No idea what happened there unless Taylor called for an advantage there
There is a monumental difference though between working under a Sporting Director and alongside one. I would say Guardiola, Arteta, Klopp, Emery, Ange, Ten Hag, Howe etc work alongside DoF their DoF's.
For me that is changing with Slot. Rodgers and Klopp had the final say on transfers. The new structure changes that for me. That is the massive difference.
Can anyone somehow explain why the referee blew when Gakpo was about to put the ball into the net?No idea what happened there unless Taylor called for an advantage there
Did the referee wave for an advantage then changed his mind when he thought the keeper wasn’t fit to play on? That’s about as close I can get to a plausible answer. However there was no foul and it looks like the keeper threw the ball down and then stopped to pull up his socks. I’d love to hear a decent answer as I am completely stumped and it just looks like the referee made it up on the sport.
I don't know, I think the fact that we allowed Bowen to cross uncontested from within our penalty area under no pressure into a 2 v 2 in our box was the bigger issue, but what do I know?It was also a 25% chance that was given up. Antonio shot was really good
Perhaps if the five players standing around watching the cross come in had intervened earlier, we wouldn't be relying on our CB's to win every duel against Michael Antonio to keep a clean sheet.
It's almost as if that goal had been coming for five minutes before-hand, via approaches we've seen repeated many times this season or something.
Liverpool in the 70's and 80's, Ferguson in the 90's and 00's, Wenger in the 00's have all been the dominant teams with the manager having a huge amount of power. Guardiola has dominated recently with a huge amount of power. Arsenal have flourished since under Arteta who has a lot of power.Surely this is also the flaw in the all powerful manager model? For all their success, United have spent a huge amount of money and time trying to find the the next Busby or the next Ferguson. 18 of their 20 league titles and all their European Cups have been won by just 2 managers! Everything goes tits up when the glorious reign comes to an end. No continuity.
The biggest turnaround in the Premier League has been Aston Villa with Emery bringing in his own DoF in Monchi and having a huge amount of power. Our best seasons over the last couple of decades have been when the likes of Benitez and Klopp had huge amounts of power.
No one in this League has ever had a transformative SD or DoF who has changed things and turned their team into the dominant force.
Solid, not brilliant, but solid.Wow! They get more and more smalltime every season.
Their shower are as thick and shite as ever. Singing Everton’s name, is just about as dickheadish, as you can get.
