Fazzer 7 Posted 4 October 2023 Posted 4 October 2023 Enzo will have a plan on how to break these down.

Shamomoa Posted 4 October 2023 Posted 4 October 2023 surely someone has a working stream, ive tried loads and nothing usually easy when its on sky
Tom12345 Posted 4 October 2023 Posted 4 October 2023 (edited) Or be brave and go with two strikers: Nacho for Ndidi. Nacho tends to drop a bit deeper and can draw defenders to him while he can then make that killer pass to Vardy or to one of the wide men cutting in. Edited 4 October 2023 by Tom12345

Dare I say it, but in the final third, it's a bit reminiscent of last season...too slow and not clinical enough. I think the difference is last season we weren't facing a 8-2-0 type formation. Agree it's been a bit slow but I don't think it's fair to compare to last season where teams weren't parking the bus against us like this.
cityfanlee23 Posted 4 October 2023 Posted 4 October 2023 I think there are quite a few people giving too much credit to PNE so far tonight, make no mistake, most of us knew it would be like this where we have lots of possession and PNE sit back in their own box, but PNE have barely done anything, all they are doing is waiting a week for us to aimlessly put a ball into the box and mopping it up. It takes us 30+ seconds to get the ball from the right back to the left winger, and everytime we drag them out of position we give them a month to regroup. PNE are not playing that well, we are playing poorly, mainly in the tempo. If we continue to do what we are doing, but with a bit of urgency they will make a mistake. If we continue to play like this they will nick one. We are the problem here. 1
Dahnsouff Posted 4 October 2023 Posted 4 October 2023 Think we need to rotate where we have overloads, right side, left side, then centre and back again, as they are allowed to be too static in their defending and our Mavididi, back to KDH, to Wilf, repeat, is not asking many questions 2
Detroit Blues Posted 4 October 2023 Posted 4 October 2023 I know Coady is rusty, but i think he's the big reason we've struggled this half. He gave up the chance to Holmes, and he's been failing to break lines with his passes the way Vesty does. 1
oxtonfox Posted 4 October 2023 Posted 4 October 2023 This has a classic 0-1 feel about it. They'll score early second half and we wont be able to break them down. Frustrating..... 1
WigstonWanderer Posted 4 October 2023 Posted 4 October 2023 I wish we’d try to break quicker when their attacks break down. They’ve had the best chances so far. 1
wardyfox86 Posted 4 October 2023 Posted 4 October 2023 Bit of a nothing half against a side with zero ambition, but hey ho. Don't think we've seen enough to indicate we'll tire them out, time for some half time Enzo magic 2
Vacamion Posted 4 October 2023 Posted 4 October 2023 Wonder if Preston will get tired working so hard in defence. I think that is what Enzo is banking on. 1
southfox66 Posted 4 October 2023 Posted 4 October 2023 I'm glad I'm not the only one that thought we made heavy weather of the first half, we seem to get into good positions in final third then we just slow up completely, breaking the momentum of the whole move ?
The Guvnor Posted 4 October 2023 Posted 4 October 2023 The couple of half decent chances we have had is when we have moved the ball at pace in the final third. Generally far too pedestrian in attack and poor movement off the ball. 2
coolhandfox Posted 4 October 2023 Posted 4 October 2023 Preston set up like a league 2 team in the cup.

Scotch Posted 4 October 2023 Posted 4 October 2023 (edited) Again, people need to have a bit of patience. When you play like we do, you don't look to win the game early, you look to tire the opposition to win it late. Defending like they are takes a lot physically and mentally. The more they do that, the harder it gets later on. A bit like a UFC fighter kicking the legs of his opponent early in the fight, your not going to win by doing it but it makes it tough as the fight goes on. As long as we don't concede first, we will win this game. If they score on the break before we do, we could be in trouble. Edited 4 October 2023 by Scotch 2
Claudio Fannieri Posted 4 October 2023 Posted 4 October 2023 Possibly the poorest 45 minutes of the season so far, this is partly due to PNE being so well drilled and disciplined however got to hope we grind them down in the 2nd half. So far lacking quality and a cutting edge in the final 3rd. 1
Drink Water Posted 4 October 2023 Posted 4 October 2023 75% possession in 45 minutes and only 3 shots? Our win record has definitely been a distraction from our lack of creativity and finishing capabilities.
Popular Post SecretPro Posted 4 October 2023 Popular Post Posted 4 October 2023 (edited) Why are people bedwetting all over this thread. Trust the system. If you changed everything every time someone came to the KP and parked the bus then we wouldn't have a system! People claiming Emzos system doesn't work really need to learn to breath.

st albans fox Posted 4 October 2023 Posted 4 October 2023 Ricky is pretty much static in midfield all the time and therefore way too easy to pick up. hamza isn’t a dynamic forward moving player either so I’m not sure how we get around this problem tonight
