We generally rely on our full backs to be the creative force, and even moreso without Salah and Mane, but they were both below par last night. Robbo’s set piece delivery was particularly bad, and really don’t know what Trent was at in the second half moving inside all the time.
We immediately looked far more dangerous when Neco came on and reverted to giving us width.
Jones also made a difference when he came on, and it was only in the last few minutes when we actually looked like scoring, but Taki fluffed his lines. What he did was easy to do the way the ball came at him on the up, but obviously should have scored. He’d done okay up to that, but that’s likely his confidence gone at a time when we really need him to step up over the next few games.
