I feel like we give up a lot of goals on crosses to unmarked players at the back post, kind of like the one today. Is that a tactical deficiency of Ange ball? Or is someone not tracking back enough to cover the last man across the box? Thoughts?


announcer on the highlights I watched said Gray tracked a runner into the box when he probably should have passed him off to another defender and guarded the back post. He’s 18 so blame it on inexperience.

I wish it was as simple as that, but it's not the first time it's happened.

Here's the sequence against City. Ball on the right, LB on the ball, LCB trying to block the passing lane, RCB has his eyes on a runner potentially coming into the box or waiting for a cutback, RB (Gray) is marking a runner. The circled attacker is who the ball goes to and scores.

Here's a similar situation against West Ham. Ball on the right. LB on the ball, LCB clogging the passing lane, RCB on a runner, RB is on a runner. Guy that scores comes in from out of the picture.

The RB in this game was Porro I believe. So it's not all on Gray and I wouldn't be surprised if this is something opponents have seen on film.
