After today, I’d say the issue is the midfield. As ever.

Wright isn’t creative. Núñez isn’t, somehow, in the right place. Topic looks decent, but is new and hasn’t had a preseason with the squad. There isn’t anyone else.

Crnac, Forson and Sargent had no supply. If Diallo, Jurasek and Kvistgaarden had started, we’d be complaining about them. But the root is the same. Cordoba and Darling were playing the through balls to Stacey and Schlupp. If that’s the attacking options, that’s where the problems are.
