Once the ball is on the edge of the box and a back 8 are in place it is quite difficult for the centre forward to find any room. He needs runners either side of him to move defenders around, or to run into space he has created.Originally Posted by redgunamo
He's a striker, supposedly a world class one. His job is to ensure there's no such thing as "quite heavily marked" so far as he is concerned
Perhaps Thierry has been gone so long that all our players have forgotten that.
For example, I was stunned he didnt bring on Bellerin earlier in the second half, after around 60 minutes. We were crying out for something like that andChambers was finding space but not using it properly.
We need to look at a very different type of player in place of Iwobi. Someone who isnt Ozil and who definitely isnt Iwobi.
