Midfield has to do more already.

We need more fucking bodies in midfield. We're still to hasty through the middle, and don't have enough options in the midfield. It's an obvious problem with a simple solution.

Yeah, I think it is a tactical point really. You see one of the two strikers hanging around uselessly on the edge of the area while the midfield struggles to find shorter options and ends up whacking it in the direction of the useless striker - and losing the ball. Solution? Three in midfield, ONE main striker.

Fuck was that Albrighton!? Gabby did great, and then just bollocksed by Marc. With Benteke in there, we need to get it in there when we can.

We really lack a physical presence in midfield and just get bumped off the ball.

The other issue with Albrighton - gives away so many fouls. Prefer Bannan in the side as he at least has passing ability.

Delph is a passenger without the ball isn't he! No where near a man most of the time.

When they get the ball they have no options because there aren't enough players in the midfield.

4-4-2 is dead. Give it up, Paul, please, for God's sake, give it up.
