And it was.
It wasn't good at all.
But I'm also looking at this and I'm a bit like, well, how do you... I think if we'd have been aggressive as a midfield...
They just picked the ball off, passed it through us.
I mean, they've actually created chances.
And this is sort of the problem with a lot of what I'm watching at the minute is I don't know what the solution is.
It's just not very good.
I just don't think they've got the tools to do that.
I don't think they've got tools to take a game to team.
I don't think they've got the tools to pick a defensive path.
I don't think they've got it in them to sit in and frustrate.
They did, but they also have Mohamed Salah on the right wing having the season in his life and Trent Alexander-Arnold at right back breaking things apart and making their life a hell of a lot easier, giving them more time on the ball.
And this is sort of what I meant about when Chelsea could just step up and be a bit more aggressive and know that we're not going to hurt them because we weren't going to hurt them.
And it's basically a really good summary of
everything that's wrong in a game of football in terms of we haven't got enough players we haven't got a strong enough squad we didn't fix the problems that were caused by players leaving in whether that's left wing or right back centre forward centre forward we didn't fix these things and it's all everything just coming home to roost in one thing and it just looks atrocious it's it's
as a game of football and a line-up that we put out it is as close to summing the whole shebango as you can possibly get I think it's not just one thing it's so many different things that are causing these well there seems to be something I mean mentality is a huge part of it and we've often talked about their mentality in a very different way but like this sort of passive nature of the way that they're playing is is
Yeah, they've switched off to allow Cucurella in.
About five minutes later, they get a quick free kick, and we let Cucurella back in again.
It was just very frustrating, the whole thing, in terms of how it went out.
The 50-70 was a little bit of an improvement.
