We played quite well until that goal, now it's a cup game for them. Pep needs to change something, either shoot more or tighten the grip in the box, they are very few bodies. Or maybe to 4-4-2 again, there is no point spreading the play when they are defending the box. And we lost quite a few balls on both sides of their box and it's always a quick turn-over. We miss Mr. Whippy it is obvious, Pep needs to do something to compensate this.

Was that when we were languishing in mid-table? Funny how our season turned on it’s head when we introduced an actual footballer, instead of a Poundland sprinter.

No mate it was when he was saving our arses, scoring away at bramall lane and we had a load of games on hand

Walkers recovery pace doesn’t do much for us when he decides to leave his man alone and mark a goalpost instead.

He did get back to win the ball on a few occasions as well though. He doesn't offer much going forward but he's better defensively against the break than Cancelo and I guess that's why he's playing at RB.

I agree that it does unbalance us though and limits us going forward. They know that and are giving us a bit more space on the right in order to block our left side which is where our more dangerous players are.
 
I think tonight without our player of the season so far Gundogan we should have played our strongest defense as an insurance policy.

Too many changes forced,and unforced.
