If you can peel your eyes away from our exciting wide players when they’ve got the ball, focus on our players in the box and their movement. Depressing stuff.
I know what you are saying but we have no consistency of delivery. We don’t have triggers for movement.
A few mins ago the ball was laid back to Bruno to cross. Instead of whipping it in first time he takes another touch. De Bruyne whips it in first time as does TAA. Strikers need to be able to know the ball is coming to time a run.
Down the left you have Garnacho who always makes a couple attempts at beating his man both allowing defenders to recover and meaning strikers have already made their movement and had to reset.
We need to have attacking plays that are relied on and consistent. Strikers need to be making the same runs every game and their teammates play passes and crosses for that movement. At the moment we just have to react to each other.
