Thread | Defending corners
at 17:51 6 Oct 2018
Crazy how we defend with 11; put a player in the centre circle and he will generally tie up 2 of the opposition. Only very rarely in the last 20 years have we employed this tactic.
One game that we employed this tactic was the awesome PL game against West Brom when we were 3-0 up at HT.
No outlet today when we headed the corner out and Ipswich were able to attack us again. |
