I’m not convinced about the ‘being positive about two clean sheets’ either.
We are still allowing the opposition to run at us and create chances.
We don’t look steady at the back and any clean sheet at the minute is more of a case of the opposition not taking their chances. Not like the old shut out days of rafa when we could suffocate teams.
We seemed to be outnumbered every time we got the ball today. Confidence is shot to pieces but it’s clear that every team does the same thing against us and we don’t set up to stop it.
We need a midfield general. A vocal leader. We don’t seem to have direction at the minute.
But it wasn’t as bad before, we were facing a team that is playing football manager with cheat mode on with their funds and did well
Can we more solid ? Yes, I think hendo in for Keita and we become even more solid with baj sitting
Get Diaz or jota to stretch teams and run in behind and we stop some pressure to our back 4
Get the back man back as well with this compact system and we look better
I don’t think Chelsea cut us open until near the end properly when we ran out of legs. We also had our chances or two
I rather take draws than defeats, we badly need to keep us this solid and try to get some wins now to move forward but need the old guard back up top and at the back
