good win but felt we couldve got the third if we attacked, that last 10 was like nuno
We could've got that with Son, but he was shite. In principle I tought the subs worked, he used Skipp and Winks to run at the defenders and press them and it worked, they were very limited and we got a very good chance Son missed by not controling the ball. Also at least other 2 counter were killed by Son. But when Skipp went off we were very shite.
 
They aren't getting all their chances on set pieces though, aren't the best set piece team in the league and that is no excuse even if they were.
I said set pieces or crossing positions earlier. Every cross/corner was the perfect delivery and they set up to create chances from it. Second half and particularly last 20 mins we were defensively solid.
 
Have to wonder how many of these guys have lingering COVID impacts the way we started to fade in the second half. More running than any other PL team since Conte took over + COVID outbreak. Plausible if not likely.
