Probably because if it goes to trippier at left back all he’ll do is control it, close off his body and have to pass it back to rice or guehi as he seems unable to somehow open up and use his left to go down the line - albeit he also never has an option there cos foden has drifted inside to play at 10 again. That whole left hand side is a mess and not really either players fault as neither of them want to be out there.
Trippier has rarely had an option going forward since, you you said, Foden has drifted inside and no one has covered the hole he's created. Think Foden had four shots last night - all from inside right ....
I'd live to see both on the pitch. Obvs we all know about Gordon and how good he is for us but Palmer is also pure class if you ask me. Great player. They've both got good mentality also. I think it's cool Palmer had the belief to say no chance I'm staying here picking up scraps of game time and waiting my chance, I'm moving somewhere where I'll be the main man.
Apparently there was a heated argument between Walker and Trippier yesterday. Foden apparently was the peacemaker.
The squad is okay. Not great. Main problem is team selection and playing… The two main problems are team selection, playing players out of position and subst….okay, the three main problems Right, the problem is Southgate.
