I think we should stop pressing and go into a mid block … we don’t have the legs in midfield and need to be more compact. We can really hurt these guys on the counter. We are too open at the moment

Samu getting into great positions but not delivering...

We watched this very boring video, 500 times, of Sacchi doing defensive drills, using sticks and without the ball, with Maldini, Baresi and Albertini.

The coach should talk with him. It's this kind of cockiness that cam cause problems at the most inopportune times.

Why is Chukwueze looking so mad on being substituted? He’s lucky to have lasted this long

Why not just play Iwobi on the flanks like he does with Fulham? Much better there than Samu.

You have to be balanced. He's getting into good positions as the #10 Ok the end product is not always there but he has an assist
