@Jon_Mackenzie @Slasherrrr I get the point about dropping the FBs or going 3diamond
For me it’s just that when those tweaks happen before City even press to stop the wingers jumping inside, Pep has already shaped the phase.
At that point the diamond isn’t giving the wide access needed to avoid being boxed.

@WBellhem @Slasherrrr Ftr this is exactly the solution that Guardiola found against this approach at the beginning of the 2024/25 season. You can also form the diamond through inverting a FB and going 3diamond3 if you want.

Not sure this works with Raya as, surely, he can hit this chap or go longer into the gaps behind if, say, the full-backs push on. Can the respective midfielder pull wide? Then there is a MF on his own in the middle. Feels like a man short somewhere. Hmmm… 🤔

Notice how Pep knew that Arsenals defenders have no clue what to do with the ball… City players don’t press the Arsenal backline

@Jon_Mackenzie @Slasherrrr Think the diamond just plays into what Pep wanted. Fewer wide exits, so Man City can lock the first phase with their wingers jumping inside while the 8s cover the pivots, leaving no clean out-ball.

@Slasherrrr with a diamond so that you're not wasting a pivot and with wide midfielders forcing the oppo midfield two to stretch.

Jag fick en gång laktosfri grädde istället för vanlig till jordgubbar ute i Skärgården. Hade extra frågat om det var riktig grädde för annars hade jag hellre tagit en bit ost.
Trodde jag fått mellangrädde av den fadda smaken att döma och jag var så rasande hela dagen att jag förstörde skärgårsutflykten för mina medföljande vänner.
Hängde ut restaurangen på Twitter när jag kom hem och alla mina följare blev helsura - på mig …
Sån jäkla tur att jag inte är SVT-journalist.

@GustenDahlin Bodö vann med 3-0 igår därför slog du spelmarknaden😀

@WBellhem I just detta dubbelmöte ser det väl hyfsat ut för att göra just det?

I’m sorry no sport in the world comes close to the excitement, quality and entertainment in this 10 minute clip.
Top 2 best players playing at this level after 5 hours….Tennis is the best sport in the world.
And sorry, Driving toy cars ain’t real sport

Tennis and F1 are sports for people who do not like sports

@fpl_thomas__ Yeah you'd assume so, he was already clear optimal captain. If only I could get a default xMin bump for the xMin ranks because 76 seems unfair 😅

Gameweek 29 Review ✅
Points: 78
Rank: 9,616 → 4,542 (+53%)
This week I sold Haaland for Salah and captained him. Why? I’m an analytical manager, his underlying data is strong and he has plenty of routes to points. I also knew I’d be in the vast minority making that move because most people don’t want to take such a big bet, even when it’s +EV, so it was a play with +EV and +Risk.
Overall this season I haven’t been making high risk plays, but I liked this one. Salah was the best captain this week and next, especially considering Haaland’s fixture is sandwiched between two UCL games against Madrid. I have the rare opportunity to achieve another top 500, so I went for it.

@WBellhem Så man får inte fundera på sitt lag och sina byten innan presskonferenserna? Då är man inkompetent😂😂
Svenska

Osäker till GW29 som är om några dagar bara.
Sedan är det över en vecka till GW30, kanske kan vara tillgänglig då. Men glöm inte att GW30 mot West Ham ligger inklämd mellan dubbelmötet mot Real Madrid👀
Förmodad blank i GW31.
SÄLJ! #FPL
City Xtra@City_Xtra
Pep Guardiola says he 'doesn't know' when Erling Haaland will return to #ManCity action.

@WBellhem Tveksamt att den presskonferensen kommer ge oss några svar
Svenska

@FPLDalahast1 Det är ingen idé att tänka på ditt FPL lag innan nästa omgångs presskonferenser alls.
