Ah rooting against Hamburg never gets old, currently losing 0-2 at home in first ever 2nd div game.
Would be hilarious if they now struggled to stay in this league with bullshit for the next few years

Is your plan really to curse them out of pro football by attending all games? =)

Lampard won his first managerial game with Derby. Apparently the game was a bit sluggish on both sides, but still a good way to get the season going.

Derby were very poor first half, playing too slowly and getting pressed into giving the ball away. Reading couldn't capitalize and Lampard made the tactical changes at half time that won them the game. It was an interesting tactical game that could have gone either way.

I thought it was awful from Derby in first half, they are clearly wanting to play, possession based game which is great. That philiosphy and to win with it in that league would be fantastic, however, they did not press or play any balls in behind. They kept it in the floor which is fine i get that, but not to play any balls in between the channels was baffling. Then when they lost the ball they never pressed to get it back, so that is another big thing you need with that style. You HAVE to win it back fast, they had 68% possession first half but due to them giving the ball away so much Reading had 3-4 clear chances to score which they failed from their high press.

Second half they started to play it a big longer at times and pressed way more. The balls inbetween made them give questions to Reading and then the game came alive because Reading scored. Good game second half, bit boring first xD

Lampard needs to make sure his team press and have energy to do that for 90 minutes and remember to play some balls in between or through the channels to get the back 4 turning, or every team will just sit 2 backs of 4 in front and be comfortable.

I don't get how PL teams pay so much for some players.

World cup year actually feels ridiculous. Season starting in 1 week, and some players have yet to train or prepare with their teams. No wonder managers are unhappy with players representing their nations.

Cesc is injured reason he not in the game, he posted picture on social media on thursday/friday with crutches so i assume that is the reason he has not been in this game at all. Looks like Drinkwater is coming on in second half after getting a few instructions from Sarri during game.

Pedro for Willian is what i would do now to get Willan some minutes as well. Callum looks great though!
