The offside rule is a joke. The play that went on could have led to a desperate tackle and injury etc.
Son was poor against Newcastle but got the tap-in from Kane. Poor again today. Hoping he’s not hitting that regular bad patch he gets once or twice a season. Looks really laboured.
That is certainly an issue, because our attacks broadly speaking are one of two moves i.) The CBs play it up to Hojbjerg/Skipp, but the players ahead are static or, in Kane's case, dropping too deep so the next phase is recycling the ball ii.) The FBs move up with the ball, so the central players move up with the ball to receive it All it takes is a FB to have an off day, or we play the Tanganga/Davies pairing at FB, and our play devolves to just the first version
On the one hand, we need a sub On the other hand, Lo Celso aside, our bench screams "More of the same"
