Crossing has been poor as has our decision making once we get into good positions. Lost the ball a few times in our half as well. Some good performances though from MADDs (best player by a mile), berg and Spence. How Ange doesn’t rate MADDs as much as the others is beyond me.
He doesn't rate him because he's stupid. We play a Lot better with Madders because he drops deep to receive the ball, probably Ange doesn't like that, but that give us and extra midfielders and an extra option for defenders. For Ange he should be planted in the final third.
 
Madison and Spence a plus . I’d still love to see Spence on the right where he would be much more comfortable and would push Garnacho back . Front 3 have been poor . Kulu cannot play in that position , if anything he is becoming a liability , all he does is give full backs a piggy back. Big half for Ange cos he has no excuses , we up the tempo and we win this and we’ve got a bench to use .
 
The great thing about having our players back is that the football will be different....

Two teams low on confidence sitting 14/15th.

We’ve certainly showed more enthusiasm to play football than we have in our previous 3-4 games. 67% of the ball.

Maddison being back makes such a difference and we finally get to see two proper 8’s together.

Bentancur as the pivot is horrendous though, he’s like a turtle in a windsock when they attack, not showing enough when we are playing out.

We really need two wide forwards who can take players on and get in behind. Every time the ball goes to Son o Kulusevski they just stop and turn backwards, even when 1 v 1. Be nice to see Oddobert and Moore second half, but you just know Ange will put fucking Johnson on first.
