Not just coached in general techniques, but coached specific techniques for a specific opponent. They build up whole dossiers on players, what sets them off, what doesn't work, what does work.Anderson is a midget and lightweight compared to Cripps....Dusty would have just pushed him over with ease, ditto the Bont, Fyfe etc...if Cripps cant impose himself then the midfield/stoppage coach needs to get more inventive and get his teammates more involved and plan to free him up more.
Also, as fans watching, we must not assume Cripps holding someone isn't part of the plan. I know that seems hard to believe, but it's possible.
