Disagree. Tanguy stands right in font of Kimmich, a single body feint and he's free and scores. Watch it again.

You watch it again, look at the quality of his touches and the finish. If you think Ndombele could have got to that then you don't underatsnd football.

There doesn't need to be a scapegoat everytime we concede ffs.

Sissoko and Ndombele are basically playing the same position. Winks hasnt been assured on the ball. This is just a mess.

I get annoyed when it's just labelled a defence or midfield issue.

The issue is with the whole team defensively, what we are doing as a whole unit especially if an initial press fails, and the shape/formation they're being tasked with.

If central midfielders are tasked to repeatedly track from side to side out to fullbacks and then back across again, they're going to tire and eventually gaps will open up - even if our guys do everything perfectly, good football teams will manipulate and work an extra man.


To blame one or two components is too simplistic.

These are just some of the things that are meant when saying midfield/defence though. It's obviously not as simple as 'just a defence' or 'just a midfield' issue.

Rose gets absolutely mullered out of it and it's not a foul? Fuck me this referee is a joke
