Now with Neto in you cannot easily and efficiently make those central areas attacking pass and move or shape dragging movements. You have to stick wide, making you more predictable and more less able to score

Unnecessary draw, so unnecessary to give points away, Why tackle like that in the box? why why why why? must you always tackle? why do we do ourselves like this? We were 100x better than them

Double Trouble
As much as our ego may want us to think otherwise, Aston Villa are the real enemy in this top-four/Five race. Not United, not Liverpool.
And thatβs exactly why the Leeds draw felt worse than heartbreak. That was a golden chance to protect the gap, starve them of oxygen, and finish them later. We bottled it.
Liverpool? Theyβve been here before. They know how to suffer, regroup, and storm back when it matters. You never rule them outβever.
United? Different danger altogether. Theyβve got some sense of invisibility now. Dangerous belief. The kind that makes average teams punch above their weight. Add the hunger, the desperation to taste Champions League nights again, and now when they are smelling it, they will be baying for anyone's and everyone's blood.
And letβs be honestβtheyβve got the schedule advantage. One game a week. No Europe. No rotation headaches.
While the rest of us are running on fumes, theyβre resting, preparing, sharpening knives.
Theyβve already survived most of the big games . Meanwhile, our fixture list reads like a punishment. Heavyweights stacked back-to-back with little room for mistake.
Then you rewind to that Arsenal performanceβeverything spineless and cowardly. No fight. Heads gone. Dick and balls cut.
And every time key players come off, the whole team becomes a structural fraud. We don't just weaken, we collapse. We scream shithousery, cheap harlots to be screwed by anyone in any style.
Then Weβve got a manager still learning his squad, players still figuring out the manager, and βbig-game tacticsβ that feel more like live experiments than plans.
Maresca perfected the art of losing against shit teams.
Rosenior, that Arsenal game, the game plan that screamed βletβs surviveβ instead of βletβs win. That's what worries me the most.
Doesn't smell like a confidence inducing top-four charge.
It's flirting with disaster.
It's double trouble.

Former Hull City vice-chairman Tan Kesler on Rosenior:
π£οΈ "I asked him in our first meeting over coffee where he saw himself in five years. Knowing Championship coaches have short lifespans, I wanted to see if he was pragmatic or really ambitious. He said: 'I see myself coaching in the Champions League'."

Andrey Santos is key to how we play under Rosenior. Moving the ball quick and vertical is very important and he does that without fear or hesitation. Lavia is another guy that can do this at a very high level but he's never fit. To have Santos stepping upβ¦
Just some cases of Andrey Santos moving the ball through the pressing and finding difficult angles for the passes.

Screw It!
There are so many things I like about Rosenior tactics.
The structural control, the dynamic attacking approaches, the interchanges and combination plays in midfield and attacking areas... The things I wanted Maresca to do but he was stubborn.
I see him even trying out a back five ( people like fooling themselves that it's a back three). I donβt actually have a problem with Rosenior switching to a back three. In fact, done properly, it's a serious potent weapon we can use to smash and grab the Champions league.
The issue to me isnβt the shape. Itβs the cowardly way itβs being deployed.
Two things specifically. The Delap-on-the-wings Hull city experiment and the back 9 with one striker upfront nonsense.
Then there is the back five PLUS three defensive-minded midfielders formation.
Pure football terrorism.
One I'd rather donate my scrotum to Hyena orphanage than support
With a back five, You can comfortably and safely do a combination of two involving any of Enzo, Caicedo and Santos and still have the attacking threat of both Palmer and Estevao. For heavenly sake and for the sanity of the sport you don't need the three of them in with these set up. Unless we have privately and shamelessly accepted to turn into Stoke City.
They say, The best way to defend is to attack. And just like we found out against Arsenal, you can deploy those shitty negative tactics and still be hammered.
The First half Leeds tactics before the substitutions with a back four and the three midfielders was also awesome. Brilliant stuff.
Now we have seen Rosenior abilities with small teams. Next I just need my man to grow some more pairs of balls when it matters against equal or better strength opponents.
The chelsea spirit is we die on our knees standing, rather than screwed on all fours on our knees begging.
The man looks tactically intelligent to me. He just fixes his balls and guts, and he will be here for a long haul.

Thoughts π? Does Lavia walk straight into the XI when heβs fit again?
Laviaβs press resistance and ball retention is far superior to anyone in the team.
Andreyβs ability to break up play and recycle possession is unique too
Close call but Lavia edges it at the moment. What yβall think?

π£οΈ Willian on Mourinho: "I never saw him lost: he always knew exactly what needed to be done, how the team should play, defend, and attack.
He wasnβt a coach who spent hours on the pitch working on tactics; sometimes, 10 minutes was enough for the players to understand exactly what he wanted for the game. Heβs definitely an exceptional and very intelligent coach."
