We're like Arsenal under the Wenger.
We've got some fantastic first XI players. And we're as good as anybody in Europe when everyone is on song. But if only one player is slightly off it, nothing quite works.
Rashford's direct risk taking is vital, Martial inside-to-out threat is vital, Lingard's movement is vital, Pogba's creativity is vital. Take any of that away and we misfire like crazy.
The squad needs better options off the bench and better contingencies on the pitch. In particular, Herrera and Matic are not good enough passers to step in when Pogba has an off day.
