we lose this if we don't change shape, stubborn rubbish from poch if he's happy with this, we literally get the ball pass it round at no pace at all, have no movement and nearly every player is in the same square of grass. utter rubbish AVB would be proud.

Come on people have more faith. Poch has to change things. We’ll see better in the second half.

Not the best half of football. Sanchez looks ropey today as does Rose, Sissoko, Lamela, Kane and sadly N'Dombele. Watching him he doesn't seem to run much does he?

Moura and Lamela have been very poor. Ndombele looks out on his legs already, shame as looks one of the most likely to break down the midfield

Don't know how sanchez got the call over verts. Yes he's faster but positioning makes all the difference

KWP is the best player of ours.

I would put Eriksen in instead of Sissoko/Winks
Need to keep Winks on if we need a goal. Eriksen on for Sissoko and play a 4231 and stretch the bastards. A diamond is piss easy to defend against if you’re playing counterattacking football

those who say winks is good is having a laugh, what is he good at???
Shriking responsibility, thats what hes good at, he only passes back to the defenders even when no one was near him, the centra defenders are making all the foward passes, inesta my arse, more like coward, useless coward
He's playing deepest of the three, therefore he can't just shirk his defensive position and burst forward. He's trying to start the moves but our lack of movement is dreadful

you see how fortunate we've been with the combo of Jan + Toby when you see the build-up play of Sanchez. Nowhere near their level in that aspect of the game...

We don't look dangerous playing the diamond, so static. Reliant on Rose and KWP to provide width and their delivery isn't the best

As long as Poch persists with the diamond, we'll look like this against most teams who sit deep. Kane doesn't look happy playing with a strike partner either!
