More self inflicted problems undermining the good bits. Smith should be bringing Davis on to hold the ball up when we are being pushed back. He also needs to get them fitter and able to play for the full 90 minutes. He is looking very poor with his in-game management this season. He needs to buck his ideas up.
A lot of people wanted Trez starting today. Have to admit I'm completely missing what he's offering us at the moment, apart from feigning injury and today, running after the ref waving for a card and getting himself booked. Yep, Taylor was poor today, it's just a pity the guy bought to replace him appears to made of the same stuff as Lansbury. Two points from Bournemouth, West Ham and Burnley at home doesn't bode well,

I do not question his desire, but I do question his nous, which is surprising. If the attack is going to run through him, he needs to make better decisions with the ball. On a couple of occasions, he chose to shoot rather than make the easy and proper pass to the open man. Again, he was not the main proble, but given the frequency of time he has on the ball, it is crucial that he improves quickly.Grealish runs laterally with the ball far too much, instead of releasing it quickly. Supposed to be on the left wing but dropped in front of the centre halves to pick up the ball at times. A lot of what he does seems self indulgent, taking five touches when one or two would do. Big moment in second half and dreadful shot over the bar. Agree with this to an extent, but my issue is that he's passing up opportunities to drive forward into the box to either shoot from closer range or win a penalty. Grealish isn't the problem - in my eyes he had another 7/10 performance. I'm starting to think he's becoming under-appreciated somewhat. Some goals/assists in some winning performances are all thats missing.

For the past few hours I thought McGinns celebration was a heart and point towards the Holte , just cottoned on what it actually was. What a bloke!
Did the VAR sign and pointed at the ref.
