I thought Thiago might have been it but he's not. Different type of player. Every manager has their way, it's just unfortunate that ours is easy to shut down. Give us space and we'll run riot, squeeze us and pack the defence and we are up against it. 9/10 we'll find a way but we always seem to hit one of these creative barren spells each season.
Absolutely right about us not getting behind lately, I can't remember us once getting behind Leicesters defence.
It's why I advocate the fluid midfield 3 and acting now to land hopefully 2 of the players who could be a part of that for a long long time at the club with the skills to unlock defences, score goals, press and counter press, defend and bully opposition midfields as Hendo, Gini and Millie used to
