We started to look a bit better in the last 10 minutes, we could control the ball at least, but we lack penetration, our wingers just aren't finding Richarlison, or anyone else for that matter, and no-one is picking the slack, not even Maddison who's still looking rusty.
 
Shit tactics, we praying that one of the most hopeless strikers will make something happen and is out on his own in the box against 2 or 3 defenders, our wide attacking players keeping width and look passive as fuck, barely getting in the box, while we clutter the midfield with 7 players who can’t find any space cause Brentford are keeping it narrow and compact.
 
1.Maulay needs a fucking Romero tackle
2.That cunt collins should be off the pitch for 2 blatant fouls
3. The ref has lost control
4. VAR is a fucking corrupt con
 
Need to move the ball faster. We can’t break down 11 men behind the ball. Need to attack fast with more balls down the flanks and get crosses into the box for richy, benta and Maddison to bang home
 
We need the full backs to overlap on the outside of the wide forward. There’s plenty of space there if they do and it’s the easiest way for us to “get behind them”.

Like the Liverpool game it’s clear to see this is how we can exploit the opposition but we need to flex on tactics.

Game still there to be won, need to show more of a threat though.
 
This is frustrating, they are camped in and we seem to just be passing it around hoping for them to mess up, we need to start getting some balls in the box, stretch the game, Kulu has been the worst player out there - what is up with him just lately? Looking more like the player Juve wanted gone - Skipp played well but I cant wait till we have SARR back

Skipp arguably our best player which wouldn’t be saying much admittedly
 
We've been pretty poor and Brentford have clearly rattled us. Maddison was mouthing off at someone in the first five minutes and it was obvious he was wound up already. We need to rise above the niggles and the time wasting, they're fucking laughing at us.
