Let's hope Ralph changes a few things at the back. They have us totally sussed. But we are still in it
Poor first half and as others have said, we're lucky to be still in it. Good opportunity for Ralph to work his half time magic? Would like to see Diallo get some minutes second half.
I'm a bit annoyed with Theo's positional play, KWP has had no cover on our right. Wouldn't mind Diallo on for him and play JWP on the right.
He’s been anonymous so far really, allowing Chilwell to get forward way too much. Should just be sat on him all second half
I think this will be an ongoing debate through the season. I don't really think he has the legs to play out wide now, like he used to at Arsenal. That's why they offloaded him and Everton tried him unsuccessfully in the same role. Play him just behind Ings and Adams in a more traditional '10' role and we will get more out of him but as you say, it puts huge pressure on KWP. The answer is he either still needs to provide cover occasionally or - better still - get JWP to provide the defensive cover for Kyle.
Bednarek a bit disappointing for me in the first half - looks leggy as ****. Hopefully sharpen up in the second.
