I don’t think it’s even just tho two. I think even Gio in the 10 role would be dropping deeper then Kulu has and trying to get on the ball. Issue isn’t Bentancur. It’s PEH being a little limited and Kulu sitting too high up the pitch and not picking his passes creatively. Any of Sarr, Biss, Maddison and Gio could all be helpful here.Think we miss the power of Biss & Sarr in a game like this. Bentancur, PEH & Kulu all good players in their own right but don’t have that explosive power to get by City and aside from Bentancur neither PEH or Kulu’s passing is on a Maddison’s level to split them apart and missing Son’s threat and quality in behind them.
This is tough right now but we’ve weathered their storm well so far.
