Sometimes our defending really ***** me off. Players just standing goal side without any interest in where the attackers are.
Their 1st goal tonight, we have a defender standing level with the near post and a defender standing level with the far post. Neither of them moving or doing anything useful. Also, neither of them slightly concerned about the top class striker standing on the penalty spot in miles of space. No thoughts about marking him.
It’s not just us, but we’re really bad at it. Is it the players being bad or is this actually what they are coached to do?
