“Rangnick will introduce vertical balls as part of his philosophy”.
It‘s not that revolutionary, they’re called long balls over here.
Love it!
That style of football has been derided and dismissed over here for the last decade as a derivative Pulis/Allardyce/Warnock/Ferguson kick and rush, prehistoric, long ball throw back to simpler, less cultured times - but now Ragnick is wittering on about the exact same tired old routine (with a subtle rebrand as ‘vertical balls’), it’s suddenly become the very pinnacle of fresh, bold, brave, innovative thinking in the game.
The media over here are fucking pathetic - an embarrassment to themselves!
