I may have been trying too hard to find the positives but it did look for a short while at least early on that we were winning the ball back more often...
...but we had to do that because the passing and movement was awful...
...and then we played into Newcastle's hands by pissing about with it at the back and letting the crowd and momentum get all over Varane who had an absolute mare.
Then certain players decided they didn't want to press any more and win the ball back and it spread like wildfire and all of a sudden it was caution and plodding so that we didn't get done on the counter for which we had no plan at all.
4-2-2-2 doesn't work and neither does having a four of any of Ronaldo/Rashford/Greenwood/Sancho/Bruno.
4-3-1-2/diamond might work but we need to allow the full backs to push up. Gets Bruno back behind the strikers as a ten and has cover behind him for when he gives it away. I don't care who is part of that as long as it can screen for the counter/defence.
Cavani needs to start as one of the two up front regardless of what we do cause he'll press.
Rashford needs to be dropped.
Covid isn't helping with all the time off.
