They are poor at the back, we just need to get control in midfield easier said then done with Donk in that role and them kicking Neves twice in the first 10mins, he might be carrying a knock after that.
Two centres half doing OK, RAN and Sa need to get switched on.
 
We are still learning this system but we have had the goal, Neto and Hwangs shots that went straight at the keeper plus the one Donk should score at the end.. give me that over some.of the games last season (where we'd get to about 70 kins without a shot on target) any day.
 
Donk hasn't been terrible. He pops up all over the pitch and does a lot of stuff that people don't like giving him any credit for. I think it's just become a fashionable cliche to give him pelters.

When was the last time you saw one of the DMs playing in a 4-2-3-1, run on to a flick in the box and almost score but for a good save? Other times he's winning headers in midfield, intercepting in front of defence, or just moving the ball around. Sometimes backwards too much but he's a DM. He gets all over the pitch helping out in multiple roles.

Jack of all trades but master of none, certainly. I'm not saying he's been amazing or anything but some people just love to give him shit when it's not even warranted.
 
Playing football would be a better option, because most of the long balls are getting hoovered up though...
Too many players aren't brave enough to play through a press though, they either play safe passes back where they came from or start coming way too deep and play in safe areas where the opponent let's them.

Got to earn the right to play.

Not sure what you've been watching with Dendoncker. He's been running about contributing little. When the situation comes to break up play he arrives on the season far too late. He is a huge weak link and the reason the 3 attacking midfielders aren't getting enough of the ball.
 
My stream has finally settled down, hopefully be OK now. Kept jumping back 20 mins randomly.
 
Apologies for expecting a professional footballer to be able to open his body up and find a corner 7 yards out. Pathetic finishing.
I guess every actual striker that has played the game is pathetic too then. All players including the world class ones have had chances saved or have missed from that range.

It's your expectations that are pathetic.
 
Oh look, Donk wins the ball from a Leeds attack, brings it out and starts an attack.

Sorry I mean ugh he's shite....
 
Donk almost scores from a corner but for a good save.

Well on top at the moment. Beautiful bit of skill by Neto earlier.
