Forgetting how tedious the footballs been for a second can someone with coaching badges or more footballing knowledge than me explain what our tactics are trying to achieve. (Not a thread to bash Critchley but a genuine question)
For 3 and a half games now its been give it to big Marv who sends it long to lavery or a big switch to the wing practically every time we’re in possession. It happens so frequently that it has to be part of the coaching. Clearly its not working but hypothetically if it was working what would that look like?
I don’t see how it can cause any problems for defences at all because whenever the player receives the ball its always been in the air for eternity and then the receiver has to bring it down at chest or head height under pressure and more often than not go back.
So i suppose my question is why are we doing it? Critchley isnt stupid so there must be some purpose to it but i just don’t get it at all?
