yep, I kind of wonder what might have been

if Farke would have been a bit braver, and persisted with the likes of Leitner, Trybull, Stiepermann and Vrancic. Giving them time to adapt to the physicality of the league. They have barely got a look in since our injury crisis was over, despite continuing terrible results.

Instead they were dropped and replaced with more physical players, but ones with much less technical ability. The losses where we just get bullied off the park have stopped as a result, but so too have the impressive performances like against Newcastle, Chelsea and even Liverpool.

        But Amadou and Tettey would have allowed the fullbacks to get higher up the pitch (NCFC) - Maillot Jaune, Feb 16, 10:11:14
