If you play three / five

at the back, you can’t afford to also have two out and out holding CMs and only one striker.

Was virtually a 3-6-1 today as Murphy was effectively left midfield and Maddison often dropped very deep.

Fine at home v Chelsea, not fine at home in the Champ. But yes, a lack of attacking options limits the possibilities.
