What I find disappointing a lot is that we seem to get the ball into promising positions in the final 3rd and then just think that’s good enough, and recycle. I get keeping the ball is good but it wouldn’t hurt to get the ball in the box a bit more.
Wouldn't it be nice if Bryan Gil was available for instances where, to pick an example out of thin air, Sonny looks in desperate need for a rest?
Looks like one of them if we don’t score first we’re ****ed kind of games. If they score first they will shut up shop and we will be done for. must score first
I'm starting to think that it's not the days off that's the problem, I'm starting to think that we just hate playing midweek games
We just don’t seem to be able to take those half chances and get shots away, or make them into more dangerous chances. Only the one shot so far?
Doesn’t help we keep giving the ball away either, think just about every player’s done it so far. Really, really poor.
Yeah it’s far too pedestrian. Højbjerg is an inconsistent passer and Bentancur doesn’t move enough off the ball when he’s further up the pitch, which doesn’t help. But overall it’s a mentality or tactical issue rather than a technical one, I feel.
