@billycarpy@setpiecesicko@austriangooner1 Every day I lament the lack of people I can excitedly tell that Jake from Potshot and Bastian from Twitter have collaborated on a BBQ. Really excited for this, and especially happy to see Jake involved.

Before the Etihad, a piece on growing up, how this team has changed, tactical shifts, and the welcome weight of critical moments. This is what it's all about. ❤️

@MaxRadwan I this aspect of caitlins game was appreciated more. I fear when we get shiny new wingers we'll miss the raw carry power and mentality that caitlin has. And shes always quite intelligent about when it needs to happen how to retain the balll and lose pressure.

@potshotpod@alextowells@alexfrco@setpiecesicko@Eulenberg_ But I kind of empathise with Mikel being this close to the title and needing to change the way you approach the game cant be easy and I think we say his panic in teh quadruple change at the weekend. Dont think thats ever happened before.
@potshotpod@alextowells@alexfrco@setpiecesicko@Eulenberg_ And it undermines another thing I think De Zerbi said about how in possession the best solutions often come from players’ qualities and ideas.
With Mikel it feels like a tension we’ve brushed up against before, but one that feels more pronounced now.
@potshotpod@alextowells@alexfrco@setpiecesicko@Eulenberg_ Set pieces, rest defence, player hierarchy and control more broadly are all necessary.
But I have a problem with them being organising principles over intrinsic player quality. I think we’re seeing the upper limits of that. Even if we probably win the league without crazy change
