That's exactly how it is with Krasic. It's amazing how teams just double up on that side the moment he gets the ball. That wouldn't happen if we had Gio or someone like him on the left. Our play now is predictable.
interesting. so you think the opponent would not double up on krasic an their left side of defense, because they fear he would play a long ball to their right side of attack where
giovinco would
win the aerial challenge against their right back and then be clean on goal ?
opponents can easily double up on our wingers if they want to. they have a side back and a midfielder for that ... no problem in doing that.
an even greater problem would be, that you may not have too many players that are ballhogs who dribble first and then think, because this slows down every attack. the ball is faster than a dribbling player, so too many dribblers would make it easier for the opponent to defend, because they got more time to get back into defense, if every station the ball is played to, first attempts to dribble past an opponent
