Is Denis Lawrence our only coach with a defensive background?

Yep, but he's a development coach.. So he doesn't csoch defending apparently.
Well this new friend of attacking freedom of expression football doesn't like defending. Something I'm actual very keen on.
"Take Saturday’s recent game between two of the Premier League’s dullest outfits, Man Utd and WBA at Old Trafford. Pulis dug the trenches, spooled out the razor wire and stationed a ten strong defensive patrol at the edge of their 18 yard box. They succeeded in frustrating a regularly toothless and dull United attack until the second half, having offered nothing in attack themselves".

I don't mean if he wrote it I mean if it was a piece that someone posted from nowhere (I just found the one I posted after about 7 different people tweeted the link and it was RT'd about 100 times in 15 minutes) would he have researched the author before paying attention to the content? like he has done here, all he has done is pick holes in the opinions, which is fair game, the bit that is frustrating is the dismissal of the facts and stats in the piece.

What does Pulis have to do with it, are you suggesting that he or any poster in here wants that type of football.
What is most frustrating for me is that in his first season the 5th placed finish he achieved was almost gift wrapped for him. He had Moyse defense combined with his attacking know how and it worked almost perfectly. He had the set up of the team and there duties spot on all that was needed was to upgrade some of the personnel . 18 months down the line and our defensive capabilities are a shambles. You were so close Roberto, take a look back into recent history, you might learn something

The journalist has not been consistent with his beliefs. You cannot in one article praise a manager for playing entertaining football and having the courage to embrace it and then criticise another manager for having the same principles in the next? If Leicester have a free fall in the new year will he be praising Ranieri for sticking to his beliefs?

So we don't have anyone to actually coach our defence at all?
I think I may have identified our problem.

The way they do it wins games though. They should be praised for winning games in an entertaining way. Just as questions should be asked when the talent we have struggles to win games.

You might have to explain that one to me.
You pulled up an article from the 29th December. The article tells us we have won 6 out of 19. Yes 6. I thank you and the hack for telling me something I already know. In the article where does he point out what we may do and what is the problem?
"At what point does the mist lift from eyes distracted by the pretty passing carousel? Are those at Goodison Park transfixed and stupefied by a studious Spanish face and articulate English in a Spanish accent? At what point do you list the talent at Martinez disposal and correctly conclude that his results just don’t measure up?" Yuk.
Odd that there is no mention in the article about how many goals scored. But he likes the 'you score two, we score three' attitude to football from Leicester even citing how many goals scored and conceded.
Yet another burnt out hack, that just loves to jump on a band wagon to hide their own lack of quality journalistic structure, discipline and consistency.
I'll help him out play 3 in the middle as we did against Chelsea and problem is solved. In fact Martinez has a 100% win record playing 4-3-3. Now that is interesting, one out of one playing that formation.
