It’s a smart finish but hardly deserved. Notable that it came from a free kick we got when a player finally started to try and do something. When things aren’t going your way you have to try and take players on and at least try and get a foul out of it. Looks like it might be disallowed anyway. VdV pulling shirts, silly stuff.
No goal in the end but that’s the template. We’re in the mud and trying to be so direct that it’s making the whole team seem disconnected. Just run at them and try and commit players.
All the fouls that get committed at those situations and we get called on one. But it was a clear pull on the players jersey which probably did prevent him reaching the ball.... And now he's losing his head.
Simons and Kudus coming on. Although tbh they could replace this shower with random members of the crowd and it would be an improvement.
Shambolic from front to back really. That sequence of play sums the whole evening up. Going home with our tails rightfully between our legs at this rate.
