FAC Barnsley (H) - Monday 12th January

Crikey - just realised how soon this one was. Hope you don't mind me starting this one @The Nomad!

Obviously it's got to be a changed line up. I really hope we get Ramsey a chance to show if he's up to it

Mama; Kerkez VVD Gomez Ramsey; Nyoni Jones Szobo; Ngumoha Cheesy Frimpong

EPL Arsenal (A) 0-0 January 8th 20:00

Well - that was actually competitive.

Absolutely woeful and toothless up front and slow on the ball as usual but .....

Resilient in the first half and pretty much dominated in the midfield second half. I'd give us a 7/10 for that one

MOTM Arsenal (A) 0 - 0 - Momo’s POTS awards

Zero goals. Zero shots on target. One point.

Pick your top three.

Alisson

Calling all wools...

Heading home to see Dad in a few weeks, and, as usual, hoping to nip over for a game while I'm back... Probably the West Ham match, in late February.

Have any of you used those FB groups that seem to sell match tickets to people like us from out of town? There seems to be a couple of main lads, who buy multiple season tickets and then sell off single games to whomever needs each game. It seems legit, but I'm wondering if any of you lot have tried it / them, before sending money...

Cheers all,

Julian Nagelsmann

We all know we need a new manager. Julian Nagelsmann seem to be one we are looking at. Will most likely be available after the World Cup.


View: https://x.com/bayernspace/status/1993060801100571036?s=46




Julian Nagelsmann's coaching style is defined by tactical versatility, high-intensity pressing (Gegenpressing), role-driven attacks, and innovative use of technology, focusing on fluid formations (often 3-at-the-back) that prioritize quick, vertical progression and player movement over static possession, demanding high strategic intelligence and emotional connection with players. He excels at evolving tactics to suit his squad, using data and experimentation, and implementing complex pressing schemes like the "pendulum effect".

Key Characteristics:
  • Tactical Fluidity: Adapts formations (e.g., 3-4-3, 4-2-3-1, 5-4-1) and roles based on opposition, often switching between 3-at-the-back and 4-at-the-back systems.
  • High-Intensity & Pressing: Employs energetic, coordinated high pressing and gegenpressing to win the ball back quickly, often in wide areas or specific zones.
  • Role-Driven Attack: Focuses on players understanding specific roles and interactions rather than rigid structures, creating dynamic attacking patterns with quick forward passes and third-man runs.
  • Innovation & Data: Uses technology like giant video walls and drones for tactical feedback, constantly experimenting to improve training and performance.
  • Gegenpressing/Pendulum Effect: A unique pressing tactic where the team collapses on the ball carrier in one quadrant, limiting options while maintaining a stable defensive shape elsewhere.
  • Social Competence: Believes a significant portion (70%) of coaching is social intelligence, building strong relationships, and motivating players individually for shared belief in tactics.
  • Verticality: Aims to move the ball forward quickly to create chances, even if it means less possession, utilizing central passing lanes and combinations.
I like it!

EPL Arsenal (A) Thurs 8th January 20:00

Most miserable unbeaten run of all time put to the test at PGMOL backed Arsenal.

Slots coward tactics will inevitably be exposed. I'm not confident. I'm not even going to pick a lineup.
