Guys, hes been in charge for 6 months and had one real window (not including Jan when the club is for sale).
Eriksen has been a massive improvement over what we’ve seen in the last ten years. Hes played in the middle against Arsenal, City and Liverpool and we’ve beaten them all at some point.
Of course de Jong, Bellingham or Enzo would improve us but we cant do anything about that until the summer.
Playing alongside someone as erratic positionally as McTominay is hard, especially for a 31-year old with a heart condition who was never blessed with pace.
Focus on the fact that we are competitive on the field against teams that are much further along in their development than us and we’ve done that in 6 months.
Imagine where we’ll be with a ball playing gk, an attacking rb, a top cm, a top striker and more options off the bench on the wings. The future is bright and despite the result the mentality, grit and bravery we showed on the ball compared to the recent past is evidence of that.
