They don't create too much, they don't slip clever and cute passes in, and I think that's where they're coming unstuck.
From the five out-and-out midfield players, six goals all season, that ain't enough.
And I worry for them now.
That's another kick.
When you go back to where they were...
And I'm thinking in particular the draw against Leicester and the draw against West Ham in the same week that I think Newcastle beat City.
That was our opportunity to really put a marker down and kick on and really say this is ours this year.
And I've allowed City back into it and we sit here now with Liverpool being in the driver's seat.
Sorry, we're sitting in the driver's seat.
But what did we see today?
We remarked that he looked like his old self today, early on.
And then he gets a couple of chances, and this is have a chance, he gets a shot off straight down the barrel.
Easy for him to pick that up.
The one after this, you know, when he comes down the right-hand side.
Yeah, but it's not a great effort, it's an easy, safe one.
This is one where Digne goes early, simple up on the pitch, he's emptying, long before they're in good possession, missed control, allows him one-on-one with the goalkeeper.
First touch, good, second touch, good, gets himself into the situation he wants to be in where he can take time and open his body out.
And he finds Pickford in good form.
But yeah, you see Daniel going too early before Everton are fully in possession of the ball.
Can I just say here, if Wijnaldum keeps running, he blocks Keane.
