You mean not playing the ball blind inside, which you should almost never do as a centre back?

He could have just cleared it when being pressed like that.

There is a huge gap in the centre of midfield. The reason? McGinn dropping to right back. JJ dropping to left back and done so for the full backs to bomb forward. It isn't working. They are stopping us and we are looking for an out-ball that isn't there or trying one over the top - see McGinn earlier. 

Coutinho just has to drop deeper to get on the ball and Luiz needs to be available at all times to receive it.

For a team with such technical and creative players in Buendia and Coutinho we are really not great at giving them the ball and keeping possession in the opponents half.

Thought that against Leeds. 

We don't seem to be able to move the ball forward well into that final 3rd. 

I think Watkins poor hold up play hinders it at times.
