And it's what we all expected, and if we were still playing now I doubt we would have scored.
I want to know why, when we have the ball in the final 3rd, we don't have a deep running midfielder, you know just to try and pull someone out if position to create a bit of space.
Instead everyone stands in the same position snap just moving the ball left to right, and back again. It's lacklustre and to easy to defend, as proven last night and in many other games this season
We were playing a Pulis bus. A cannon would struggle to penetrate it, let alone a creative midfielder. I did think that John Stones pulled a couple of players out of position when he pushed forward, an option maybe we didn't exploit enough. Martinez has gotten things woefully wrong a lot of times this season, but last night wasn't one of those times.
