Lumping the ball into the box when our only presence is about 5'10" is not likely to work.

Targett lucky not to be booked there, don't understand why we haven't moved AEG that side. He's better on the left anyway.

How much would Sarr cost?

I was surprised when his name was mentioned previously and people turned their noses up.

Thought Marvelous might have a go, then. Still, finally some signs of life.

We've been fucking awful to put it mildly.

Not pressing well up top, not controlling the midfield, no one putting their foot on the ball and generally look devoid of ideas.

Not surprising, this team is no better than the non Grealish teams we were putting out last season.
Even Sheffield Utd beat us and Watford are better than them.

They're defending in depth and hitting us on the break down our left hand side

Targett's getting no support - Marv and McGinn are having to do too much.

Young, Buendia and Anwar have hardly done anything positive yet. Trying to force the ball through from 35yds out into their box without success.

4-2-3-1 v 4-5-1

Change of shape required?
