We are a victim of our own success. Last season we had a fast start because teams hadn’t worked us out. Now they have and they sit in a Conte esq puke inducing low block because they know if they try playing expansive football against us we’ll slaughter them dead. So when you are up against that tactic the chance creation and build up suffer as you have to pick a very difficult lock, especially when a good team like Brentford deploy that tactic.
We’re still picking up the points obviously, but we have been leaving it a bit late for comfortable viewing sometimes granted.
