Poor corners, poor freekicks, no ideas or movement on throw-ins, no ideas or movement in the final third.
So we have to rely on getting in behind and turning defenders and putting the shitters up 'em, which Kyle - and rose, to a large degree, but has done ok today - are reluctant to do, as we inevitable dry up when we go central with our lack of movement and ideas.
Kyle goes round the back for the first time and we nearly score and then soon after we get a pen after the lift that gave us.
I'm super curious to know what poch is instructing Walker to do...is he asking him to drive to the line and he's not complying? If he isn't asking him to take on 1v1s then that is a problem as we are then relying on Rose who also cuts back/in too often (though to a lesser extent).
If we are not creative enough to go through the middle, yet not bold enough to get behind them in the corners and threaten with balls into/across the danger zone, where does Poch think our goals are coming from???
Wishful thinking will not do it.
We got a pen today and we're ahead, but this game isn't over at all.
This is how I see it:
We either press like crazy and discombobulate teams and then capitalise or get behind them at every opportunity and maximise chances in the kill-zone until we crack it.
A while ago I said we needed Isco and Teilemans to complete our squad; I still think that. But poch also has to show common sense and instinct for what's not working and what does/is/can and maximise our chances in the final third; not just banging away at what doesn't work hoping something will magically click.
Anyway, I'm grateful for the goal and hope we do these xxxxs.
Oh, and to our great credit they have hardly have a sniff at our goal.

While facing an FA charge too. Its like the end of his reign at Chelsea. He has completely lost it.

We are furiously taking multiple touches and passing it side to side.
Surely they are going to crumble
