Welcome back to the Generation X G show myself and Jermain
Defoe. They were going to talk, turn our attention. Now, to
Leicester city, struggling Leicester city, bottom of
the table, just one point loss five on the spin
and got hit 45 at Brighton,
this weekend, you mind, if we look at the
team selection from Brendan Rodgers the team selections
from Brendan Rodgers, over the period is chopped, he's
changed. His Personnel. Have been different for for to this
weekend. No, Jamie. Vo,
Jamie vardy on the bench this week.
Frank has to play
regardless of form. I think Jamie is Ronnie has the plane.
I was going to get your goals
Madison's a real interest in one for me. I think in plan why
I think is wasted. I think he had a see ya James Madison. He
has to be in a central area like the ten, you know because
it was you know
what is got creative. You know
like getting on the ball
you know I think is wasted on the right hand side and
defensively as well as it's not necessarily going to offer you
too much defensively as he, but he offers you so much going
forward that
you wasting in there and you get better.
Sort of linking up with the Seven Falls as we saw. Actually
with my United clip, the positions that Christian
Eriksen got himself into and the calls that he then played.
As a striker, Jamie vardy someone document in actually,
wherever it might be picks the ball up in that net number 10
position
is always looking forward. Is always positive. Let's Get
Closer to the goal. Yeah. Host of the go where we're going to
get our best players, you know, close to the goal, you know is
one of the better players of course,
you know, I was really interested in even playing 442
off what you know, you know for free free. You know having more
bodies in the central areas,
really interesting. Selection. To be honest, this time Look at
some of the
action then from the weekend and the shape of the
team. If we like,
I mean, if I would pause it straight, we're pulling it
straight away. I'll stop it. Straightaways back for. So back
for there we go.
Midfield.
Know that now, here it is your for
that's Madison.
That's the position he wants to be and isn't, it doesn't really
want to be out by just want to be tracking back. It doesn't
want to be doing this, helping out his fullback and getting
f***** in a
actually, they caused a bit of a problem, really,
brighten with their wing backs
and that's That, that was the shape of Leicester. And
actually, what I would say is they were quite narrow
and bit like Arsenal in many ways that
they narrowed off.
So if we
link it up,
this is the team. And they've basically said again, to
brighten, you can go out wide.
You can go out in these positions, but you're not going
to come through the middle. Yeah.
And these two players.
The way they get themselves into space all the time. This
is Pascal gross. Actually, a central midfielder Who come out
into a wide position. But the wide area is cause less to all
sorts of problems, didn't they? Yes, that's what a man is.
And I think if you are going to do that,
especially when you play in a 4-4-2,
see here, you don't bleep, pay is fine.
Yeah. The one side of the picture, which is perfect, so
they squeezed it the stent. You can have that of case, but if
it gets switch quickly, this is the danger isn't and brighten.
Oh, that's really when you pay your system, they know, right?
Where's a spare man? Because really
for Writin start setting traps. Okay, we can play here
but but what we want to do is get get the ball here. So we
want to switch. We want to switch it as quick as we can as
quick as we can because we're as a
spare man. So when you go in here,
there was the ball goes there,
then you're in business.
And he's tried to hit it there. You thought that hitting it has
nice, big diagonally possibly can as it happens they do
switch as this right hand side. Let's do them funding across.
I'm just going to pause it again quickly. It's going to
take that battery slightly.
Well, we talked about James, Madison doesn't want to defend
its going to highlight him, though. James Madison,
done upfront. And to be honest, I feel sorry for me, of course
you have to put in the yard for the tea, has he does have to
get back there, doesn't it? You have to, you have to, you
should get back there but naturally because he wants to
play in there.
Yeah, what happens? Hey hey just switches off the bull gets
played outside the pitch,
and across comes in, and look where he is, it's too far back
as yeah. He's too far for which I was out here. So now problem
that swing back to win back the goal,
and here we go, oh, bring back to win back,
so 2y players. Whereas, if he was in that position there,
then you can avoid that
now then because he's
probably starved a possession.
James Madison.
She's like what? Yeah, he's now in here, is now coming deep.
It's plain, as a number six, rather than as it as a right.
Side of Midfield player. Yeah, the shape of the team is all
over the place,
everyone's in the wrong positions because he's now drifted
I actually think, I actually think that
even in and out of possession,
Lester of a to,
to spread. Yeah, I would say and they don't smell, they
don't smell danger. No,
so if we play it on again, Madison could wants to ball.
Now, I'm thinking now
one of the center, but if you're a centre-back now, what
you thinking you have to lock down,
don't get tight. You have to go and get tight going to get too
close in. This situation is two against one. Yeah, the striker
should never be able to get the ball in this situation and turn
free.
The 2deep 2deep way to not a not not locked on enough.
Play on
gives the ball away.
Get skip past. Now he's got a decision to make what I would
say. When I watched Lester quite a bit,
they do drop drop drop. They never engage it. Now, I think
this is really difficult for Johnny Evans because you're two
against one.
So I think that's really difficult decision to make.
Where did he go to the go to the board's? You're not going
to the ball as it happens. He sort of drops and drops.
Eventually does try to
makes a bad decision
ends up in the back of the net result from a giveaway from
James Madison, looking to get on the board in the middle of
the pitch and the real
Problems isn't the first, that's probably because this,
I mean, this is I think what 10 15 minutes into the game, when
you watch the clip there you'd watch anything.
This looks like his last minute the game,
but then it's then you get a fragrance to 10 minutes, 50
minutes into the game and then they get a goal. Yeah,
defensive issues. That's been the big problem. Isn't it for
less than let's have a look at some of the goals that they've
conceded.
This is them on the ball.
Going forward against Ten Men. We should say against Chelsea.
Now I'm saying,
squeeze the pitch
ways the pitch. Look how deep they are
way too deep slow getting out really slow getting out. I'll
be squeezing the pitch, leave them aside, leave them in
there. No problem at all, they should be here. Well, we saw,
we saw a man united through, it didn't we? Yeah. Martinez and
veranda and how
pushed up. They were 10, 15 yards inside the opposition
half. They've got to get to at least the halfway line. But
they're very slow getting forward.
Chelsea win the ball back. What kind of Falls happened? And
that's very my. Chelsea are down to ten men
that you should have a manage. You should have a match. What
you can't afford to do
is without a spare. Man.
Talk about locking on go and lock on. Yeah, you give him
the ball away. Now we should be tight. We should be close to
people.
They around the corner to he's that's the first time it gets
free.
This is this is again, we should reiterate against ten
men. That always seems to be a spare, man. The spare man. Just
happens to be
a Chelsea man rather than or less than
Especially when you when you play with two forwards. Yeah.
So you got two forwards here yet
when you play with two forwards. Yeah.
And you're both going to press
that two nines for 4 to 2 p.m. at 2/9. Do you want?
Well, where do you wear one of the nine?
At a position has become a number 10 which means you stop
the six from getting on the board. Yeah. Because you don't
want nothing going through the middle. Yeah, if in grow. So
what you do is
one enough one of the forwards has to become a ten.
Yeah,
the other number nine compressed no problem but then
you have stubble. Wait, you Not let the number six gone up. All
right, and that's exactly what they do.
So it gets played through the Middle. Look at the Acres of
space, that he's got someone of his ability. Able to pick
a pass
spare, man again out the right. The to look at the back for
the dropping off
this. When it all comes from,
this is where the gold comes and brings. James gets that
bottom. We've seen this goal already reached James delivery
Ryan Sterling at the far post.
Just seems like on transition. They just stayed they switch
off against man united. Again, very deep. Look at the reaction
of willful and DD just going to put play this a little bit
slower,
the ball gets played back to Danny. Won't look, he's reaction
and Edie, he should, you mean he should now sprintin now for
you've got to get forward, haven't they? Yeah, they sure
got to bring up the pitch spring my face. Look at the
stretch. They are. Look at this bear man.
If it had got himself, if it had got yourself at the picture
General. Sanchez would still be outside
as it happens. It gets around the goal. Keeper gets attacked.
Can't believe his luck to be honest isn't on top of us.
Position. Yeah, she's jogs back and he ends up scoring
the goal.
S balls. They always seem to be
a little bit earlier. Just nearly getting there. Nearly
making a tackle
lose the ball. Make a challenge with just missed it. Make
a check, just missed it. Yeah. Brilliant play from Pascal.
Grossman a lovely finish him trois Arden and actually,
we should say, brightener, pretty good team to watch, tell
Michael team. But I just feel like when you're in a sort of
that position, and that stuff that I've course, this is going
to happen players, going to go pass you by the same time,
something like game management. Sometimes you have to end
the play. Yeah. And I'll get a yellow car, you have to end up
like And I avoid avoid goal scorer in situations, like this
is this sum it up for
Lester points. Drop from winning positions. Already this
season eight most in the division
it's not good reading as a
so
it's going to be tough, it's going to be tough, you know,
list of course I was a football club they've been down there
before.
Ya know, the managers on the real pressure
on paper they were there, they were a decent team. Never
a good team, they'll be all right, they'll be all right.
Let's head over to Leroy
and I think Leroy
you've got a few
fans, get in touch.
If you comments what,
it's a really positive comment goes by and I think they really
deserve it. I got this from Abraham. He says, highly I can
we just take a second and appreciate Pascal gross
this this season. I think he's been prolific with Brighton.
Probably a national team caught up with Germany for the World
Cup but this Ray. What do you say? What do you think about
this? Brilliant someone has really impressed me.
Yeah,
an experienced player, a leader in, at change rooms
consistent. I think for me, that's that's probably the key
word, you know, when you've got players that, you know, they're
going. Put in those eight to ten nine
out of ten performances week in week out,
you know, but easy some player, you know, is the top layer.
It certainly hasn't talked about top players, trust us to
bring up for them. And I love this skill for respect to
the Penalty against indeed you saying in full motion and you
can't really see it and
indeed it just actually push it into the ground. We've got it
here in slow motion. What do you think of this skill
Jemaine? It's brilliant. Not in the skill is not a strength.
He's actually off the picture but to have that sort of strength.
If I'm if I'm in DD, I'm concentrate on the ball. What
Man,
he spent it with a bullet, otherwise dealing with trust on
there, I don't know, I don't get that. Absolutely. And if
I mean it and you had a great great weekend to us and then
I just love this event that celebrates. I mean, this
me seen the gold already
but this is all about the celebration. And when you're in
sync, the team are in sync. But when you're in sync with
the fans, this is what it goes in the shade. That's
a celebration,
but just look at all the fans are they react as well. They
all these things are all
the clues mean? I don't think they could do a Klinsmann in
the standard. I think I might go wrong but at the moment
the while away either did you To do a backflip. No, you don't
celebrate
my head. I just love scoring goals. It's not scoring goals
because you have you enjoyed your debut on generation in
called HG. It's been good for the
really great having you really has been good. Having you have
really good to get Jim otte Jermaine's Insight. Fascinating
listening to
