PAOK vs Verona

Verona Tactics

Result

PAOK 1-2 Verona
Finbogies; Sturridge x2

Classic clash of styles this one. I think PAOK have a decent tactical basis but they don’t have the players to pull it off for me. Against other teams they may have more joy but Henderson and Delph can run all day and eventually the pressure will tell and Verona are able to feed the quality they have up top.

I can see PAOK taking the lead but just running out of steam and Verona won’t be denied.


Twente vs Basel

Result
Twente 2-0 Basel

Nice balance to the Twente side, and what I believe is a very impressive defence too. The midfield is youthful and technically good but someone with experience who will have you sniffing boot polish may not go amiss.


VFL Wolfsburg vs Granada

Wolfsburg Tactics
Spoiler:


Granada Tactics
Spoiler:

Wolfsburg 0-1 Granada
Brahimi

Pretty intriguing contest and a bit tough to read. On another day I say 0-0 or 0-1 to Wolfsburg. But today is today, and today I think Granada have that sprinkling of attacking talent to see them over the line and I don’t see enough from Wolfsburg in wide areas to exploit Kiessling. Defensively both teams are very impressive and kudos to Miky for going with an attacking outlook, but TSJ has matched him in the middle and is waiting to counter and snatch the goal to win. Too tactically savvy today so a good win in a game that’s far from easy.

Getafe vs Genk
Getafe Tactics
Spoiler:

Genk Tactics
Spoiler:

Result

Getafe 1-1 Genk

Son; Ibrahimovic

A draw was the only conclusion I could draw here because basically both sides are condensing the pitch so it’s 2/3rds normal sides by focusing down the middle. It forces a scrappy game, ironically with the talent on show. Ibra can do anything out of anywhere but I think tactically Viva has been astute and is worth a point today.

You could probably do with a young signing or two though if you’re Getafe, or hiring Indiana Jones to find the fountain of youth.


Bordeaux vs Montpellier

Bordeaux Tactics

Spoiler:
 
MONTPELLIER tactics

Spoiler:


Result

Bordeaux 1-2 Montpellier
Laporte; Eto’o, Holtby

I looked at the formation Marky set out and I wasn’t sold but he explained it brilliantly and I’m comfortable giving Montpellier the win. It’s a formation that brings plenty of dynamism to attacks but may be susceptible to counters on the flanks in future. Problem Nando has is that he’s gone narrow and I can’t see the battle being won in the middle vs 2 headed passing machine Clasirlo.

Midfield, without a doubt. You need some dynamism in there.

Thanks Soddy, good work Ok!

Well done GSC. We were always going to be up against it playing the strongest side in the league first up.

I'll be honest, neother did I. I bought some players, Olly did tactics, but there was no conversation between us ahead of either Laugh
