Kane needs to just go straight box predator. When he drops down to collect the ball he seemingly doesn't have it in him to finish once he gets back to the box
Like we did vs inter and psv and Watford. Let's keep telling ourselves we are dominating. Have to be more clinical and don't tell me we deserve to win. That's why we need to score ffs.
And further to that the only 2 good performances that half were from Moura and Winks. Although moura been far and away our best despite selling himself short for their goal.
How we are behind I don't know. I wish we were clinical but we're not. I don't want to be pushing to win this with five minutes left, need to go for it early in the second half.

We are so predictable, and this isn't just this match we've been like it a while now, Lamela for Son please.
It would be beyond embarrassing if we don't win this game.
Winks 90% pass completion.
Eriksen 60% according to stats
Eriksen 60% according to stats
Difference between us and the very best is our issue with taking chances. City seem to bloody score almost everything they get. We piss away way too many
We’ll stop when Llorente comes on
How will Sissoko open up space, are we going to suspend him from the roof and swing him like a giant bar skittle.
Sissoko doesn't open space, he just charges head long into it like a bull rhino with his tail on fire.
The gulf in class is evidently clear, just not clinical enough.
Dele getting into promising positions though and making great runs from deep. Just a little off, as expected. Son has been garbage all season (bar the two goals against West Ham), whether that's because he needs a rest or not, I have no idea. Lucas clearly our best player of that half.
I'd switch Toby and Sanchez, take Son off for Sissoko/Skipp and push Eriksen forward and go to a more 4231 - Lamela to come on about the hour mark for one of Dele/Eriksen. We really should be winning this game and I am confident we'll turn it round.
