Before the Liverpool game, I said I could see him go on an okay run if his favorites pick up form. I didn't expect him to deviate from playing on the counter in big games. He's clearly lost the other players so he won't change his line up now, and I think it'll rub off on Bruno, Ronaldo, etc. One shit goal conceded and they will be thinking: "here we go again". That must be detrimental to performances.
Bailly/Matic/VDB/Telles have put in better performances in their limited game time this season than Maguire/Shaw/McFred. (the CAF ratings confirm this, with exception of Telles who made a big mistake in his one game)
