Thread: Is it me or are the Worzels a route 1 team

  1. #1

    Is it me or are the Worzels a route 1 team

    Highest scorers in the division from set pieces , watching them their game seems to be based around long throws and booming free kicks into the box for their 2 big centre halfs ?

    Nothing like the silky football Jurssy makes out.
    In fact they are more like the caricature he makes out for us than we are !

    They are top of the league for long balls.

    No, it's not just you. It's a statistical fact.

    Please see the 2nd goal in particular to highlight what a load of bollocks this is.
    Defend from Boro freekick in our half, attack swiftly involving passing amongst 6 City players before a pinpoint ball across from Flint for Paterson to make it 2-0.

    Possession stats 49 v 51 is a football match.

    31 v 69 and 37 v 63 - well that underlines what many opposition managers have said doesn’t it.

    Stats and facts back up our assertions that you are a long ball side, bitter managers back up your false accusations

    No it doesn't.

    In fact it has nothing to do with what 'many' opposition managers have said - either the admirers (many) or the whingers (few).

    I can't remember a single opposition manager making an issue out of possession stats.

    Personally I worry when we get over 50% - as we did for most of the first half against Norwich - as it means we are not playing to our strengths as a very good defensive side that can counter attack with skill, pace and strength - and convert a very high % of chances.

    Ask Jose Mourinho if he gives a **** about possession and passing.
    His side won 3-1 with 25 percent of the ball. They were outrageously good on the counter. Will they care if arsenal passes it and played pretty? Will they ****

    They couldn’t beat us anyway and ironically the Wurzels only beat us thanks to a long throw!!!!

    They play the most long balls in the league, and have the dirtiest player in the league in Marlon Pack. These are not opinions, these are facts.
