before kick off i thought a 3 v 2 defeat would have been decent result. But to be winning in an important game to lose 3 v 2 im dissapointed more than i expected.
i thought we were quite jammy at times in the game. the stadium wasnt exactly very full, so their fans didnt really think it was a game to burst a gut to watch.
on counter we are dangerous with jota and kyogo movement and tricks
But we just cant defend very well imo.
They didnt really try very hard till it was 2 1 against them
Hart ad quite few very good saves
couple of jammy ones too
Bitton gets a lot of abuse, for me he is our only midfielder who regularly takes up positions that support defensive outs
i really cant see what turnbull offers other than 1 in 4 decent passes when his pass is good its ery good but most of the time he isnt marking anyone isnt taking up good supporting positions and tries extra adventurous passes that ultimately fail more often than complete
decent player but for me bitton is miles better team player and even he aint all that hot at times
didnt understand timing of subs considering that game was a good chance to progress
Ange got subs badly wreong
And the poor defensive set up worries me against good players
we do look better than last year but tactically really naive especially when we have a lead.
it could easily have been a lot worse result if they had been fully fired up with big crowd but i think they thought it would be cakewalk after 4 nil away win
really dissapointing to lose a lead with goals we ultimately conceded
they are a top teamm
so its not a terrible result
just not a great result from another winning position
