Maybe with some development, but they're not there yet. I think elsewhere on the pitch we have some super talent, albeit I think the youth of our back line is causing us to concede some goals that we shouldn't. But I don't see that same talent in forward areas.
Plus, I thought it was plainly obvious we were going to concede last night when I saw Barnes, Vardy and Under starting. There's attacking and then there's reckless. I know some people are excited about the prospect but to me it's asking for trouble. Like the other side of the coin from starting Ndidi and Mendy as a double pivot.

I agree with the defensive frailties. I think last night is a game that highlights how much we miss our first choice fullbacks supporting in attack.
4-2-3-1 with Castagne and Pereira feels like a very different prospect.
