High line exposed with 2 quick passes and a winger capable of sprinting, as opposed to Mobile Scootering.

Incredible if this is a pen. Ball was almost out of play.



High line with a high press.

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

Look at arrogance. "When did Poland become this poor?" Because they are being ran raggard by Saudi Arabia. Your myopia and inability to see past your nose, means that you will always ask the wrong questions. When did Saudi get this good? What did Renard do over the last few to drill this Saudi team like this? etc etc... but continue. :oops:

Issues. Far from ignorance of the opposition, was very much the same in the first game vs the Mexicans. Once upon a time, if nothing else, the Poles were grafters. Remember watching Citko and co going blow for blow with Pearce and posse. Decent scrappers.

Yes the Saudis have pressed well, but to outwork a Polak, once upon a time an impossibility. Ask Trev and Kev on the building site. Fantastic ethic from the Saudis but when did the Poles become dole queue dossers.

Saudi needs to go for a draw and let Poland and Argentina sweat it out. I believe Argentina will nick one against Mexico unless Ochoa plays out of his mind.

Saudi shooting too wildly
We have been brainwashed by the Premier League that it's the best in the world. Nonsense. It's the best brand
Roy Keane: ITV 02/25/14

He says that we are currently "brainwashed" into believing that the Premier League is the best competition in the world, and that we are now a long way off dominating the Champions League again.
Gary Neville: Mirror: 12/23/14

I think Spain’s by far the best league.

Firmly pulled from the deepest reaches of the imagination. Poland is the European version of Nigeria in football. Zero off the ball movement. Just dump the ball forward and hope. Watching them is worse than watching paint dry. They have been like this in the last 4 World Cups they have played in.

You can see how well coached and drilled the Saudis are. They are so desperately lacking that final killer ball as of yet

Must be that damn chip in the ball. :mrgreen: I have noticed the increased bird killing frequency at this WC. That ball just cannot stay down.

The Poles are really dangerous on the counter.

@Scip, 16 hours on the building site, 12 hour stretches on the HGVs, no break. Ewa and Agnieska have domestic services on lockdown. Graft! 40 quid, 3 storeys, top to bottom, floors scrubbed to the bone marrow. Work rate.

Self selecting population. The same way Indians and Nigerians in the USA want everyone to think they are geniuses because they are degree collectors, meanwhile a huge chunk(no pun intended) of their citizens back home defecate in public.

@Scip, 3 words, “you have work?”. Nondescript. The skill required irrelevant. Service rendered. Dirt cheap. Odd jobs for the lunch break.

Defecate in public, Nigerians, in 2022, impossible.

I said it. Saudis used up a century's worth of luck against Argieland. How did that Saudi shot not go in?
