Completely agree and I'm a little frustrated others aren't seeing it.There was nothing wrong with the system we played today. Lamela, whilst he played well enough, was so, so wasteful in the final third. Put Lo Celso or Ndombele there and it’s a different story. Likewise, if Kane actually bothered to play today, I honestly think we would’ve been 2/3-0 up in this match. We looked comfortable for a large chunk of the game.
Numerous occasions we had a great break on only for a player to lack the sharpness to move it into the right space.
United defended poorly and had that been Bayern they'd have won with a clear difference.
Maguire was getting real tight to Kane and pressing high, if Kane had have had match sharpness I'm certain he'd have exploited it more and Lindelhof was all over the place.
Bergwijn' s goal was a prime example of the errors that were there. Unfortunately we lacked the sharpness and options to take advantage.
