I legit don't know what's working well in this team right now, there's so many issues -
1. Very old and slow midfield makes it extremely easy to counter
2. Defenders extremely high line means there's usually not enough bodies at the back, leading us to concede basically the same exact goal every week (2nd goal today)
2. No ability to counter with pace
3. No overlapping fullbacks, so very easy to double team on wingers
4. No creativity in the middle of the pitch, so no problem for opponents to focus on wings
5. No real aerial threat in the middle despite having a 6''4' striker due to poor crossers on the wings
6. Fullback inverts inside offering very little in possession but leaving their position exposed to the counter
7. Wingers don't create underlapping runs behind the defenders (like sane and sterling used to do), so opponent centerbacks can very easily focus on striker
8. Midfield extremely slow & striker who presses lazily means very hard to execute press effectively
9. very little goal contribution from the wing due to poor finishers in that position leaves our only threat isolated in the striker position
How much is this on pep? I don't know, but all of these things have been there for 3 months and we still continue to do the same things.
