that's part of the issue with having a team that is set up and likes to play on the counter at pace....they struggle to change that mentality when they are up and need to see the game out with a little bit more possession and slowing the game down

we just don't have the type of guys who will just put their foot on the ball and knock it around

We had 62% possession against Everton

We were knocking it around fine until we tried shutting up shop and invited unnecessary pressure.

We really are better off staying on the front foot and getting that two goal margin. Watching us trying to slow a game down is painful.

We pissed all over Everton for all but about 4 minutes, in that 4 minutes they managed 3 goals and Calvert-Lewin put a 1v1 wide. The rest of the time they barely got out of their half. The CBs and goalkeeper are £#%&!ing useless.
