Greenlizard0 PL & Championship Football Thread ** spoilers ** [3rd - 6th December 2021]

We're struggling now.

Think we are a bit knackered. We pressed a lot in the first half and played with a high tempo and we have been the laziest team in the league before today. No surprise that we aren't very fit or ready to press.
 
Someone on here did say Fred will do well under new management...!

Edit: Not saying its me! :p

Fred likes to pass and move and likes a dynamic system. He could suit Rangnick well. Who knows though honestly. There have always been flashes of a good player in Fred but honestly his shooting is borderline comical most of the time.
 
I thought (and did say) Fred is ideal for Rangnick, extremely mobile and energetic player. Prone to mistakes etc though.

The big issue a lot of our players had under Ole is that they had no idea where to pass the ball or where anyone would be so they were constantly having to take a few seconds and a few touches to make that decision. That made it so easy for a well organised press to catch us out super easily. Fred has mistakes in him but I think everyone looked more error prone in a team being asked to make it up as they go along.
 
Both sides look rather tired.

Can't fault Ronaldos efforts there. Looked like a 5 year old running. So much effort but very little speed. :p

Good win. Lots of work to do and I think there are going to be a lot of pain points in sorting out our issues. Fitness, coaching and decision making all need a lot of work.
 
FT. About what I expected, some good things, some dodgy things, but a clean sheet is decent.

Fred was excellent once again.
 
Gah, 95th minute equaliser to Leeds. We'd done so much better that second half and those extra 2 points would have been massive.

No Toney against Watford or Man Utd either :(
