Spain v England - Sun 14th July, 20:00 | Euro 2024 Final
- Thread starter MCFC1993
- Start date
Pickford is a great keeper but his distribution is very poor. It only takes a few games watch City to understand why Pep feels this is so important. Hoof the ball to Spain, they have the possession, this is minutes and opportunities lost to score for us. They turn possession into attack, gain corners, have more chances to score. We have no possession. They din't score - Pickford gives it back to them. Repeat possession and chances for them - lost minutes for us. We've wasted a lot of time giving them possession from Keeper.
This is the managers responsibility to tell him this is not your strength, pass it to a Def- Def to Mid - more possession for us - less chances for them - leads to attack from Mid - more chances to score. It's simple stuff but I feel watching City every week makes this stuff seem simple.

how the fuck is dickford under pressure from a goal kick, wev'e got enough players to play out but he just waves everyone forward and launches itHe only does that when he feels under pressure. If we’d have had Rodri instead of Rice, we’d be passing out every time. (Well, maybe not with Pickford, but significantly less!)
Do you not think this is under instruction from the manager? I do. Either that or one of two things; he's either ignoring manager's instructions or the manager isn't giving him any.Pickford is a great keeper but his distribution is very poor.

Soccer Aid would be a good gig.Southgate seems like a good bloke, there’s a multitude of jobs out there for him but not managing some the best players in England.
