I can understand the pass it out from the back mentality and getting everyone comfortable on the ball, however, i wish he would just add a caveat to that by saying, if Gareth Bale is bearing down on you, and you have already tried to pass it back to the keeper once, GET RID.
I think he probably does, see my comment further up the thread. He encourages them to play it out from the back, he doesn’t tell them to do it at the cost of leaking a goal. The players have to take responsibility for deciding when that it’s appropriate and when it isn’t.[/quote]
I’d agree with that to a certain extent but on numerous occasions such like the incident on Saturday, we almost look scared to take that option, like its brainwashed into the players that this is the way we must play at all times.
I don’t know, part of me thinks that the odd mistake like this is a small price to pay for having players who feel confident on the ball and over the season ,as we have seen, we actually start off goal scoring moves from these situations, and just to hoik the ball would have meant us not having scored them.
A question of balance and judgement, i’d guess.

F@ck me mon,we only managed one point in 3,games,you more chance of getting a free meal and ale of Dave Whelan. ;)You only had to mention Whelan and free pies!
If i remember correctly, most of the men who stuck their heads over the parapet in the trenches got their heads blown off!
Only so many times you can be in this position and ride your luck i’m afraid. I’m not saying it’s over but it just feels like our year.
