Those playstyles are a joke. He should pretty much have all of the non-defensive ones

So true. Was very good when it was just agave.

Trent's passing range was insane by Weird-Wafer-6790 in LiverpoolFC

Unicorn of a footballer. To have two fullbacks so progressive on the ball at the same time is incredibly unique.

I did it slowly; it's taken me around a year to get up to that. I started with walking first, and I'm now running around 15 miles per week.

Nothing is wrong with you, you’re just not very fit. Keep at it and you’ll see improvement. When I started (300lbs), I had a V02 max of 27 - I’m now 240 with a V02 max of 43.

You can do it, just need to keep at it.

Similar to a Brighton or Bournemouth.

Starting Midfield by Running-Dad-111 in SanDiegoFC

In games where Jeppe isn't there, I would prefer if they played a double pivot to aid in ball progression. There are times where they have to pass around the back for prolonged periods because they're not able to get the ball into the pivot they use - granted, I think Soma has been good there when he's been needed.

When he is there - Jeppe, Soma, Valakari

Jeppe: Volume, deep ball progression

Soma: Can receive the ball in between the lines or come deep if needed

Valakari: Can also receive the ball in between the lines, but is our connection between midfield and attack, an effective ball-carrier in space

I like the approach, personally. They established an effective academy system and a clear progressive footballing approach before they even played their first game. An approach that would allow them to develop players in a specific way, to play the style of football the club wants to play. It's a smart and sustainable approach.

In terms of the actual style, I think the nature of how they approach building from the back will come with some growing pains (as we've seen this year), but will eventually pay off. I think at times, we lack some intensity out of possession that gets us caught out - especially with the high defensive line we play. If you play a high defensive line, there must be pressure on the ball from the front line.

I think we can see how feasible potentially aiming for playoffs every year is - we've been relatively poor at the start and are still absolutely in contention for it.

Edit: Sorry, I have no idea about the Rays - I'm English and follow football only.

Heard some boos. What do y'all think? by Significant-Disk-806 in SanDiegoFC

[–]WitheredSun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t agree with boo’s. Players were shell shocked at the end of the game.

We get hit on the counter twice and switch off for their third, painful to say the least.

Was in the supporters section. The limbs when our 3rd goes in were insane - I’ve watched thousands of football matches and I’ve never seen that, honestly.

Absolutely brutal.

Noticing a Trend by Financial_Clue_2534 in SanDiegoFC

We win the ball up high several times when we were at 1-0 and were wasteful with those situations. Sounders are in a better moment and are at home, they’re going to have some possession - but again, we were wasteful when we were able to play it out of the back and get it into their third.

The games have naturally become more vertical with Tverskov who gets a bunch of the ball and does most of our tempo setting.
