It's the reason I don't like Eth tactics. Why is Mainoo's pair, who's supposed to help in transitioning the ball to our forwards, far away from him.

Makes more sense why he wanted McTom to remain.

I'm not sure what Mctom is supposed to do in this situation? The same mctom that always hide behind players? He will most likely be getting ready to run into the LFC 18

There is a reason I have not even mentioned Casemiro name at all or any player. Slot and his team came with a game plan. Close down Case and Mainoo very fast with as many players as possible. What was ETH's plan? Anybody?

Only the third goal is a close down tho , no?
Easy to praise Slot for having a gameplan when we were making mistakes all over the place

you're right. My point is about his tactics, where most of the players go forward includng CM which suits McTom well, instead of transitioning forward as a team. One of the major issues of this is lack of passing options.

Mrviktor:


Why attack only rashford and case while leaving out the other 9 player's.

Rashford as bad as we were created 2 chances for us to score.

Garnacho + Bruno + mainoo + the other players on d pitch didn't produce anything...

Amad tried but nothing to show for it..

We are always quick to blame individuals and not the team.

Fred is the problem.
Fred left.

Maguire is the problem.
Maguire was dropped

Degea is the problem
Degea left.

Sancho is the problem
Sancho left.

Mac is the problem
Mac has left.

Wan bisaka is the problem
Aaron has left

Now rashford and case are the problem remaining.
Case would leave by the end of the season or January

Lemme see who they would blame next...

I think his point is that it could take quite a while before Mctom's replacement (Ugarte) reaches suitable fitness levels...

The man don dey take style dey use that one as excuse already

Ugarte is no Carrick or Rodri plus Kante, which is what the tactic probably demands; so I'm not expecting much

Maybe I have forgotten how the first goal happened. I remember Case had to pass and he chose to pass forward, which was intercepted.

I have not praised Slot gameplan. I only mentioned it because he spoke about it and we saw it happen. What can you say about your ETH's game plan?

Its confusing. Does he want to build play from the back or he wants to play quick transition football?
