Pace, tempo and pressing

[Deleted member 28206]

We could have the best passers of the ball on the planet in the middle of the pitch, but if we insist on playing dullards like Siggurdson, Richarlison and DCL who have zero movement in them, we may as we be passing to training cones.

Granted pep and klopp have better players, but they are also at peak physical condition aswell when they play

Even players like gundogan, Silva, Henderson fabinho, play at a high tempo when it clearly isn't in their natural game.

Maybe worth considering looking how these teams train.

Very true about pep and klopp. Also helps that when you press and win it you dont lose it straight away again. That pressing game can destroy teams in the last 20 mins. Thats when you can get picked off.
