Run of the mill job today, nobody had a poor game, nobody was electric either though, just got the job done drama free against a tight defensive unit. Laportes diagonals were a joy to see.
Not really a criticism of today but more a comment on the season as a whole so far and going forward. we haven't yet found that alternative for breaking teams down, teams have had a year to devise a way of playing against us now, and whilst were still winning, theyre looking more adept at it and we can look a little flat at times and lacking in ideas. Maybe Mendy with his crossing ability will offer that once hes back but we will need to find other ways to win as the season goes on otherwise we will find ourselves in a few games where we just can't break through stubborn defences which almost never happened last season.
