Subs
As I was watching, you could see we were getting more and more leggy. Tettey was not pressing the ball, Vrancic was blowing out of his arse. They were running by us and Buendia was not getting back to double up on Zaha every time.
Started at about 70 mins and got worse and worse until we eventually leaked.
Onel for Todd backfired as we stopped retaining the ball and we basically didn’t give Onel a single ball to run onto to. Stieps in for Pukki made it even worse. And Tettey and Vrancic played the whole game despite having no legs left for the last 15 mins.
Was crying out for TT or Amadou to give us energy in the defensive midfield work. Double sub for Tetts and Vrancic, keep the attacking talent on, play Onel high up so they had to leave people back or give us chances.
The game was visibly slipping for a long time and then the subs made us markedly worse. It cost us that game.
