Playing out of the back is a joke too. It’s so demoralising.

Not just formation but also style of play. Pass it along the back (but every player must take minimum two touches), feed it to the wide positions (where we don't actually have any naturally wide players), push back inside and hope Bruno can do some magic (unless he's not there, in which case let Fred have a shot over the bar). It's become ponderous and predictable. Tired players could explain it, but isn't every team tired?
The times we've looked good this season (beyond Bruno) is when we've tried to move the ball quicker, switched the ball at pace and whipped in more first-time balls. In short, taken a few more risks.
