Bryn Posted 9 September 2017 Posted 9 September 2017 Where does it say in the rules that a drop ball can't be contested?

Riyad and Gray can go up against the wide CBs and our full backs can focus on the wide players for Chelsea with some help from the CM. Makes sense Don't need one no, but you can play with one. just allow the central player to free roam forward.

We switched effectively to a 4-5-1. I agree that we needed a third midfielder on the pitch but with King as option, I'd rather have had Nacho instead of Gray.

Bryn Posted 9 September 2017 Posted 9 September 2017 From a Fifa rules page online (http://www.fifa.com/mm/document/afdeveloping/refereeing/law_8_the_start_and_restart_of_play_en_47396.pdf) Dropped Ball "Any player may challenge for the ball, including the goalkeeper. There is no minimum or maximum number of players required to take part in a dropped ball. The referee cannot decide who may or may not take part in a dropped ball".
Vacamion Posted 9 September 2017 Posted 9 September 2017 Come on, how epic would a second City goal be?

Never knew that; how epic would a 6 man drop ball be?

I agree that we needed a third midfielder on the pitch but with King as option, I'd rather have had Nacho instead of Gray. Mahrez and Gray are what make it 433, not King. King is always in midfield regardless of 433 or 451. Nacho instead of Gray would have made our team all wonky. Unless you mean Nacho for Slim was the only sub to keep the 442/4411?
Merging Cultures Posted 9 September 2017 Posted 9 September 2017 Nacho on for James? Go back to 4-4-2?

Not if there is always one holding and the the rotation work. Effective 433 is about stretching their back line. Moot point now as we are back to 442!
