“Plymouth are far from perfect but are without doubt one of the most exciting and interesting teams in England at the moment from the view of a football fan and even an analyst.

Ryan Lowe deserves massive credit for even turning them into title contenders in the first place. If you get a chance to watch them live on TV or in person, it will be 90 minutes well spent.”

Great, should be good for the club revenues.

I’d hate to watch Argyle through those eyes!

It’s football not applied trigonometry.

Reading that - the best analogy i could give is -

We play a controlled game of chess for 90 plus minutes & our checkmate is either 1 or 3pts

It shows how much work goes into every game plan & how tactically astute the gaffer & his team are becoming

Our players certainly do not come across as headless chickens & have planned for every scenario during the course of the game

Only 2 or 3 months ago, and going back to last season, numerous posters on here were suggesting that RL had no idea about tactics and formations.
Personally, I think the problem was last season’s recruitment compared to this season’s. A relatively new manager is entitled to learn from his mistakes and RL certainly seems to have.
His ‘tactical’ critics seem to have gone very quiet recently.
Have they been converted to 3-5-2?

Interesting, the confirmation that Houghton’s role is so pivotal here. Also our above average number of progressive passes, which argues against those who used to complain before this run about our ‘tippy tappy’ football.

Boy that was a read. How does an analyst watch a football match because I wouldn't notice half of what he is talking about🤣🤣🤣🤣. Summer recruitment was obviously key.

10/10 RL, Shuey, Nanks and our director of football for everything being put in place.
Sometimes the managers on here make me smile. Saying that everyone is welcome to an opinion 👍

Hope they do one for Bolton 😷

So to summarise, Argyle get the ball forward quickly, play it on the ground more than in the air, have a good backline/midfield pivot and make lots of chances. I could have told you that.

Don't think it does. The complaints about tippy tippy football were the lack of progressive passes!

My brain hurts.

I would imagine that MGM will find this exceedingly interesting. I've only seen one game thus season (Burton) and out of all that stuff the only two things I noticed was the outside centre backs going very wide and Houghton's astute link up play.

 

[Gary Wills]

Agree and disagree with some of that.
Certainly unsure about the poached comment, I thought RL applied for the vacancy along with others.
