PAGE 30 | BULLSEYE MATCHDAY PROGRAMME THIS week, I watched this rather bizarre complicating. post-match interview with Manchester United Women's head coach Marc Skinner. You couldn't imagine old-schoolers such as Harry Redknapp, Neil Warnock or Mick In it, he analyses his team's performance in McCarthy explaining 'ten pocket' or 'zone 14' the 1-1 draw with Tottenham Hotspur and the in their pre-match team talk. I mean, you are need to lift chins off the ground after having dealing with young men here (or women in conceded a 95th-minute equaliser. Skinner's case) after all. All pretty run-of-the-mill stuff you'd think, but It's for this reason that I remain convinced that there was something about Skinner's response a young talent would be far better off learning which resonated with me more than any other his trade amid Non-League surroundings, manager's comment of similar ilk. rather than get lost in the academy system of the higher reaches. It makes a man of you. “Direct play is becoming a real key part of the game again,” he said using string hand In The NLP a fortnight ago, we ran a feature on animation. “The game flips in cycles. It flips to the past, present and future of the England C open, where you block with two sixes because team, highlighting the vast number of top-level there's ten pocket, it goes from the zone 14 to players that have come through that system to wide play again, back to crosses direct because carve out successful professional careers for that would then be something you don't train.” themselves. Now, I'm know I'm no qualified coach, and the Andre Gray, the QPR striker, said: “I loved my wrong side of 40, but is there something I'm time with England C.

People might be surprised by how eyes that the 40-pluses no longer recognise it? professional the England C set-up is.” I must be a dinosaur already!

And not a 'zone 14' in sight.

Yes, I understand the game has moved on from Shankly's era but is it possible that Skinner and his new age brigade are over- complicating something that really doesn't need
