Early morning thoughts
As I said last week, I rewatched the Leverkusen first leg and have a lot of thoughts. Here were some of my key findings from the game:
- At Leverkusen GKs, Mazza, their nominal LW, moves laterally across the pitch, which occupies our RB. This leaves the entire channel free for Grimaldo to attack. They nearly caught us out here in the second half. Our RW must remain alert!
- Their pivot players are constantly moving in settled possession; one of the two usually steps outside the block. This is to decouple our M2M pressure.
- Tapsoba on the left hand side is right footed. Need to watch out for his passes that enter inside the block.
- Their nominal 5-2-3 shape sees their RWB jump high as we funnel the ball towards our LHS. Regularly saw him jumping all the way to Hincapie. I’d like to see Calafiori start as I feel he will be better equipped to handle this.
- When they are defending within the middle of the pitch, their pivot players don’t consistently jump out. Their LW however, Mazza, does as we play through our RHS. We can take advantage of this by overloading the ball side pivot player to allow us to access the half space, before feeding our RW for a 1v1. This is what we did in the second half with Madueke. Eze’s involvement on the RHS helped us overload the ball side pivot player.
- That young lad up front looks flipping good. He can drop in and spin in behind!

So @Arsenal wanted to charge me £274 for my 3 seats for the Leverkusen game, now add qtrs and semis to that IF we get there, thats a total of £822 my 3 seats over 3 games. So that £400 short of one full season ticket. That is just fucking greedy of Arsenal you should be ashamed

@HarryStebbings No time for marathons whilst another VC is deep in 9-9-7

17 years ago my mother was diagnosed with MS. She was told she would be in a wheelchair within 5 years.
Today, she walks a marathon with me every Sunday (see today’s below), is the world’s best grandmother and is a professional Pilates instructor.
So two reminders for you today:
1. You are so much more capable than even you think. Do not give up. You got this.
2. Call your parents, today. One day, you won’t have the luxury and at that moment there is nothing you wouldn’t do to have the chance to speak to them again.
To all the mothers out there. Not all heroes wear capes but you are our heroes!

Before yesterday's trip to Spurs, Viktor Gyokeres averaged 24 touches and seven successful passes per game in the Premier League. Against Spurs, he had 42 touches and completed 18 passes. Enormous improvements in his all-round game. #AFC

BREAKING: 🚨 Ben of Ben & Jerry’s says Unilever has STOPPED Ben & Jerry’s from creating a flavor for Palestine
So he’s doing it himself! He’s asking the public to name the flavor, suggest ingredients and even design packaging!
Bravo @YoBenCohen ✊🏼👏🏼

By the age of 18, you have spent 92% of the time you will do with your parents.
One day they will be gone and you will regret not cherishing every moment with them.
I decided to change that. Every Saturday from 7AM to 1:30PM me and my mother walk a marathon. It is the best time of my week.
This week I asked my mother five questions. I recommend you do the same:
1. If you could relive one day with me, which day would you choose?
2. Were there any occasions I made you cry and didn’t apologise?
3. When did I make you most proud and are you proud of the person I have become?
4. If you could craft my future, what would it look like?
5. What advice would you give to me for when I become a parent?
Ask these questions. Your relationship will change forever after these. ❤️

I would like to put it on record that it wasn’t my idea to develop our family home, personally I had other plans. But, someone who can’t be named for legal and safety reasons (the Mrs) said she wanted a new house, so I said what every smart man would say. YES BOSS! 🤝🏾

@mindofprospect The S&P is unlikely to be up 25% every year of a 4 year car finance. Average likely closer to 5-7%. Plus you can sell the asset (car) years later whereas on car finance you hold nothing.
