See the quote above about putting energy into set pieces. Looks like his not done anything.

Its a conspiracy!
Newcastle (H)
Ange in his press conferences hes not satisfied with pur position. Either hes supremely confident he can win us something or its propagznda bollox covering his arse. Next season its full on. Top 4 and trophy. Nothing less.
Nope, as the CERN scientists who open them all up, are all Gooners.
4-0 away to Villa (when the doom-mongers were already predicting we'd lose) no good for you?
Can someone explain to me the advantage of zonal marking on corners. I'm old & a bit thick so keep it simple.
That'll be the doom-mongers being proven right repeatedly these days, yeah? Just like last season, yeah? While you and your ilk are stuck whining about referees weekly and blaming absolutely everything but the team itself for our terrible results and performances.
Too kamikaze for me atm.
Utter gash that other blokes talking. He had a two week break and months to fix how to deal getting bullied at corners. Ditto inverting both fullbacks and then looking dumb when you see how fucking exposed your centerbacks are. I've been saying this for sometime this is a systemic failure and he looks to proud to change it. Very worrying.
Problem is it almost certainly is personnel. When Pep came into City he had a billion pound squad and came 3rd and spent a further billion which in today’s market is probably £2bn. Klopp had similar issues although spending far less.
Point is City and Pool backed their managers and got elite players who fit the system. We have like it or not a system manager like them, only works if you build to the system. If we want to go cheap or bargain we’d be better getting a pragmatic manager (I don’t mean pragmatic like Jose who is defensive but real pragmatic).
If you have a pick and mix squad or square pegs round holes squad like us then the manager for them is Harry Redknapp, someone who is gifted at getting the sum out of the parts. Not sure what the equivalent of a modern Redknapp is but a manager that works with what they have and always changes it up to suit the opposition. Problem with that is these type of managers have ceilings, we might get 4th but that would be it, long term growth would be limited.
Its either back the project with good scouting, time and money or get a pragmatist and continue with tradition.
The sloppy defending at set pieces isn’t that on Ange?
This system could work if you had players better or far better than that of every other team.
Problem is we won't get in players better than everyone else's because of the financial limitations of our model. We can improve the squad, sure, but not to the extent it will be easily the best in the league.
My mindset is Ange lost kane and got us into europe. Satisfied. Villa wont last 5 minutes in CL and tbh europa might be a good chance for us to blood some promising youngsters against some crap eastern european teams.
I criticised the team today, you mug. The 3 goals we conceeded were preventable.
Seriously. Fuck off you pitiful troll.... You have no genuine passion for this club.
Why you not crowing about XG this week? Cos it doesn't allow you to shit on the team.
That's not what I asked you.
You're a twat.
Nope. It's shit.
