Patience

The honourable thing for the Egyptian camp to do now, would be to send Mo back to Liverpool today with a big pat on his back

PS I don't mean the wardrobe man on his back.

Kerkez is totally one-footed, cannot for his life make an angled pass into the field with his right.
So, him inverting or taking part in build up, makes him an easy target for opposition press.
Why we don't sign someone who can at least use his right is a bit odd. It is very limiting.

You don't want your opponents to know do you?

Perhaps they do know and that's why they have countered it three times in eight games.

In which case we need Slot part deux. Then it'll be unknown for a spell and he'll be good again.

I have no idea why I'm rambling.

They have countered it more than three times in eight games. We made our individual quality count in the other games. This extends to games in the final third of the previous season also.

Do you think the status quo will remain or might we improve or decline further?

It's always worse with the left footers isn't it? Riise, Berger, Robbo. Turning circles of oil tankers to get it onto their left peg. What's the fucking prob?

I am generally an optimist. Slot definitely is a capable manager. We should improve.

they are just exclusive, and don't have to work on their other foot.
always get into the team anyway

Shanks famously didn't trust left-footed keepers. He had a theory that their balance was generally poorer.

I think it’s weird watching a left footer take a pen. Despite seeing Mo take so many.

Wonder why he signed Ray Clemence?

 

[Judge Jules]

Clem was actually right-footed so Shanks wasn't worried about his balance, but did a lot of work with his left and became more or less ambipedal. We often worked on improving individual players' weaker feet in those days. Stevie Heighway for example was very left-footed when he first got into the side, but worked so hard on using his right that he ended up taking dead ball kicks with it.

Clem must've worked very hard. Always kicked out using his left foot as I recall. I don't if true but I was told he started as a left back before moving into goal at 15?

In line with thread he must've had endless patience getting his left as strong as it was.
