It was a disappointing result last night although not a disaster by any means. The frustrating thing was that Saiz decided to have an off night and although better than Villa for the most part we allowed them back into the game and didn't create enough chances and missed out when we did. The frustrating things stood out. Ecuban is strong, quick, runs the channels and holds the ball up. He can even win balls in the air. Downside? He can't score. Lassaggo. He can do none of those things. What can he do? Answer - Score. Vierra had an excellent game last night. What can't he do? Pass accurately. Saiz? Can do most things Downside? He wants to do it all and often doesn't play in colleagues when he shouldaand over does things. We're almost there. We need a striker like Ecuban but who can finish; A left back that is actually a left back and an attacking, strong and experienced midfielder with a good pedigree. We could do very well.

Got to agree with you Hess. A solution I have for Ekuban is to recreate the Clarke/Jones partnership with him playing the Jones role and a. n. Other playing the poacher role. The main stopper on that thought is TCs love of the one upfront system.

Exactly. One up front is ok sometimes. Why not throw 2 up top and shock opposing teams by a change off system. Ecuban head on or hold up and play in lassago to finish . simples. ⚽️⚽️⚽️👍👍😂. would definitely play 2 up front at home next . go on TC. surprise everyone.

We basically do play 2 up Saiz occupies pockets up front to enable us to break out. Celeb possibly did more defensive work
