Yeah, but looking what he's got available to him, I'm not sure who he could've picked to improve it much.
Townsend should be on instead of one of the front two, but then what?
Maybe five at the back and use the wingbacks for creativity? Ayew off Batshuayi? **** knows. It's a mess.

Drop one of the two oafs up front, Eze behind the oaf you leave on, Mitchell at left-back and push Van Aanholt forward. Townsend is mediocre but better than Ayew.

They’ve brought in this Mateta bloke who is just another Benteke/Batshuayi and can’t get in over either.

He tried the Mitchell/van Aanholt thing against Leeds and they got battered.
I think that Milivojevic and Riedeweld as a midfield pairing just kills it.
Having said that, their alternatives aren't much more creative, even when they're fit.
