We need to ditch that 3 man midfield and take more risks. Our play is atrocious to watch at times. We can't have this much quality, except in midfield, and be playing this abysmal brand of football. It doesn't have to be beautiful, but we're misplacing passes, our midfield and attack are disjointed, the midfield doesn't help out the defense, and generally, we don't seem to have a clear gameplan.
I watch Atalanta play, for example, and they have clear ideas. They have nowhere near the personnel we posses, but they press, hustle, and are dangerous every time they go forward. We are so incompetent at counter attacking, and scrape by in a lot of games. A team with Manduzkic, Ronaldo, Dybala, Berna, Costa, and Pjanic shouldn't be scraping by.
