We are not very good today. We won't get more than a solid platform from our back three today, so if we want control of that midfield then I guess we need to drop a forward (Son) and bring on a midfielder. Emerson has been a mixed bag today. Spence is being given the new boy treatment and having to bide his time, but there have been moments today where he would've done a lot more than Emerson.

Teams worked out how to play us system needs changing. If you play wbs they need to be able to play as them and Emerson can’t means were so predictable

Our midfield isn't good enough for where we want to be, really need a high level player in there who can make things happen. Conte also needs to show that he can be more flexible and change the formation to suit the opposition because this is the second week running that two in the midfield isn't working against a much more competent three.

Davison giving Conte a selection headache for when Romero returns
No Romero comes straight back in obviously. We’re really lacking quality coming out of the back.

Fortunately we’re almost always better in the second half under Conte because that was awful.

This is the pattern every single time we come up against a team that can play football. I don't understand why we don't put an additional body in midfield. But this has been the case since day one with Conte, so I don't expect it to change.

I can't believe we didn't sign a RWB. Emerson gets put in good positions 15 times a game and makes something happen once if he's lucky. It's an incredible waste of possible attacks.

Maybe we knew they'd be effective at containing us and were saving energy for second half lol

Let's hope so

In situations like this it would help if one of the midfielders can carry the ball.
a modric type player would be perfect for us we need someone who can control the tempo and bring some fluidity to our midfield and attacking play

wolves a top striker away from being a very formidable outfit. Could easily see them/Newcastle in the shout for top 6 if it gels for them

The fact that we have been unable to upgrade and find an elite LCB, an upgrade on RWB, and another creative midfielder is a dismal failure.

We look like such an average side.

Conte just rigidly sticks to the system even though us fans can see before the game that the opposition will do a number on us in midfield and tactically.

We've spent money on depth but we haven't upgraded the first 11 at all.

Bissouma, Richi and Doherty should come on at HT for PEH (already on a booking), Son and Royal.

I can’t believe people cannot see the issues Royal causes us in attack.

I can see Lenglet being brought on quite soon.

He’s meant to be good at the long balls, right?
