There were a lot of articles and videos about Heurzler’s “no midfield” systems but it doesn’t appear to be working very well currently.
He’s a young coach with a tonne of development left to do but maybe part of his growth will be realizing he doesn’t have to reinvent the wheel everytime Brighton play.
Well they’re three down and you probably need to revise your prediction
The problem IMO is not the MF but the front four. They’re failing on both sides of the ball
Too tactically naive to work in the English game.
Might have worked in the less physical German leagues pretty well.
But any tactical nous in this system of his will be crushed by the Brighton players being relatively not so physical.
I’m not sure Bloom really cares about this aspect so much. He’s running Brighton in the BVB model.
He’ll do well to turn them into PL’s equivalent of Dortmund, though.
Meant Dortmund post Klopp and Tuchel.
Brighton were probably the team I tune in to watch (if I do get time).
But not this season though. The setup is just tactically naive. With Potter and De Zerbi , there was atleast method behind the madness.
But here. It’s just madness.
And you can’t progress as a premier league side still having Dunk as your main defender.
Yeah but he sacrifices huge spaces in midfield to get those four forwards to be so aggressive and that’s what Forest are counter attacking into.
Personally I think are much better this seasom than whatever that dross De Zerbi served up was but they do seem to enjoy these coaches who play with unusual systems.
Heurzler is only in his early 30s though, I expect he’ll improve.
Nope. De Zerbi had some buffer in his formations. Some guy to atleast hold the fort in his midfield.
With Hehurzler? This is way too tactically naive. Way too easy to win the battles in the midfield.
Add that to the fact that they’ve got Dunk in defense who’s frankly not PL level.
Chris Wood is the perfect example of what having an efficient striker at No.9 can give you if a team plays to his strengths. Thats 17 goals, joint third (with Halaand and Isak) and 2 behind mo.
Arsenals main man, Havertz, on a lowly 8 goals.
Yeah but I think all of us fall into the trap of thinking that managers/coaches just are who they are and do not develop their ideas or get better. He’s such a young and inexperienced coach that hopefully he’s taking these as learning experiences to adapt and improve his system.
2 goals in 2 mins for Forest.
Now winning 7-0
Neco got one
Still around 7 mins to go…could get more.
Fuck me…Brighton are special dog shit now
Talk about bouncing back in style after last week’s drubbing.
Hope it’s not the last Jota to score today.
Beginning to look like Brighton might lose this one.
Is Verbruggen the worst keeper in the league? Every time I watch this fella, he’s doing something idiotic to concede a goal.
The premier league is one strange league.
Just checked the scores… wtf.
So 23% of Forest’s goals have come against Brighton this season.
