I honestly also see where you are coming from, but today we still didn't play with any width.
How many times did Martina or Baines look up only to throw their arms about and hit an aimless ball into the box?
Playing 2 true wingers would be playing with 'width', hugging the touchline and what not.
I think say Unsworth could get the team playing back to basics and with a bit of grit.
Koeman has also spoken about intensity, agression and pressing - we have never ever done it.
What else can Koeman do? Come on the pitch and slap the players for not being intense? Do they find no shame in playing like cowards?
We all want width and Vlasic started cos of his performance in EL.
We have a good quality winger in Mirallas who's attitude is not right. No manager would have a sulker in a team already struggling.
Lennon - is he the answer you feel? All he has is some pace but no product.
Lookman - The most plausible alternate. I agree he should have got more minutes this season. He struggled against Hadjik and hence has been on the outs. I think Koeman has been protecting him cos if he gives him a run and he struggles his confidence will be shaken. Vlasic on the other hand seems like a fighter and it shows in his game. So our two wingers are 19 and 20 with few experience. Youngsters need senior players around them and that way they also get confidence. You don't put the burden on their shoulders all of a sudden.
Bolasie, we are missing him badly.
I wish Koeman had signed one quality pacy winger considering Bolasie was out instead of signing either Klaasen or Sigu. That is a trick missed.
