Can't understand any of this.
McGinn and Barkley have had dire second halves, but it was clear from the start Barkley wasn't anywhere near 100%. So wtf is he still doing on the pitch in the 79th minute?
I get it, our midfield depth isn't great, but we're drowning.
Traoré has done literally nothing since coming on - 17m, really? Been no better than Trez, arguably worse.
Mings has been shite, what happened to the powerhouse from our first 4 fixtures? It's only been a week since Leicester, he's so far off those levels already.
Grealish has been marked out of it after his ball cleared off the line earlier. Only a tactical change can open that up again, but Smith and co. have done nothing to address it.
None of it is logical game management. Smith seems so smart with his pre-match prep, but when the game plan doesn't work he's got nothing. Literally nothing. It's like the second coming of Martin O'Neill, but even he would switch the wingers to challenge the full backs a bit.
**** disaster tonight.
