Matic
Alert Team
A very welcome win indeed and what I felt was more an illustration of how well we can attack if the right players are on the pitch in the right positions.
Its too early to see this as a turning point though. We play two very good teams this week and they will give us a clearer idea of what Jose has actually adapted, if anything. WBA still managed to expose us and Jose still has no clue how to balance our team. We either leave our defence exposed and score goals or we get nowhere near to scoring and try to park a bus.
I still maintain that it is in ACM/CM and DM where Jose's tactics are costing us. We have the right players and a good mix of styles at our disposal but the tactics in that area of our team are unbalanced and disorganised.
