5-4-1 in your own third leads to a shit football game. I do hope they get absolutely fuck all from this.

Unless Gvardiol will be moved into CB and turn into a world beater in that position, he's pretty much the most unexciting signing in forever.

I almost rather see Gomes on the left (in games like this one). He can't defend at all, but at least he has some creative instincts and end product.

He actually used the term 'waste of space'?

Souness is right on that 70% 0f the time.
Well taken goal, but he needs to take a grip of this game and open them up a bit, run at them rather than pass across them. Walker was poor in that first half, couldn't cross , can't shoot and his passing is average, He is occupying Silva's space in front of goal, yet hasn't the skill to do anything with it .

not enough impact from Gvardiol, he should be far more of a threat on the left- mistake follows mistake atm. Lewis & Foden getting shrugged off theball too easily as well. Still, good goal from Jack and some excellent earlier chances created. Nunes on for Rico before long I reckon.

They are playing a back line of seven and with three just beyond them. What are you all expecting to happen?
Everything has to be inch perfect to get through - or a shot from distance.

Put Rico at Right back. Pull Walker off and stick Nunes in the centre
