I don't really know the Croatian national team well, so I was wondering, what do you guys think was the reason for their crushing 7-0 defeat against England in the match early this morning?

The photo shows the performance of the South Korean national team in this Asian Games. There's a soccer final match between Korea and Japan tonight at 7:30 PM. I hope they achieve great results!

(!!!This also applies to Man Utd!!!) There are opinions like, "Chelsea gets more points in games with low possession this season," and "They can only play counter-attacking football," and I also thought, "That really seems to be the case." However, after reading an article titled "Is Premier League possession football on the way out?" by a reporter named Umir Irfan (from BBC), I've come to see this phenomenon from a different perspective, so I'd like to share a part of this great article with you all! According to the article, in the first 5 games of the season, Chelsea recorded 51.4% possession when drawing, 34.5% when winning, and 67.2% when losing. Chelsea scored within 7 minutes in 4 consecutive games since the start of the season. This means Chelsea has switched to a defensive-first, counter-attacking style of play after scoring an early goal within 7 minutes. With this operational style, possession tends to be low, and games where they score first are more likely to be won. Character limitㅠㅠ

1. I don't know why watching Arsenal lose feels better than my own team winning lol (Before this match, I thought Chelsea's 15-goal conceded title record was about to be broken haha) 2. I thought Brighton's press would be too strong and they'd tire out in the second half, but seeing that Arsenal ran more distance suggests Brighton's pressing system is incredibly efficient, wow ㄷㄷ

1. Midfield (Henderson & Barkov) - With Henderson playing, the midfield has a good presence and feels very stable 👍 👍 - Barkov's left-footed long passes after receiving the ball and turning are delicious 🍯 (Seems like his best performance in an official match, and his left-footed passing is better than Enzo's right-footed passing ㅎㅎ) 2. Welbeck - He's often compared to Jupe 😭, I really thought about what it would be like if Jupe were in that situation... (Come on, Eme, get healthy and play already!) 3. Chavarria - Compared to his current form, he seems superior in every aspect except for his smaller size compared to Hato~ He also runs incredibly hard ㅎㅎ 4. Tactical Limitations - The current team structure and squad composition seem to be most threatening in open spaces. Today, when Brentford set up a mid/low block, there were almost no flashes of brilliance in attack. Moving forward, it seems necessary to strengthen tactics that can break down a deep defense by exploiting the half-spaces (like Pep's City and currently Arsenal) and through wide pattern play.

Day 1 of only typing lol

1. Honestly, I haven't seen a keeper like Sanchez when it comes to aerial balls. (+ To be frank, Sanchez looked shaky this match.) 2. We desperately need midfielders. Without proper central midfielders, our attacks are constantly developing like counter-attacks, and we keep turning over the ball. 3. Left-footed defenders need to wake up. Colwill and Hato haven't been in good form lately. Disasi is actually better. We could try playing Chalobah more actively. (Lacroix is the 🐐)

How to replace a Striker? Just use Yamal and Harpy! Harpy's pass was good and Yamal received it and scored well!
