Quote: Graham Richards "Simply incredible run and off load at the end. BUT at the danger of being shot down. That run for me emphasises the lack of defensive skill in the modern game. Manu is a freak. But I was always trained to have one tackle round the legs and a second round the top. I accept his upper body strength is freakish but I have never seen a man run without his legs. Why tackles never involve a man hitting the legs is beyond me. I accept he has a great step and may avoid the leg tackle but any decent coach would surely have their men take him the old fashioned way one downstairs one upstairs.'"
Understand what you're saying but you said it yourself - Manu is a freak!!
Even with players around his legs, when on form, he has the ability to somehow step out of tackles!!
Are you Kirk Yeaman?
