We’re top of the league cause our defence was immense and we were scoring enough from set pieces. But teams are playing through us far more easily these days, and we’re giving up plenty of chances when pressed. Our open play attack has been woeful most of the season

Could be a red from the force of that challenge not dogso

Could be a red even without DOGSO from the force of that

We weren’t good, and given how everyone else seems to be able to score 2-3 against them it’s concerning that we created absolutely nothing

And not just a tough game but repeatedly giving the ball away under limited pressure. Letting them go back to front far to easily

Or Rice at the 6 and play Ode and Eze at the 8’s. We have the man advantage and should try to dominate possession. Mosquera off for White and Calafiori for MLS, too.

It was for sure, but I do think the onus is on us to go to Liverpool and take points off of them if we want to win the league

It’s also incredibly dull to watch. Just so much passing around the back, Raya standing on the ball and then booting it to City. Last 15 was better but the first 30 minutes was awful

Or they might start playing. This is one of the reasons I found our approach at Liverpool frustrating, can’t be relying on other teams to take the points off them

Think we definitely waited too long. Should have made the changes to Martinelli and Merino at least 10 min earlier imo
