McGinn’s inability to pass or shoot is remarkable.

Going forward we look ok

So stop going back bailey

Right.  Pretty sure Gerrard isn’t telling him to do that either.

That's really not how it works. When players are constantly turning back and playing it safe there's 2 'normal' causes:

They've bveen given shit for giving the bal laway too often and and playing safe.
They're waiting for movement and, when it doesn't happen, they recycle possession.

I suspect both are true of Bailey right now.

On his weak foot, tight angle he decided to shoot with Ings in the middle. Fuck me
