Welcome to debriefingSky Sports column in it Adam is a house A mixture of data and opinion is used to think about some of the main stories of the latest Premier League matches. this week:
Tottenham defense offers a tactical
🟦 Gundogan finds its shape in Man City
Malin explains his point of view on Aston Villa
“It is not as if the players are doing it on purpose,” said Angkoglu, after his team’s 4-2 defeated wolves. “I may be more frustrated if something we did from a tactical or organizational perspective, but they are individual mistakes.”
Some of Tottenham’s mistakes in Molinox were inappropriate. The uncertainty in Guglielmo Vicario was almost comic. Christian Romero seems to run behind the ball for the third goal of Wolfes. Lucas Bergval greatly surrendered to Matheus Cunha ranked fourth.
According to OPTA, it is the mistakes in the second half that were recorded as errors that lead to goals – the first time in the year that Spears has made a lot in the Premier League match. But to reject this as just a deviation that will be a little bit on postecoglou.
His team looked wide open all the time, is completely unable to deal with anything air wolves because the home side manipulated any knockout. Every Tottenham defender looked isolated, very large gaps, spaces at the back and in the front. It was chaos.
The opposite postecoglou number, Vitor Pereira, knows it well. The husband went for the first time face to face in the AFC Champions League, and he won the trade with both teams when Busquoglu was in Japan and Pereira was in China. The latter was a plan for him.
Pereira asks about this at the press conference after that, whether he himself is considered Tottenham’s many mistakes like only Individual errors or moments that his team forced, gave a lit answer. “Football is a strategy,” explained.
“When we feel that the block is higher because they want to press us – and I know they want to press the corridor – the spaces are in the back, it was. This means that at that moment, a long ball, then it is ready and ready for the second ball. This is what we did in training, to prepare the team for this moment.
“After that, if you encounter a team hitting a long ball and winning the second ball once and creating problems, twice and creating problems, three times and creating problems, next time, the line will be afraid to go and give up a large space in the back.
“This means that we started getting some spaces between the lines. We created these spaces between the lines and when we create these spaces between the lines, we can play.
“But before that, it was difficult. It was difficult because they are a strong team.”
Tottenham may be a strong aspect, but the important point is that this is not a calamity. The expected blind data shows that only the lower three give up more opportunities. They are the only team at the six bottom, they give up less than the statistics that they should have done.
With three defenders of the first option on the bench in the wolves, there was some mitigation. Postecoglou focus on Eintracht Frankfurt on Thursday. But these defensive weaknesses were a feature of their season. The audit will only last.
Find Gundogan Form again
Pep Guardiola was asked after Manchester City 5-2 victory over Crystal Palace, whether James Makati could be one to help fill the huge void that Kevin de Bruyne will leave. The city coach was keen not to exercise such a great pressure on any individual.
But this may be the second coming of the other veteran city legend that can help reduce the loss of De Bruyne. It was a pleasure to be there to see the great Belgian performance, but there were also hints that Elkai Jongan had found his shape again.
DERUYNE Make things happen but Gundogan, which plays on the left channel, was the perfect chips. He completed 68 passes of 70 passes, and it was 97.1 percent better than any start on the field on the field. Guardiola loved what he had seen from him for a while.
Guardiola said: “Gundo from Leesester, Gundo of Bournemouth, Gundo since today is Gundo, which I remember when we won the trilogy and quadruple.” “His pace, his defensive intelligence, how he arrives. Now, his presence with us is enormous.”
Gundogan was talking about the team when he recently said that he saw a “specific change” – he improved in the city’s position, and showed more aggression without the ball. Guardiola agrees with this evaluation and is believed to help Gundogan now also.
He explained: “As one team, we could not help him, because you or you or you were not related to you or you. Everyone was below, it was below, because the team was not good. When the team plays well, individuals rise. Without that, all football that you cannot do.”
Before Christmas, City won one of 11 games started by Gundogan. Since Christmas, they lost only once in its 13th beginnings – and that defeat was far from Real Madrid. Perhaps Germany’s international disappearance reports may have been largely exaggerated.
He is 35 years old in October, but he is expected to stay next season, and his contract has started. With two successful drops against Palace, the old skills that carry the ball also, perhaps there is still a role in this great city.
Malin’s great effect off the bench for the villa
Speaking to Donniel Malin shortly after his signature with Aston Villa, he made his plans. And he told Sky Sports. “What I must do is score goals and is important for the team.”
Malin does so completely. His goal against Southampton on Saturday was the third in three consecutive games in the competition and was significantly similar to his first blow against Brighton. It was also an evil effort on the angle that was struck in the distant angle.
Inaccurately, the Dutchman has the best strike in the Premier League this season, with a better average of a goal per 90 minutes so far. It is not a great coincidence that he got the largest number of shots on the target per 90 minutes as well. Small sample size. Great effect.
Of course, there is a big game that is against Paris Saint -Germain on Tuesday evening, which is not available for it. The disappointment of his hope should not be registered in the Champions League huge, but it interacts with it in the right way.
Malin’s future looks in the long term in a bright villa. It is the alternative to Musa Deapi, who need it in the summer, and it is an upgrade on Lyon Billy on this right wing. UNai Emery has turned into Morgan Rogers there but must be seduced with confidence in MALEN with more minutes.
Currently, it is the villa of the bench finish – just what is required after the JHON Duran loss in the winter window. With more goals than starting, Malin has also become fans as well. He fulfills this ambition to score goals and is important for his team.
