    I didn't like his starting 11 tonight, but it could be said he got it right. If only the players could have taken SOME of the chances it could have been different.

    The lack of finishing is killing us. For a big chunk of that game we looked the better side but we lack that killer instinct. And also to end the game with o’reilly, mooy and Turnbull as our 3 CMs is madness, that’s a slow, slow midfield against any team, never mind Leipzig.

    I’m a big fan of Ange, but a real concern that his * mindedness in playing one way is going to seriously hamper any progression in Europe

    He plays too open at this level, we have to learn to sit in and soak up the pressure and break at speed. Its unreal how many times teams play through us bcoz we play like an under 10s all chasing the ball.

    Players arnt fit enough to play the way he wants to play and the drop of in not only quality but also pace/energy in the players coming off the bench is massive.

    you can say in at least 2 of the games maybe even three that if chances had been taken then he has his teams right ! It’s not been down to the selections if you ask me , if we had took even a 3rd of the chances we’ve had in these games we would be sitting on 5 or 6 points. Not down to ange it’s on the players

    Need to spend on a striker and let one of these current guys drop in as third choice

    Tactically there's still huge questjon marks. It's kamikaze and I think in a weird way that also gets its way into the players mindset when finishing chances. Equally erratic.

    Dunno what to say. Really poor.

    I don’t have an issue with our overall approach to games in Europe. It’s not Ange who’s been missing chance after chance in front of goal.

    Yeah you wonder if any of his coaches have the guts to point out the obvious. He himself needs to have a good look at the bigger picture here. I still don't know why we signed Mooy other than the fact he's a big guy,

    It's his system that leaves gaping holes in our full back areas though.

    He's deserves credit for the team creating so many chances but he deserves all the criticism that comes his way for the team constantly gassing out due to our pressing and ultimately going on to lose the games.
    I still think most of the stick should be aimed at the players because the sheer amount of great chances we've missed over the past 4 games is diabolical.

    I am baffled. The system he plays is questionable at times and he seems incapable of changing it when necessary.

    Had we clinical strikers the system would arguably work.

    Was so obvious the middle of the park would be lost when the teams came out his subs questionable again as well
