It was obvious we would struggle in midfield with this lineup.

They are all over us, not a single player wants the ball

This is why I wanted Lo Celso or Eriksen to start, we have 0 creativity

When I saw this lineup I thought we would sit deep and hit them on the counter attack with Son & Lucas but I don’t know what we’re doing
Wrong lineup against the better teams we end up with no control in midfield

There is no way that now a second consecutive manager sends these players out there for them to not show the square route of fuck all for nearly 20 minutes of football. What the fuck happens when they leave the dressing room and get onto the pitch.

Aurier is a liability anywhere near our box.

Lucas contributes nothing unless he's scoring.

Nothing new that our right side is hopeless.

I understand we aren't going to be possession based like we were under Poch but it wouldn't hurt to string a pass together.

Barely managed sustained pressure in any game under Jose
we haven't really been a possession team for over 12 months, most of our possession was passing it round back and square. we lost our identity and don't or refuse to use clever technical players in the middle of the part, we have power and strength but little else but I blame than on poch for his poor squad building, total lack of balance

apart from long balls from the back, our front 4 are getting no service from midfield, i hope Ndombele is fit enough to play a half, if not pls bring on Lo celso Jose

I really can’t understand why Ndombele is on the bench. We need grit and creativity. TN & GLC would be ideal.

I would take Moura off and strengthen the midfield

Sissoko cannot play central midfield in a midfield two. He doesn't offer enough defensively (he constantly leaves his team mate exposed due to poor defensive positioning and a gung ho chase after the ball rather than be disciplined mentality) and he isn't creative. I'd have him off sooner rather than later and put N'Dombele in there alongside Dier.
