Soloman and Lo Celso please…
Yep, firing blanks. This would be ok but as its a season since they were on form, its a worry.Players still lack proper fitness, Son and Deki not good fits for the system unfortunately. They need to stay wide and be able to beat defenders 1v1. Skipp seems to have one move, pass to Kulusevski and move in his space. Obviously things can't look perfect so soon and we had to sub our best defender, plus lost top 2 striker in the history of the club. It will look better with Perisic, Solomon and Lo Celso.
The defense just needs time and games to gel. Two new players in the summer one's first game today then losing Romero early. Just need to be patient with it.There should be but 11 was enough. A lot of work to be done on our defending. Especially if we are gonna be as open as this.
As others said the wingers aren't a great fit for this way of playing. Hopefully Ange can rip into them.
This is the problem with the new discipline initiative. Allows referees ego to take over and make the game all about them. The best refs allow the focus to be on the game.This ref is absolutely shocking.
Ange won’t change mate not going to happen.Need to ditch the high line for the second half. Until the back 4 become comfortable with each other it’s suicidal. If it persists in the second half we just need to hope our front 3 wake up and we outscore Brentford
What the fuck lol. If that’s good defending we will never agree on anything. They should’ve easily had a thirdWe haven't defended that badly. The high line is dangerous but it was the softest penalty you'll ever see and it'll be the last one like that you'll see this season. And they were lucky with their second goal. We've largely defended well I think
Mate we gifted them both of their goals.Lucky to go into the break even if we're honest. Brentford have been better in every department.
But some promising patterns of play, a few decent performances by new faces. Fully expecting a better performance in second half.
