Starting to think Poch sees no connection between the holding players and the rest of our attackers. It's almost as if he sees them as separate entities just there to shield the back four. Surely if he wanted the midfield to play incisive passes then he wouldn't have these two in there. It's just bizarre.I just don't fucking understand the Sissoko thing at all, he must be fucking Maradona in training to get picked for games, and Sissoko and Dier together is terrible. There's no metronomic presence in there to keep things ticking, even in an unadventurous way, just at all. Dier and Sissoko hide from our defenders when trying to play out and Sissoko hides from the attackers when we are up their end. He's constantly just parking himself next to one of there defenders, and god forbid the ball finds it's way to him, he treats it like it's like a fucking grenade.
Dier's passing is so rudimentary. It's just baffling that we've got Wanyama and Winks on the bench but we get these two is CM.
Poch has to do something at HT, watching these two fucking amble about like insipid turtles is Chinese water torture.
