Moyes should abandon reactive football.
The
general play of Everton has showed that despite a sound defense, they
have always tended to mirror opposition or looked to counter them.
Arrigo Sacchi once said that his Milan side were the last side to ever
try to be proactive. In many ways its true because managers have tended
to look too seriously into the opponents and their formations that the
preparations have become more reactive. However, Barcelona have showed
in recent years that proactive football is not extinct. The part where
proactive becomes difficult is when the players are not syncing with the
system. Sacchi was able to create on of the greatest teams but he never
was able to do that again pointing to the fact that the set of players
he had were unique. At United, I believe
that we rarely buy players who are capable of playing only in a single
position. And reason being that our football has been partly proactive
always. But the next level is that of Bayern's and BVB's . Bayern showed
this year a hybrid system so well drilled that it was impossible to
stop them from playing their way unless, someone played in a similar way
and that was BVB and Arsenal last year who have shown that fire should
be countered with fire.
At United, the truth is that we have played
in a similar way for a long time.. but pressing has never been as
strong as bayern have shown last year.Moyes in that way should recognise
that the football we play should point towards the likes of Bayern and
not to the likes of Milan or even Real Madrid for that matter.
Your opinions please !?
