Nelly78 Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 Did anyone else think that Davidson seemed to keep changing the formation in the first half? We looked like we started off with 4 at the back, which meant we were able to put pressure on Celtic further up the park. He then seemed to tuck Brown into the middle and drop Wright back a couple of minutes before Celtic scored their first, which pretty much conceded the middle of the park to Celtic. We seemed to have Brown and Considine standing around static, marking nobody for large spells, with our midfield and full backs getting totally overrun by runners from deep. He seemed to try to change to 4 at the back again just moments before Celtic's 2nd goal, which may have led to some of the confusion, with players on the left not fully aware of the change? Then we scored, with Brown winning the ball back and Wright scoring, as they were both further up the park, following which Davidson switched back to 5 at the back and conceded the middle of the park and territory to Celtic. We looked so much better during the short spells we played with 4 at the back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lennyzer0 Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 (edited) 20 hours ago, kingjoey said: “VAR will only check the attacking possession phase that lead to the goal, and the starting point is limited to the immediate phase, for instance a corner being taken.” So that means that, for instance, a corner being taken with the ball outside of the quadrant or throw in being taken from the wrong spot should mean the goal being disallowed. Talking to an SPFL ref of my acquaintance about this, and he says that - and he admitted that it's more than a bit counter-intuitive and may change in future - currently the attacking phase being referred to here does not include the actual event itself which restarts it (i.e. a corner kick/ throw in / free-kick) and that is not therefore part of the attacking phase so far as VAR is concerned. So, while a throw in starts off an attacking phase, it is not itself part of that attacking phase. Which even by VAR standards is a mental position.

Youd often see Brown come inside and Wright drop to make a back 5, with Carey coming out to defend against Taylor. We didnt seem hugely bothered about their CBs having the ball, which is a good sign as it means Davidson identified that as their weakness on the ball. Im sure Jota switched sides once they cottoned on to what we were doing. I liked the idea behind it but think it struggled at points, but Celtic are Celtic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree, Linesmen always make sure the ball is in the correct position before a corner is taking plus they always stand in the way at throw-ins so players don't steal a yard or two, If this was true there would be no need for them to be there with Var drawing lines for off-side. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good managers will try different things to stop Celtic it's not unusual to just let the two CB's have the ball, playing teams 4 or 5 times a season gives that opportunity.
