Given that this was our first game without Jack and the fact we were playing a good Leicester team I don’t think it was too bad a performance from the players. McGinn wasn’t great but he certainly wasn’t that bad either and we know Barkley is either out of form or just struggling for fitness, but I can still understand picking him in the hope of the occasional flash of magic(even if I do disagree).
However bringing Trezeguet on, who offers zero attacking threat, when we’re chasing the game and need a goal is completely inexcusable. Why isn’t someone having a word with Deano? Or am I missing something?
