He could at least try to not look so guilty after every foul. Just doesn't have the reaction time needed, Godfrey at least has the pace to recover even if he can't pass.
We needed to control the midfield to not get overrun by their pace but it just kept bouncing off him straight to their players.
DCL would've been the better choice but it's really shocking the lack of hold-up play Beto offered today.
At Bournemouth, the reasoning for VAR not getting involved was because the ref didn't call it right?
He didn't call it here, but they decided to take a look?
What will get them to look? See whether anyone kicks up enough of a fuss over their mistakes?
Since we tend to do better blitzing teams at the start then holding on later, I'd probably like to see him start over Doucoure. Though that probably means Gueye has to play too since Gomes can't really be relied on to defend without fouling his man
He was still marking Zouma on corners after that goal, and after last week too? Is the system so inflexible that we can't put someone else on their danger man during the match?
