We need to keep on pressing, they don‘t look very confident playing out od the back

Look at where Doucoure is now.

Lindstrom, NDiaye an McNeil aren't going to be dropping that deep.

Doucoure routinely covers Mangala an Gana. When he doesn't - villa have loads of space.

Yeah an attacking midfielder can't drop deep, ever, only Doucoure can. Bizarre.

You've also picked a still from when we're pushed back and the entire midfield is in a blob. It's a silly way to do it, even more so when there's plenty of places to pinpoint average positions and heatmaps. With the same success:

Wow he's basically a striker, what the hell, can any other midfielder ever do that?! Doubt it.

A shot on target!
