I know this is kind of off topic but what is the reason that GGG won't create an attack around Gio? He is by far our most creative player. Especially when teams are defending deep, wouldn't it be best for him to be on the ball the most pulling the strings? Set Adams and either Weston/Musah behind him in a double pivot. Put Plulisic and Weah out wide and find a striker that can play back to goal.

I get so infuriated that we just pass the ball sideways then try to bomb it over the top that is low percentage and then when we do get to the ball first, we have horrible 1st touches and the attack is gone. I'm no soccer strategy expert (outside of my hundreds of hours in football manager) but if we can see it, why can't GGG?

Because its all about GGG's ego. My system... And remember this is a guy that was fired from his job in Europe because his team couldn't score. Its a possession based system. "Possession without penetration is just masturbation." 'Rocky' Ray Hudson.

Ya I think Gregggggggg got this one right last night. Gio had way more touches and was more involved than if he was just a ten. He was pulling the strings starting the attacks and then moved forward perfectly to be where he needed to be on the goal. Plus McKinnie has more assists this season than anyone in Europe not named KDB, so that makes sense keeping him higher based on what's he's done.


I want Gregggggg gone yesterday, but tactically he got it right yesterday.
