“Playing a shit boring team. Expecting a shit and boring match.”
I would love to argue against this point.... but I can’t, we have been a tough watch since Anfield away last January.
Would broadly agree, but there have been smatterings of good play in 2020.
We didn't beat Spurs, Wolves & Chelsea without playing some nice stuff.
We were also excellent away at Man City, just after Liverpool. We deserved something from that game.
There have been spells this season where we've looked our old selves; 1st half v Fulham, 2nd half v Wolves - but found lacking in the opposition's box.
I'm not sure whether what remains of last seasons players (after injuries) has enough to stop the rot.
I think if we're to survive this we need either Oli Burke to surprise us all, or Rhian Brewster to hit the ground running.
Or maybe even a slight change in style with Ampadu coming into midfield, or Bogle & Lowe turning out to be great attacking threats from wide.
We look a bit impotent & stale. Things need freshening. I'd give all of the new boys their shot over these next few games. Sure, it's going to be tough to see their full potential against the big boys, but we might get flashes. We need the extra pace & mobility if we're going to get something on the counter .
