he put some brilliant dead balls in, but from open play he was dreadful today. looks a shadow of his former self and strangely, he seemed to play without any rage today. No passion, no frustration, no heart. i've no doubt he will get back to best midfielder in the world, but he is miles away at the moment.
 
Created two clear chances but were wasted by Sergio.

The first one was when Sergio took the shot instead of passing it back to KDB who fought to held the ball and passed it to Sergio.

The 2nd one was when he crossed the ball to Sergio, who somehow couldn't touch the ball !

If Sergio did his job in these two situations, everyone will be praising KDB now for the goal & assist.

I don't know what game you were watching. He was pretty fiery in the first 45. More whiney than anything but heart abd frustration, definitely there to see
 
I'm of the opinion we should try kev out wide and bernardo central. Bring some spice. Kev at winger playing early balls to raheem would be something a bit different and potentially devastating. He's faster than he's given credit for. I think we are missing Sane's serive on the left quite a bit. Becoming predictable. The wingbacks are good but today's game was open enough that the idea would've been worth a punt. For early service, linking the wings. More direct.

Though it definitely looks best when it goes from Kev (at cam) to Sane then Sterling. miss that much. kev's vision and the pace demons linking for the easy but beautiful

It was not a vintage performance but I felt he put in a reasonable shift and while not at his best if he stays fit I expect him to be back to his best in the New Year. The well oiled system of the past two seasons is not functioning correctly at the moment and Kev like a lot of others are suffering in terms of individual performances.
 
Just wasnt his day , his touch and control let him down at vital times but you cannot fault his commitment , some of his crosses were begging to be finished but our forwards just were not "at it" in the Dippers six yard box. Of all the games we needed him to take the game by the scruff of the neck , then this was it , he didnt really let us down , i just expected more from him.
