Been a couple of occasions that have really highlighted the lack of width we have. Twice a ball was played into space on the left and Davies was either too slow to get to it or was too slow when he received it. As much as we'd like to think we'd be fine without Rose, we really wouldn't be.

You do realise that a burst of acceleration can help playing through teams.

It's not just the pass, it's quick movement that can draw the space.

Of course, that's true, but Walker and Rose were involved in countless games that played out like this one is. We're going to win this game. Everyone needs to chill the fuck out. Neither Rose, nor Walker are known for taking men on. They rarely did. I think peoples memories are skewed on this.

Just got to be patient I think. They're going to stay solid so we've just go to keep wearing them down.

At least Dier looks like he's switched his brain on today...

This is quiet boring to watch. Dembele and Dier is so very wrong in games like these. I wan't a proper 8, Dembele is just not doing enough in games like these - for me.

Hell Dembele could play the 6 DM alone in these games.

I'm chilled and still think we'll win. I just think we're not as threatening without them, simple as that.

Going to be one of those days where Burnley get a block in on everything.

Another season so slow out of the blocks. Pedestrian, lackadaisical, we need our defence to run with the ball, not just pass it sideways. We're so back heavy. Looking at Liverpool playing they have such a dynamic attack
