The longer it goes on the more worrying it becomes that his form (although steadier the last few games) is more down to his mental state rather than his ability.

He plays in a position were he should be scoring goals and creating chances. For me he doesn't do enough. Decent money came for him I personally would move him on as I don't see any sign of improvement at the moment. I would love him to come good but I just don't see it unfortunately. Hope I am wrong.
The 2 DMs behind him surely?

Lost his way and can't find his way back at the moment. Lost all interest.

Was that the one before they scored?

They don't though. The wide players don't either. Lukaku doesn't.
The RS play with about 4 attacking midfielders who are interchangeable
Hes our number 10, nobody should cover him, he should be up top with Rom.
That's what I'm saying about our entire front 4, no movement and no pressing. He needs to improve this aspect of his game. Koeman has said this on numerous occasions about our forward line so he's obviously not happy
....yep, first half. Made the space brilliantly but he seems to loose his positional awareness. I think it was Bournemouth away where he had the headed chance from Bolasies cross and put that wide. Top players bury those, the opportunity is too good to miss.

But he's not as the side don't pass to him. They hoof it out wide.
As for the cover aspects, it was in relation to coutinho who's playing in a system where Klopp wants players to fill in positions and interchange.
And in relation to today...the pressing wasn't down to when their defenders had it...it was the halfway and in out half where it was all over the shop.

Yep, I know the one mate, I've only seen it the once, much like Lukaku's miss. Should've been 2-0 up before the pen. Just one of those days, although I've lost faith in Barkley ever coming close to what we had hoped.

I agree.
But if we forget about his pressing and look at his creative side, if the forward line isn't moving...how does he get better?

Last attack we had today,he starts "showboating" instead of whipping a ball in the box,awful display again,he's not alone,but I fear he's the type of lad who will only ever shine when we are playing well and confident,Koemans tried leaving him out and persevering with him and it hasn't worked,I just don't know what's next for Ross
