Ando Posted September 3, 2012 Report Share Posted September 3, 2012 here's a thing I wrote http://akronsportsnow.com/ameritas-classic...-tactics-notes/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fknbuflobo Posted September 4, 2012 Report Share Posted September 4, 2012 here's a thing I wrote http://akronsportsnow.com/ameritas-classic...-tactics-notes/ I absolutely love this analysis, Andy. As far as I am concerned, you can discuss formation, tactics, and strategy every match. I also agree with your comparison of Koroma to Mattocks. Darren is a truly rare commodity; a pure finisher, and not much else. Alfred Koroma is closer to Teal Bunbury, playing the complete game. I must say, Koroma's goal vs. Creighton was a beauty.

Ando Posted September 4, 2012 Report Share Posted September 4, 2012 yeah, definitely different types of forwards and by "more complete," I want to stress, I don't necessarily mean "better." There's definitely more to Darren's game than often met the eye - He was fast, but so are a lot of other guys. I feel his movement, on top of being quick, was always pretty intelligent as well. He stretched a lot of defenders in his time here by moving around, checking back occasionally, etc. But I think, in terms of on-ball ability, Koroma has the potential to do things Darren probably wasn't technically proficient enough to pull off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
