In relation to our midfield there’s a good video by FourFourTwo which show why we’ve struggled in recent games. Basically teams play narrow against us clogging up the midfield which gives us no space to crate our little triangles. Worth a watch. Sorry don’t have the link.
My two cents worth on that game.
Bayern should have won that game. They had 3 opportunities in the first half to put a man in on goal and messed them up with a woeful pass.
Kane gat an assist but I didn’t think he had a great game. His passing was off at times and he should have done better...
Personally I don’t get the hype about Mbappe. He’s got an impressive burst of pace and has a powerful shot but technically he’s nothing special and hasn’t got a great all round game.
Have to raise one of my favorite hobby horses; a man in the post would have stopped that goal. Do not understand why that went out of fashion but then I don’t understand or agree with how modern teams defend corners.
The thing is we scouted these players, in the case of Eze quite extensively, but never pulled the trigger. At the time people said they wouldn’t have got the game time with us that they did at Palace so it would have been a waste of resources. What we could have done is bought them back then and...
That’s true but the Law of the Bogey Team comes into play. Newcastle, Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool are bogey teams of ours especially away from home( 1 win in 30 at Stamford Bridge, similar at Arsenal and Anfield) but we are ManC’s bogey team in recent years so beating them would not be a real...
It’s not so much that Kulusevski has no pace it is that he plays on the right yet refuses to use his right foot to put in early crosses. He then takes an eternity cutting in and deciding what he’s going to do next.
Not saying we would have gota result but basically the starting line up choice cost us the game. Emerson was at fault for two goals- the first, which is always the most important, was criminal negligence to ignore Salah behind him. Johnson Son and Kulusevski as a front 3 is and always has been...
Begs the question why that front 3 didn’t start the game? Johnson’s better in the right, Son is not a CF and is better from the left and Richarlison is a CF who likes playing against Liverpool?
