He does that. But frankly releasing the ball quicker is not the only way to beat a defense. Sometimes you take them on like he is doing, like Maradona and Messi had done. It is a very important aspect of the game. In fact, that singular skill can be more effective than passing in breaking down a packed defense. Forget what the Euro books focus on. There are multiple ways to use space and to create one.
Moses to be honest is a huge problem for any defense. He can turn on a dime and in a split second. There was one turn he made in the last game that did not seem humanly possible and he left 3 opponents for dead. In my view, what is missing is using it to deadly effect deep in the box where the slightest touch should definitely lead to a pk. He has to begin to scare defenders with that.

Didn't Moses end the campaign of an Egyptian defender when he was replaced in the opening minutes in tne match against Egypt.Enugu II wrote: ↑Fri Jan 21, 2022 8:33 pmDonadoni

When Moses cut back the poor chap tried to react and hurt his ankles.

I'll take being naive over your being cleverly unrealistic.Scipio Africanus wrote: ↑Fri Jan 21, 2022 1:44 amI don't want to use the word "naive" to describe you, but you are really begging for it. A player who has his shirt tugged in the opponent's penalty area would have to be a colossal dunce not to fall down immediately.joao wrote: ↑Fri Jan 21, 2022 1:18 amHow can you make progress, when you are split between cheating and huddling your obstacles?Scipio Africanus wrote: ↑Thu Jan 20, 2022 6:09 pmAbeg told am.

[size=150]Faking being fouled is not a bright idea. [/size]It even takes away the player's focus and continuing progress.
Worse, like noted above, a strict referee would not tolerate that behavior, nor football fans.
Neymar and S. Americans like doing that rubbish, and they have been found out.
Even if you are fouled, maintain composure until the referee blows the whistle. I know it's too
complicated an idea for you to grasp.
After giving up a PK or two, the opponent will be afraid to even breathe on the player, allowing him to play football with a relaxed mind, leading to better football and more goals
Seems like you are advocating that the player(s) to be making the call for the referee.
Suppose the player, instead of continuing his play, chooses to fall down and the referee
does not blow the whistle, then what?
Hope you are not advocating same for the defenders, whereby they raise their hands calling
for an offside instead of making a play.
Come again, clever brains!

Re: Moses Simon should start falling down more in the box
Agreed. It’s very refreshing to see a forward take on players versus the “supposedly safe” pass around style that has been drummed into players in Europe. When a forward can mix both and have defenders constantly guessing whether he will dribble past them and shoot or whether he will draw several of them in and pass that is serious wahala for any defense to deal with. The key is to remain unpredictableEnugu II wrote: ↑Fri Jan 21, 2022 8:33 pmDonadoni

Re: Moses Simon should start falling down more in the box
Boom!! The word is unpredictability. It is really not effective to think that the only thing that works is a pass. Against a tight defense that option can fail woefully. The thing is unpredictability as you have mentioned here.donadoni wrote: ↑Fri Jan 21, 2022 9:52 pmAgreed.
