hate the way some refs are allergic to giving out yellow cards within the first half hour

Not exactly news but our set piece defending is atrocious
Whats annoyed me lately is Ive yet to see a goal we concede from a set piece where the oppositions biggest threat from a high ball, ie Murray today or Troy Deeney, Pogba etc, are picked up by our centerbacks. The job seems to be given to lightweights like Rose, Winks, Moura etc. Fkin ridiculous. Its like a cop out from the cbs, I'll take an easy one.

Gonna be a long day. Brighton keeper not been worked at all in nearly 30mins. Sideways non threatening possesion.
Kane needs to be in the fkin box and Moura passing the ball to him not the other way around. Its like players havent been told get thw fkin ball to Kane in the box, not that they should need telling. Bloody obvious.

Eriksen knitting it together well. Just the wrong option in that final 3rd.

Only way we’re going to penetrate this double line is with movement and overlaps - if they’re doubling or tripling on us we need to exploit the inevitable gaps that style of defending creates.

Can we header it vaguely in the direction of a teammate rather than directly to the opposition? Ta

Eriksen loses nearly all the 50:50's.
That's because Eriksen's never been in a 50:50 challenge. If it's a loose ball he is at a disadvantage, never 50:50. But with no backup/alternative creativity I prefer him not taking a knock.
