We lack wingers that can beat their markers and put in few crosses as well. Neither Amoah or Licht are those type of players.
I find it hard to grasp that our defenders have most passes per game. Our possession based football is basically passing between Chiello, Bonbon and Barza with Pirlo occasionally picking Licht or Vidal's clever runs.
Little exaggerating I know but it bothers me. We played such a beautiful football 2 years ago and now this.
Well, Isla and peluso are supposed to be adept crossers.
We dont got dribbelers, but asamoah and lichtsteiner are very good at running at/behind the opposing defence, with draws players off their markers and creates space.
Lastly, with tevez-vucinic we got skillfull central players and with llorente a good targetstriker
This is a good setup to start any game, and isla/peluso + llorente can be added at any time to change the play from bulldozing the flanks, to a crossing bombardement.
However, i'm a total fucking noob, because you dont play a tall attacker against strong defenders.
No, you play crossers on the wing that cant pass it over the floor or make foward runs, and then have fast strikers in the center. Thats how its done.

He will only play against teams who have defenders the size of Giovinco.
Would he play if we'd drew barcelona ?
Most of the team is pintsized, but Pique is rather big
perhaps not do it. They got a tall player
