That's why I put "Still lacking proper balance."
Its not the starting defensive line that has killed us though is it ?
Its the fact we've dropped deeper and deeper to try and protect what we had.
First twenty minutes we were holding a decent defensive line with two or three players pressing in the Arsenal half. Last fifteen minutes we had no one pressing and were happy to let arsenal have the ball until they entered our half.
Start of the second half we were happy to let them have the ball in our half until they approached the 18 yarder.
We need to push out and stop dropping so deep and press them high up the pitch.
