Pretty much.I get what you mean. Players always look at the coach to sort out the problems. Always. When a team loses the question is asked what happened and how do we stop this happening. It is very easy for us to say Maguire did this and Bailly did this but in reality the mistake starts a lot earlier. It is down to the coaches to look at what happened and to stop it happening. To say that we have been a shambles is right.
I will give a couple of examples in the Spurs match.
1. Martial broke and Son pursued him and did not tackle him but slowed him down and the Spurs defence sprinted back.
2. Son broke and it was up to Matic to run after him and it was only a miss control that let DeGea save it. When they break our defence just jogs back.
3. When the Spurs full back went to score the goal, Pogba let him go.
4. When we were 1-3 down we still played the same way. We did not try to cut down the goals they scored.
5. So much space left for Spurs to play even when it was still 11 v 11. Look at the positional play of us. All over the place. Even when we attack there is no passing. We try to dribble with head down and try to take the whole opposing team. Why do not pass? DVB looks extremely puzzled as to what is happening on the pitch.
It is entirely due to lack of coaching.
When 1-2 players are performing badly, it can be a player issue. When the entire team looks like a pub side that can barely string together an attack in 3 games (after a poor close to the previous season), you know there's a serious problem.
