Lack of pace on the wings

Grealish and Mahrez will be ok for teams that park the bus, but games which are open we need players that can go on the outside.
This 100% so basically we need grealish and mahrez for 95% of games. Pace was great when we had silva and kdb supplying now we only have kdb as good as bernie is he's no dave so we have to play a more patient game.
 
Such a lazy and wrong myth this “pace on the wing” sterling apparently brought us. He wasn’t overly direct, he rarely took players on. Threads like this starter after one fucking game, in a friendly need bans brought to the poster
Kin hell mate this is bluemoon, word of advice avoid the matchday thread if this upsets you ;-)
 
Yeah, we’re slow and predictable on the wings at the mo. However, I expect when we adapt we’ll see speed through the middle.

Haaland didn’t have a great game but some of his off-ball movement was actually quite good. We have the intelligent creative players to ping him stuff at pace once the team gels.

Early days. Fear not, folks.
