When did we lose the ability to cross?
Clearly not much point slinging balls into the box for Pukki, but we did use to get our full backs / wide players towards the byline and put it across the 6 yard box. Max seems to always cut back inside, Sorensen is never up there.
Seems like we never do that now, is it because of Onel not being available? Or is it a conscious decision by Farke in not having the full backs so advanced?
Either way, we seem far too narrow and one dimensional in our approach. clearly there will be plenty of teams that struggle to cope with that approach, but it would be good to have something else in our arsenal.
