I thought the Rags looked not too bad at times. Granted I didn't watch the whole half but they do appear to be playing it well from the back.
They have no idea how to play out from the back.

Onana gives it to a Varane, Gives it back to Onana, Onana gives it to Wan-Bissaka, Wan-Bissaka plays it long, Rags lose possession.

Maybe if Seven Hag didn't throw his philosophy out the window after the 4-0 defeat at Brentford last season the players might have belief in what he's trying to do.

They don't know if they want to play out from he back or play long. Clueless tactics.
 
Onana looks decent but he’s nowhere near Ederson in terms of distribution.

The thing is they're not doing anything any other team or keeper couldn't do

Even I could literally pass to a full back again and again because they're in that much space

It's not like he's playing weighted balls into the midfield with accuracy so the midfield can get hold of it and turn quickly and get moving

He's passing to Luke Shaw again and again or playing long balls and half of them get cut out.

Just because you're passing to a full back in acres of space instead of hoofing upfield doesn't really mean you're playing out from the back in the manner that we do
