Our midfield is starved of creativity. We have one player and that's eriksen, who can pick a pass out. Dembele and paulinho cannot pass the ball quick enough and don't spot any runs. It's side ways or backwards.
I would be delighted if he fucked off to madrid and we go our money back. So we could then get a midfielder that can pass the ball and actually looks interested, rather than just strolling round the pitch like he is on the beach in Rio. He can't handle the pace of the league and doesn't posess the abilities that we need from a midfielder.
Yeah agreed he ran around a lot yesterday, I think he even covered the most miles, 6 I think, and he put in an easy tap in. But apart from running around, what did he do? No imagination in any of his passes, no killer balls, no feeding anyone through. Just side to side and backwards. It's alright against fulham, stoke and cardiff but when your playing the other top 6 teams you need more than that and he can't offer it.
