What is this one doing in Eagle's nest?

STOP GIVING THESE TREES FREE SET PIECES AND CORNERS
If they are that afraid of the incoming corner kicks, can they not place a man in front of the corner kick taker just to obscure his view and distract him and if the kick is low enough, he may even head it away?
Your answer pls?

Re: Tunisia 1 vs 2 England
Agree on the silly FKs but I don't think African team concede up to 10 CKs or significantly above average. Some Cks are just under normal play. We just for an inexplicable reason can't defend them. Of the 4 African teams to play so faroloye wrote:I think we have to look at set pieces defending from another angle what is the probability of European teams conceding against African teams if they have to concede 10 corner kicks?
We need to address the stupidity of conceding stupid free kicks and corners
Egypt conceded 5 CKs
Morocco - 2 CKs
Nigeria - 6 CKs conceded while we took 5 cks with nothing to show for it.
Tunisia today conceded 7 CKs to England.
for context, Panama conceded 9, South Korea 6, and Mexico 8 Cks but someone how managed to not give up a goal via CK. Switz conceded 7 CKs to Brazil. Peru conceded about 9 Cks. Iceland conceded 10 but then again they are 6ft+
Lampard: 101 goals and counting.......

Liverpool, European Champions 2005.
We watched this very boring video, 500 times, of Sacchi doing defensive drills, using sticks and without the ball, with Maldini, Baresi and Albertini. We used to think before then that if the other players are better, you have to lose. After that we learned anything is possible – you can beat better teams by using tactics." Jurgen Klopp

Re: Tunisia 1 vs 2 England
That defender dribbling and conceding a corner was a horror show. I thought exactly what many of you did...here we go with a set piece.
And sure enough, Kane, of all people, is on the receiving end right in front of the net.
I truly was rooting for Tunisia in this one.
Jesus Christ. I'm still cringing.

Re: Tunisia 1 vs 2 England
The annoying thing is ....the other african teams and even possibly the same tunisia will not learn from this and some silly defenders will do same or similar in the next few games..mate wrote:That defender dribbling and conceding a corner was a horror show.

It boogles my mind that a tunisian defender did not learn from Nigeria's mistakes etc !!
Remember Iceland against Argentina ? The way they booted out the ball was embarrassing but effective, no nonsense passing or dribbling in front of Messi !!

Nna, he's our biggest problem although not the only one. But he's the source. He's downplayed Nigeria's chances, talked about us coming to the WC to "learn" and spoken how we're not expected to qualify. He thinks he's managing Gabon - he needs a reality check.
Rohr thinks he's managing a minnow. Time for him to go, he's not a good cultural fit.

He's clearly not a modern manager. To see Nigeria constantly kick the ball upfield was just disheartening...
In 2019!!! And u see small boy managers implementing modern systems...

Re: Tunisia 1 vs 2 England
It was breathtakingly clueless. Whilst he's moved the team forward in off-field organisation and preparedness, his tactical input can be too variable. We can do much better than Rohr....
