They’re going to dominate possession so it’s frustrating that we don’t have any pace in wide areas to hit them on the break. Ekitike is the only one but he’s more likely to link play than run in behind.
He made better decisions early in the season. Probably an element of trying to do too much because Mo and Gakpo aren’t firing.
He’s a real handful for defenders though.
Great 2nd half. The ball to Mo in the build up to the Gravenberch goal was brilliant. Several times it looked like we'd played into a dead end and he found someone in space.
Poor not to score 1st half though.
Great performance. It's been a while since we've played with that intensity. Good to know we still have it in us and frustrating that we rarely show it. Could have score 8 or 9.
Galatasaray at home in the knockouts should be a walkover but the pessimism says everything about where this team is right now.
Really hope we show up.
I like that starting XI. It's the gameplan I'm dreading.
