be honest, anyone on this thread is a politics keeno and most of the issues we talk about, the wider public don’t really care. The Farage cameo or Jenrick defection are two...
Keep up, it’s something I called out myself.
Frankly, the general public don’t really care. Farage is not popular a politician, but they hate Labour and Tory parties.
