At no point do they really bang any balls into Erling Haaland's feet or play balls down the side.
When he first came into the country, I remember a game, I don't know if it was his debut or his first couple of games, when they played West Ham away and he scored a hat-trick and it was all little cute balls down the side using his pace.
and using the running ability that he's got.
So why wouldn't you put more crosses in?
I just think he's getting so frustrated because we've talked forever about after games, oh, he's only had 10 touches.
He's only had six touches and he's still scoring goals.
At some point, I think if you have limited touches on the ball,
it's going to have a knock-on effect in your final number.
And I think that's what we're seeing.
He should have scored it, fair enough.
He had two against Bodo, difficult chances.
But the players in and around him, I mean, Phil Foden today, he came on for three minutes of the game.
I mean, when the game's sitting at 2-2 and you need some creativity and someone that's going to give Erling Haaland a chance or two, to give Phil Foden three minutes, I thought that was a mistake.
Oh, Alexis, we've had some fun with this.
And it was 50-50 about three months ago.
