Problem with a sweeping keeper, unless you have a very quick and mobile DM you are always exposed on the counter. Neither are the CBs quick enough to deal with this higher line. Not sure ETH has really thought this through.

Lousy Smarch weather
Our signings are looking great so far.

Injured.

Missed an open goal.

Conceded a goal from the half-way line.

AWB and Dalot have now made shitty midfield passes, the finish is class though!

That's on Dalot for me, idiotic place to give the ball away.

The midfield balance is off. We need someone more defensively solid to play alongside Case. I’m not sure about Mount and Bruno together

What. A. Finish. What one foot under the bar, first time?
