I feel a bit sorry for Sabitzer. Think he'd have shown us more had he been able to play more matches with Casemiro.

Yeah thought they’d make a decent partnership but it’s barely had a chance!

Weggy looks a bit leggy

I think he's done okay. Doesn't dominate a game and could get involved more but what he does, he does competently

It's incredible a team third in the table is so poor in possession. Yes, tiredness is an issue but sheer lack of ability in that regard is also a limiting factor

I'm pretty sure we weren't as bad as this at passing even at the start of the season.

No control whatsoever.

No. Our first team is good. Eriksen, Case, Varane, Martial even. The next level of play is distinctly poor.

We could easily have half a 'new' team by April.

Bringing in Dalot, Varane, Casemiro, Eriksen, Antony and Martial. If we had those I'm certain we'd keep the ball better.

ahhhhhh

Casemiro is really the maestro of this team. He directs the action everywhere on the pitch. The players are lost without him.

Ah ffs. Tried to walk it in

Faaack shoooooot

Flack.

No confidence whatsoever

The problem with Case and Sabitzer as a pairing is you don’t have a ball carrier in the side.

That’s why ETH hasn’t used them as a pair.

Sabitzer was just about last in the Bundesliga amongst midfielders for carries.

Crap half.

The pass was to Shaw immediately.

We’ve been playing exactly the same with him in the team and his ball retention is equally as poor.

We look absolutely knackered, mentally and physically

meh

Dixon is annoying but he made a good point at the end of the half. There is no pattern of play with us and everything is off the cuff.

Happy with that, given how poorly we’ve played

Barely had a training session for months, games every 3 days.

Hopefully a change of scene with their international teams will refresh them.

De Gea, AWB, Varane, Eriksen, Martial, Sancho won't be involved and not every other player will be starting either.

How are you supposed to prepare for games tactically, let alone on the training ground, when they’re coming every three days.
