Sorry for the missing updates, but i have been on vacation, and did not have any internet access. we have been sh1t anyway, Wade's been sh1t, and we are really close to relegation. Yesterday however we played a some of the best footy this season at least for the second half which saw us win a well deserved 4-1 victory. Long forgotten was the kick and rush footy we have been playing for the last couple of matches, and now we are again playing the nice pass and move which we do so well. Wade came on at the start of the second half, and played his best game so far in the GF jersey. He should definetly be in the starting lineup against Brondby this weekend. AGF scores: Andreasen (mom again) Nielsen, Graulund & Risom Well done lads! Cheers
How many teams get relegated from the Danish Superleague? Right now AGF are second from bottom, but they are even on points with Viborg and only one point behind Silkeborg(Danish Superleague standings).
Having watched Barrett at San Jose, his game is much more attuned to possession and runs up the sideline. Could it be that his manager prefers the "kick and rush footy" that you describe in your post? That would account for the rough patch he seems to have experienced. Frank Yallup at San Jose coached a very possession oriented game, stressing the need to keep defensive shape and to move into the attacking third by building up to an offensive thrust but prepared for defense if possession was lost.
Our manger certainly does not prefer kick and rush, we have been going through a very bad spell the last couple of weeks the problem being a lot of injuries to our already weak defence, which means we have to focus a lot on our defence. when in form our team plays a nice pass & move footy. You could really see the diffrence yesterday in the first half we were playing high balls to our attackers, which didn't work at all, however we still manged to score two goals. In the second half you could see the players had lots of confidence and was playing the ball on the ground, and players were willing to run and create space for each other. we had full control of the game in the second half, scored two more goals which saw us win a well deserved 4-1 victory. Apprently Wade has been lacking confidence, which is the main reason for him being on the bench the last couple of matches, but I think he is back now, he did enough yesterday to prove that.
