Last season people rightly said we’re too frantic and need more control, which is exactly what we focussed on and now we’re winning games with ludicrous field tilt and control, and people want us to go back to last season’s style.
Some people will never be happy.
Control means nothing unless you can exercise it for offensive and defensive supremacy. No one is unhappy with the team’s performance but the lack of attacking edge is blatantly obvious.
City is the standard in this league, they create a lot more chances against every single opponent they face. While we’re struggling to break down bottom half defenses.
You’re not winning the league with the offensive firepower we’re showing atm which is the point, last year we didn’t expect to win the title, this season we expect to finish 2nd worst case.
I don’t think anyone should be happy with being 11th for non-penalty xG
Nor should they, but reverting back to a more direct style with less control like we saw last season isn’t the answer.
But 1st in non-penalty xGA. So I’m happy overall.
