But Dave King coming out with it, and stating such teams, only puts unnecessary pressure on Clement. King always puts his foot in his mouth, our mouth now seeing as he fucked off.

Don't think Clement will give a single fuck what King says. If its brought to him in a presser then he will bat it away like he does with other nonsense he gets asked.

Day we played Aberdeen at home I sorted two tickets for a guy who coaches at youth level and also manages a reserve team overseas. He was asking me before the game how we played, what system etc and I just shrugged my shoulders and said if you can work it out you are doing better than me. Met him after the game to get the ST cards off him and he was laughing saying you were right, I've got not idea what I've just watched.

I think you’re giving him too much credit there. As much as he likes to think of himself as a football hipster there’s no way he was trying to implement that. We never concentrated the ball on one side of the pitch using those ‘Brazilian ladders’ to move up diagonally and the chaotic movement that Fluminense side displays wasn’t visible - if anything we were static in middle positions. It was more that we funnelled the ball narrower and narrower from our full backs in a sharp point to the opponents 18 yard box, before becoming bottlenecked, being forced into returning the ball out wide to be crossed from deep, or we simply lost possession and got pumped on the counter. It was a complete tactical clusterfuck that made no sense and had no right being introduced so radically with so many new arrivals, only to then be backtracked on after a few games. He didn’t even believe in his system! So it’s no wonder that the players didn’t have a fucking clue what he was expecting to happen and it isn’t a surprise so many of them looked so far off it. graeme_4 and GA1972 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've said this before on here but mind when all the new players were signing and there was a lot of statements flying about re him convincing them where they fit in the system that we wanted to play? I'd love to know what it was that the players thought they were signing up to. Essandoh 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
