Notts Forest vs Sunderland - Understanding Le Bris Play?
Nottingham Forest took on Sunderland AFC in a Pre-Season Friendly. Sunderland fielded a strong starting 11 and gave them a hard workout with no substitutes until after the hour mark in the Spanish heat.
But what did we learn about how Regis Le Bris plans to make Sunderland play. Quite a lot as it happens. Check out the video to find out.

Following the Blue Monday rout by Blackburn Rovers, how would Mike Dodds and Sunderland respond as an upbeat Bristol City rolled into the Stadium of Light.

Subsequently, Sunderland dominated the ...

Joke British mangers please lots out of work no good in his country joke
If that’s our starting 11 at the start of the season it’s going to be a long season. We need to upgrade on O’Nien and Roberts, and up front. Signing more squad players is a waste of time.
NOTTS Forest?!? Ooo they won't like that! 😂
We will be relegated you heard it hear
Great content!
Love these vids. Keep up the good work.
It's 18 months old this one. Let's see if my thoughts on Poveda hold up or if he's improved.
Brilliant analysis, great to see we are adopting a style of play. Only concern for me is whether the players have enough quality and ability to make this work, however it is early days, so this tactic will get repeated on the training ground. Keep it up Alt 👍
Thanks
St Pauli is in Hamburg, Germany my friend! Love the video. I really enjoyed how we set up different styles with each game. Le Bris' style of play is really evident, and suits many of our players profiles.
Did I say Austria? Well they used to be the same country...Idiot me. I also called Yates - Jerry (The ex-Swansea one)...instead of Ryan. Ah well, mortal errors and lack of time. Still, I'm glad you liked the video. And thanks for taking the time to drop the comment. Back in a few weeks.
Jerry Yates 😂 Ryan surely marra ?
Lol...how stupid of me. Not sure how I managed that? It would be spectacular if Jerry Yates scored for Forest. TY pointing that out. Hey ho.
Great stuff again Alt. Enjoy your holiday.
Top video again and really enjoyable analysis. Thought there goal was because O'Nien dived in and was too easy to get away from. He does that too often and Le Bris should tell him we can't always win the ball in those positions so just block off the pass.In my thinking that's more an individual error than a system one.
Yes, There's a series of problems with the goal, and the stuff I highlighted before about the centre halves and Midfielders in terms of who takes the runner or not play into this as well. But it's pre-season so I'm not going to be too hard on them learning a new system. It does show that they have to rely on each other to at correctly though. Thanks for taking the time to drop a positive comment, I really do appreciate it. And the notes and thoughts all feed into the things I look at so keep them coming too.
Excellent as always
TY and glad you've taken the time to drop me a note to say so. Spread the word marra.
Reggie appears to have implemented more tactics and ideas to the team in 3ish weeks, than the Doddfather did in 8 months. As you say, early days, still very rusty, but over time playing together, improving, and gaining fitness we should get better. Always a good morning when I wake up here in Australia to a notification that Trenchy has posted a new video
What a wonderful message that was to read. Thank you, glad I an keep you up to date and entertained. It's like a little Match of the Day just for Sunderland isn't it? Yes, Regis looks like he has a clear plan. Fingers crossed he gets off to a good start. I thought that Forest game was a good showing for only three weeks of training to a new system.
One thing I hope changes under le Bris is having all of our players in our box when defending corners. Because we leave no players further up the pitch we can’t counter attack or keep the ball if we clear the ball away. By leaving let’s say 2 players up the pitch, the opposition have to leave at least 2 more men back, then our box isn’t as congested. For example I don’t see the point in roberts being back to defend, especially when he has the ability to run with the ball and counter attack.
I think Le Bris said something the other day about having or wanting a set piece coach, so let's hope we get some planning and training into things, lord knows our set pieces last season were appalling. Thanks for taking the time to write a comment, I do appreciate it and glad you liked the vid.
Great analysis of the game and video mate 😃, I will definitely be tuning in to your videos this season. Let’s just hope thats its a better one than last 😂🔴⚪️
Another fantastic analysis by the Mackem Morgan Freeman! I think it showed in the shields match how valuable Auchiche can be in Le Bris tactics as mayenda enjoyed having someone picking out his runs a lot more in that match. It's a shame I won't see another analysis for a while but hope you enjoy your holiday and have a lot of good things to analyse by the time your back 🙏🏻
That's a new description, but I'll happily take that one. Thank you so much to taking the time to write such a generous comment. Thanks also for the twitter reposts. It makes a world of difference to know the enormous effort involved is liked by people, so thank you.And fingers crossed...I just hope Regis gets off to a good start.
@@altending my absolute pleasure mate I've been a big fan since you're very first video! Tbh last year I probably preferred your balanced analysis of games more than the games themselves 😅 keep up the great work
Thanks again....
A pleasure sir, especially when people take the time to show me they appreciate it. Keeps up the motivation. All the best.
@@altending like I always say the most informative videos possible you really could land yourself a job. you see so much other people don't see and take so much time to deliver.
Great news about Ballard today marra 👍🏼🇵🇪
Superb news. Add in a couple of strikers and it's game on.
@@altending 100%. I wonder if Clarke will stay too now?
I don't think he minds one more year if it comes to that, but if someone is prepared to pay $25 mill or more then he'll be sold. Will go down to the wire and then someone like Palace or Ipswich will panic and cough up. Might even start a bidding war.
@@altending 100% agree
Top stuff as always!! enjoy your holls 🍺🍺👍
I will of course be keeping an eye on the scores when away, but with a bit of luk this transfer window we could be on our way.
Thanks for posting
Glad you liked it. Getting all prepped for the start of the season
Love your videos. Enjoy your holiday good sir
Gerrin, thanks for that. Spread the word marra.
Early days for RLB's teachings but some positive signs we actually have a system emerging from the ether.
Yes a clear system of play. Dan Neil's creativity suffers for it and he does seem quite rigid, but let's see how it all goes.
Quality
Well obviously I agree with you. Spread the word marra and thank you for taking the time to write that. Much appreciated.
Thanks, a good analysis. Your channel deserves more subscribers. Le Bris had been in post for less than 3 weeks when this game was played. That being so I think the extent to which the squad have taken his ideas on board is quite encouraging. Yes, plenty of mistakes, but it’s clear they mostly know what they’re supposed to be doing, and there’s almost another three weeks to go before the season starts. I very much like what we’re trying to do out of possession, with the wingers coming narrow. Last year the centre of our midfield had a population density roughly the same as Alaska. Now all we have to do is remember to track the runners.
I agree. Sound progress and good to see Le Bris has a clear vision. As for Subscribers, I think I provide insight and teach a little about football over the vids, so it should appeal to some beyond Sunderland, but people like different things. All I can do is keep trying to make it as high quality as I'm able and hopefully people will find it. Thank you for your kind words and support though. Let's me know I am doing the right thing and should keep doing it.
The only channel I have notifications on for
Gerrin Sir. A lot of effort goes into them, hopefully always worth the time for you.
Great video as always thank you.
Zamba coming back..
I wouldn't worry about the passing stats.... 20 yard forward passes are infinitely more difficult than our usual 5 yard sidewards and backwards passes.
Good signing, was offered big renewal contract by Preston..turned them down to become an adopted mackem!
Yes, I very much like the fact he didn't come for money, he came because he wanted to.
Another great piece of analysis. Would have been great to know how his stats compare to Corry Evans's. I guess he scores more goals but how about the grunt work? Is it not worrying he can't pass as well as Neil and Ekwah ?
Yes, I could drag them up from the year before, but I don't think we'd be comparing the same players there. Evans didn't play last season so I couldn't compare him to Evans against the same opposition. It might be useful to do though.
@@altending the problem is your uploads and coverage spoil us....we expect every angle covered, haha
@@barbuseditor Got to keep me on my toes. I'll miss things and see thing differently...well worth pointing stuff out.
Noo, why’d we change the music? Was becoming associated with the account
Every season must begin with hope. It's the law of following football.
I thought you meant mood music. I get you now. The hmm, hmm, music remains. That's only for the game reviews though. The player lowdown's always have something different. I do like the hmms intro though...it's catchy and it's still here.
This feels like the sort of signing we used to make the last time we had the chevron hummel tops :) . In a good way. I think we're all depressed because of the awful Dodds. How can things fail to improve?
I must confess to getting carried away with the annual pre-season optimism, so I am in total agreement with you
@@altending Bris looks like an evil French Keano, I'm expecting early success. Either that or an evil Chris Coleman, not quite so good
@@intheclarts That's pretty funny.
Thanks for the info
A pleasure. Thank you for taking the time to post a comment. It's greatly appreciated and let's me know I'm am making stuff people want.
That was a well made video But who are you ? who made this video ? If Brown can up the anti for Ekwah and Dan Neil that will be great if he mentors Chris Rigg We don't need any Styles Dacks or journey man We need special players.. PS I hope Patrick R gets a good pre season and has the players around him to spark him ..
I made this video. You know that...you've seen a few and commented on others. I am particularly pleased with my introduction and the glitch titles and transitions. Glad you liked it and spread the word marra. Oh and you got your wish...Roberts looked on form against the Sandies.
Brilliant as ever 🎉
Happy to serve. You watch and enjoy, I feel appreciated and I'll keep making them. It's a virtuous circle we're all happy with.
Cracking analysis, as always. Like you say, hopefully his experience will help bring some of the younguns on.
Yep and the fact he's been a Captain for the last three years will mean he knows how to speak to people and motivate and advise them. Fingers crossed.
Top stuff as usual mate - really excited by Browne’s acquisition
Thanks you, I came to pretty much the same conclusion as your X thread...just a different format really. Keep up your stuff, you seem to be progressing your career nicely. I'll always support that.
@@altending Likewise mate - thankyou very much for the kind words, massively appreciated!
I was hoping you'd make this video. Good work!
I am happy to deliver Sir. Glad you liked it, must be my longest subscriber. Off on hols in a week or two, so I'll likely miss some transfer business, but I'll try to stay on top of things.
Alt! Class video as always. I think this is a great signing, he should hopefully bring a lot of leadership to the team as well.
Yes, I think it's a very sensible signing, just the sort of thing we needed a year ago. In any case - here now.
I’ve said this on a few accounts. Alan was a great servant for us and sad to see him go. But watching that just had me saying why didn’t we see more of this! That’s literally his best bits and the rest was very basic football. Hope he plays well for you just not against us 😜
Yes, I know it's a highlights reel, but it would take too long to seek out video footage for errors. I think we know we've got a decent player, not a world beater. We need solid, experienced players and a midfielder. He fits the bill nicely. I think I did point out his weaknesses in the stats section though. In any case, what kind of fans would we be to slate a perfectly decent footballer with a shitty video moaning about him. Start of the season man! We each start with optimism, it would all be too miserable if we didn't given so few of us will end up winning anything.
@@altending wasn’t having a pop i was just saying that’s more or less all he did for us last season. And like i said i hope he does well for you. Of course you won’t put bad clips in there why would you haha.
i notice browne has an excellent almost injury free record over the last 10 years, lets see if the safc injury gods leave him alone. it's about time they gave us a break...
Don't say 'break' please.
Great vid Trenchy. Ha'way the data! Nice to see Sunderland AFC change their tact with signings, and sign someone over 21. I am all for the kids and youth, but they need nurtured, and to have that experience in there to assist. Browne will provide that. Hopefully a few more in this mould to come through, and get some of the youth sent out on loan to lower championship/L1 teams to develop.
Where does the data come from
@@johnmurray5573 I get that form using the advanced comparison application on FB ref. You can add/subtract players on the left, but you have to be careful comparing similar years and not comparing full career stats to someone who has one season. And I am unsure about comparing different years. This is why Cory Evans doesn't figure in the data I presented. He barely played last season and that is a comparison of the three playing the same season. It isn't working atm...but I'll post a link to the comparison I did and you can mess about with it and look yourself. I'm sure you might spot some things I didn't or view some other things differently.
Yes, first time I've been able to do that data comparison with our players to evaluate if it's a good signing. I think it worked well to demonstrate some points. He seems to be a solid, sensible signing. I have of course, jinxed him by referring to his unblemished decade long injury record.
🔥
Great bit of business by us. Would love one or 2 more irish lads to be signed tbh
Yes, top business. Very sensible signing.
Us: "Who is he??" Alt Ending:" Hold my beer!' A 6am upload full of the stats? Nice one Alt!! Do you not sleep man?
Not really fella...went to bed at 7am after finishing that. It take about an hour to make a minute of video, but there's the research and scripting before that. Obviously it's a generous portrayal. I have often thought of doing worst reviews with clips of all their own goals or red cards and cock ups, but it would take an age to seek it all out, but it might be fun to do. Thanks anyway and I reckon Browne will be a solid, useful signing for us.
Yes, I've ben saying we're very close to being a very good side. As you say, a striker who can score an the picture changes completely.
You will me with Optimism but...
It wouldn't be Sunderland if there wasn't a but.
@@altending I did mean "fill me." Yes, that is very true. I am looking forward to reading your comments on our progress this year. Thank you.
