I don't think past the 11 it's awful. But if you take out 2/3 of the forwards then you lack a lot of creativity. A midfield of Gini Hendo can won't offer much. You need Salah Mane Cout to be that creativity up top. If you take 2/3 of them out the side then it becomes poorer of course but it just becomes a more workmanlike side rather than an exciting one.
The thing is i think we have an 11 that can compete but the front 4 must play to make that so. Our strength is there. As you look at the back line and 2 cms and keeper NONE are players chelsea, city or spurs would be wanting. We needed vvd and kieta imo. They would have hugely improved the first 11. Matip and vvd cbs.... kieta and coutinho at cm... taa develiped at rb... why the follow on year a top top strong cm for no 6 is all thats needed for first team..
Penalty- firmino slots it home. We've looked good so far ..passing it nicely, creating chances for Origi to miss...high press.
Ah ****, he was a nailed on point maker. Perhaps suggests he won't be on the pitch as much if we've replaced a pretty reliable pen taker
Honestly think he's done. Always going to happen no matter how much of a pro. He relies on effort and the body will find it harder and harder to give it to him
