Odd thread I know. It might stop here and disappear off the page by tonight….
Yesterday we watered the pitch so much before the game that water was visibly fountaining off the ball and it was holding up while the players were running with it. This was particularly noticeable in the first fifteen minutes and badly effected the closer dribblers like Dembele and Lowe with the ball sticking under their feet. It also effected control (Solanke) on a couple occasions with the ball zipping off the pitch onto his shins…
Did anyone else notice this. I noticed it the other week when we watered at half time while it was raining.
