The problems are clear to see (3 replies)

1) We are unable to play from the back to front in possession, so even after a few tippy tappies someone launches it

2) We must have the weakest aerial ability in our history up front to win the long ball so back it comes every time anyway.

3) The occasional effort to move the full backs forward and play it aerially to flick on doesn’t work as Ruddy rarely finds them or the opposition easily mark for it, and it gets the fullbacks out of position.

4) The squad have lost all self belief and unity, they are a ghost of the togetherness they showed pre - Rooney, as are the fans.
