That's the most disappointing thing about us at the moment. At home we shouldn't be looking to kill off a game via counter attacks (like we did against Arsenal... which almost went the other way). If we were comfortable on the ball and happy in possession you kill these games off by not allowing the opposition to actually have the ball. There's nothing wrong being 3-2 up and just passing it between your centre backs if there is nothing open. Yet we had to launch it to Ade or behind their men to Bellers or SWP.
Completely agree; but why do players quality look terrified of taking the ball? I'm shocked at how often the full-backs and goalkeeper send it long. Sometimes it's down to pressure, but more often it's down to players shirking responsibility.
