Set pieces

[Saint Domingo]

The excuse will be: “well he’s been dropped for Bernard so he can’t get a run of form”

Seen it already

It was a World Cup year. He hasn’t had a full 6 week pre season. He’s actually better on the left which is his natural position. Tosun isn’t good enough to bring Siggurdson into play. It’s Gueye/Gomes/Schneiderlin’s fault. Take your pick, it’s never just because he’s not very good. Silva will bench him for Bernard anyway so good times ahead.

But then we concede a set piece and zonal marking ruins it all.

Zonal marking only ruins it if the players can't implement the tactic correctly.

So yeah you're right.
