We literally had more than double of their chances and our chances even more dangerous than theirs.
They set up defensively and want to hit on counter, we didn’t want to play in their hand and choose to play patiently enough rather than be risky which we still had decent amount of chances just not clinical and credit on their keeper & Silva saves.
Obviously we want to play more risky but I understand the choice of Ole’s approach today since Lampard is trying to bait Ole to do so in order to play counter.
James was awful, no way Ole should give him any starting playing time anymore after that awful performance. The thing I hate him nowadays is that he prefers to cut inside and going for tight spot when it’s better for him to exploit the width since there is more space and cross the ball. Why trying to play your own weakness just not smart enough from James.
