What was a clear strength of ours when attacking the opposition looks like it's become a weakness to defend against. Wolves, Newcastle and a bit of Southampton tells me that most teams in the league are going to try and sit deep and hit us on the break. We often pen teams in until a missed placed pass or dispossession leaves us biting our teeth as the opposition floods forward with intent in about 4-5 seconds.
What's the best fix for this? Vs Wolves Fred was caught out, I think Maguire bombed in too early for the goal today and there are probably other examples.
I'm asking the forum because perhaps I'm being overly critical, I heard on the train back today that Mendy made a range of saves for Chelsea so no defence is without their flaws. Perhaps there is something to be wary of from our side though. I still feel like we are not completely in control of defending attacks, unless it's around Varane's channel of course . Does anyone else share that sentiment?
