Barnsley v Everton - A Tactical Deconstruction

[arch stanton]

Are you @the coach ?

I am the coach, and so is my wife

We're all @the coach .

No. I've advised him of what the site owner usually wants, and praised the actual post.

As I said previously, those not involved need not comment or pollute the thread. End of issue.

Perhaps you'd have been more wise to not have raised the point in the thread then. A simple private message would have sufficed, surely?

As you said however, a great post. Hopefully the OP won't be put off and will continue to contribute.

So why carry it on?

Perhaps you'll pipe down?

Don't give up. You'll come out roses on this one.

[Jags..class]

Why shouldn't he? What's it got to do with you?

Let's not pollute the thread with an argument.

I just don't want the coach to be put off from posting on here, won't say anymore on this

Great post @the coach

Keep them coming

Couple of coaching questions please!

1. How much reaction time is wasted making sure players put their hands behind their backs in the penalty area? Is it really worth it to avoid the odd penalty compared to failing to make a critical challenge?

2. Why don't players face their own goal more often when defending a dangerous free kick (goal scoring opportunity)? Is it not more important to be able to defend the goal quicker? Similarly when (say) Mirallas takes a free kick towards the keeper's right (the first goal), why aren't the strikers encouraged to follow up in that direction as opposed to setting up in a random formation on, or near, the defensive wall?
