Don't understand what you mean. Sweden (in yellow) look very poor.

 


Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled.

It did cross my mind earlier not being to keep the ball for more than two passes does seem familiar haha.

Saying that... it's working for them so far and they probably should have just scored!

Can see what the OP is saying.

Two banks of four and two strikers all playing in their own half.

No ambition and hoping to nick a draw or a fluke goal.

Backwards and across passing when in possession.

And they look poor, definite similarities

The gameplan worked for them. Got to commend their effort and organisation. Usually similar praise we came our way after gaining points last season.

Ha ha I thought the same. Rigid 442. Park the bus, Surrender possesion and occasionaly counter attack. Terrible game to watch but they got a draw so it worked.

It's only really like us if they try the same against Slovakia and Poland.

Thinking back to 2018, we went into the game with a very attacking formation, Spain didn't and could have been more direct and stuck more 50/50 balls into the area.

Still, most sides would take a point in the opening game.
