Not really if you believe like me that the reason we’re playing a back five is because of our lack of quality center mids with Delph and Allan injured.Dissecting the tactics of today in isolation is completely pointless. What we’re commenting on here though is the theme across almost every game we’ve tried to play a back three i.e. get pushed back, becomes a back five, midfield two get swamped, can’t get out, invites more pressure and front three get isolated.
That’s entirely valid to comment on.
Bad move mateTurned it off. Going to watch the rest of the City game.
