[Albion] Tomas Frank on tomorrow

[Stat Brother]

I literally don't understand what you're on about. The entire strategy of RdZ is to draw the press high up the pitch, and then to break through that rapidly, ideally through getting on the ball in the RdZ 'promised land'. And you're saying that teams playing the high press isn't Albion-friendly. Think you're on your own on that front, but happy to be proved wrong.

I'm probably wrong but I think CW might mean, if a team fully commits to pressing high while praying it's remaining defenders can hold out a misfiring Albion they're in with a chance - a theory not without merit.

Teams don't press everyone, which makes any pressing pointless, as the player 'free' controls the game.

RDZ will get found out, next season, it would be blooming entertaining if the above were to be the key.

Don’t agree personally. That was a freak one off of complete luck!

Have you been under a rock the last few years or so?

Catenaccio ?

To be fair catenaccio is a very very rigid system that's gone out of use, low blocks nowadays are more flexible in defense and quick in counterattacking. I think a top team with one of Conte's, or Juve's, or Atletico's low blocks could be very hard for you compared to a top team that presses high and wants a lot of possession.
