We've probably conceded the most too.

As they say in America, defense wins championships, offense wins games/fans.

Number of goals conceded could be better but ain’t that bad. 26 across whole season so far. Still impressive considering circumstances and average age of team.


Damn…Liverpool only conceded 1 goal so far in CL. Van Dijk cooking.

There's a reason they say that in US out of all countries

What eventually matters is just the goal difference. Who cares if you concede goals when you outscore your opponent by a wide margin at the end

Bayern won the sextuple with this game system, so saying it can't win you trophies is a little paradoxical. Surely different circumstances with all the covid shit, but you can't claim it wasn't about how Bayern played football at all. They were insane.

Bayern sextuple has a massive * beside it.

The WC showed his system isn't as great as some thought.

Like I posted a few pages back only 1 teams has won la Liga in the past 10 years while conceding 40 goals, which looks like the amount we are about to concede in the league, and they won it by just 3 points.

Nothing to do with US, defense wins championships period.

Not defensive football, but Defense, he gotta tighten that shit up, period.

Surely he should fix it but there's a question mark of how possible it is without reducing the offensive output, which is the literal engine of his system.

If you concede 40 goals and score well above a hundred which is also what we're projected to score that pretty much offsets. Concede more and score more is same shit like concede less and score less.

In the matches we lost valuable points in, we obviously didn't manage to score enough to win the games. It matters a lot how the scored goals and conceded goals are distributed.

Yea. So attack was the problem. Against Sociedad for example we didn't have a single shot on goal, iirc (or maybe just 1). Robbed of one goal though, but still. As long as the attack is going strong defence should not be much of a problem. In those matches without Lamine; lack of creativity, heavy touches and poor ball control. Only Raphinha was decent in our front 4. Against Betis too, if we could do better to finish some of the chances in first half it would be a one-way street in the second.

Would like to see more vertical play. We started off the season playing long, direct and quick passes into space in behind. Lately its been more sideways and pedestrian.

Against Dortmund Raphinha kept making runs in behind but no one would pick him out.
