Here is an idea, for set pieces, particularly with big danger men, why not depart from zonal marking?

how is the zonal marking supposed to work in that situation? Surely even in a zonal system Distin should slide to the unmarked man, especially when he happens to be their most dangerous player.

There's no way zonal marking is that flawed as a strategy, we have to be executing it incorrectly
 


I was then about to type at 3-0 we really should make some subs, we're home and safe now.

Obviously i forgot that we'd forget how to defend, that was disgraceful defending when we knew all about him, absolutely disgraceful from a team of professional Premier league players to leave him unmarked and let him run at the ball. Just like we did Kamara on Sat.

Unbelievable. Honestly, even if we win thats infuriating me because it was so bad and put us under pressure when we should be comfortable.

we're still home and safe mate - no matter how bad our defence is oldham won't get 3 past us, we're not liverpool ffs
