Playing it too safe here

I think we?re going to have to throw in White and Calafiori at some point, to introduce a bit of jeopardy into proceedings.

Would help if Trossard and Sterling could stay onside.

We have created next to nothing. Nwaneri is the biggest threat. We need to start winning corners on the other side....

There?s not much pace upfront. They?re not moving the ball quick enough either. Leicester probably happy with a point here.

I fancy Leicester to score. They look more likely than us. Had the best chances of the first half. Or the only chances....

Yep. An absolutely atrocious performance, so far.

We're struggling. Not surprising. You have to hope we will adjust to the lack of a forward line but it might take time.

Sterling is actually a hindrance to this team...

Feel sorry for Sterling. Literally nothing is working for him. :-(

Looks like it. And why not? A coat stand would do a better job than Sterling.

Miracle they didn't score there.

The Wolves game the other week was the first time we improved a result in the last 20 minutes since the home game against Leicester in September.

We just don't score late goals :-(

Odegaard broke there, beautifully. The two players ahead of him both went backwards :-(
