Got better as the half went on but just didn’t have that precision and incisiveness when we had the ball. Not much interplay between our midfield 3, with Madders shouldering most of the load; does make me wonder if the Biss-Sarr-Madders combo works best for us, with Bentancur spelling Madders. Deki and Werner largely ineffective while Richy needed to make more of the ball.
 
I was always worried about Bentancur as a 6. Said it all season when people said he'd be perfect there. His Villa performance did somewhat sway me, but since then he's just been how I imagined he'd be.

He's not particularly press resistant like a Bissouma. And his strengths lay in his pressing which is basically negated as a 6.

He should be competing with Sarr as that 8 and right now Sarr is so far ahead.

Bissouma and Son need to be on ASAP.

Can the happy clappers start predicting we lose, don’t score or concede as nothing makes me more sure of losses than when I see ‘not worried we’ve got this’ before and during a game.
 
I'd bring on Son for Werner, Johnson for Kulu, and Biss for Bentancur...

That might do summit!

*EDIT: Called it!

We don't have that one or two experienced players that can slow the game when needed and regroup. We seem to leak goals because we always want to just run. Most goals on the counter or because of our errors.
