We can’t expect to win games at this level if we make stupid mistakes as we did for their goals. Hopefully lessons will be learned sooner rather than later.
Positives today, again the centre backs were decent apart from being asleep for the penalty. Luiz looked very good after a shaky start and a great goal. McGinn put plenty of effort in.
Negatives, the left side again offered very little as El Ghazi was very quiet again and Taylor offers nothing going forward even if his defending was ok. I don’t know if Grealish is trying too hard or is doing too many late night training sessions but he struggled. Wesley did a couple of decent runs and should have an assist if Trezeguet had showed some composure at the end of the first half, but he struggled against two centre backs. I think he needs a bit of support.
It’s too early to get downbeat but we need to cut out the stupid errors and be far more clinical when the chances come, as this league is ruthless. There will be 7 or 8, at least, in the relegation mix. Realistically we will probably be one, but we have the talent to finish ahead of at least 3 of them if we apply ourselves and learn our lessons quickly.
