Manchester City video analyst, Carles Planchart, has revealed how they exploited a weakness in Jorginho’s game to help them toward a 2-0 victory in the Community Shield.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Pep Guardiola’s side overcome Chelsea in English football’s curtain raiser at Wembley in August and during the recent Congress of Performance Analysis in Madrid, it was suggested that City seeked to exploit Jorginho ‘jumping’ from his deep-lying midfield position, leaving space behind him.<\/p>\n

Have City exposed Jorginho’s biggest flaw? Five key things to know…<\/strong><\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. Man City beat Chelsea 2-0 in the Community Shield at the start of this season.<\/li>\n
  2. One of City’s top summer targets, Jorginho, was in the Chelsea line-up that day.<\/li>\n
  3. City’s video analyst, Carles Planchart, highlighted the Italian’s habit of ‘jumping’ out of position at a recent Congress of Performance Analysis.<\/li>\n
  4. The Citizens exploited this for their opening goal, taking Jorginho out of the game with just one vertical pass.<\/li>\n
  5. Guardiola was full of praise for Jorginho’s press, though, following February’s League Cup final meeting between City and Chelsea.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    City took advantage of this for their opening goal, with Jorginho’s aggresively high positioning allowing Aymeric Laporte to bypass the entire Chelsea midfield with just one vertical pass, giving the likes of Berardo Silva, Phil Foden and Aguero a free run at Maurizio Sarri’s defence.<\/p>\n
