Anyway no point going on about it I warned about this happening 3 seasons ago, the issue with that situation wasn’t Gakpo it was a collectively issue of our players having become increasingly shitter on the counter, players not making great runs, going too early, not playing the right ball, I called it all happening
I thought Nunez should have just held his position
We had a few fails on not doing the basics of playing the percentages throughout that game too, when players had to go across the keeper because we had 2 players there to pounce on anything if the keeper saved it
It pisses me off every game were so fucking shite at playing the percentages it should be coached to kids from a very young age so thry grow up making the right decisions in those situations it is the most basic of things that every professional footballer should understand
You don’t have a great or the best of angles for your shot or to find a team mate in the box, but there are 2 around the far post who are infinitely more likely to score (as McTominay did) by you firing your shot on target across the keeper forcing him to parry
It’s that simple and we have consistently failed at that under Jurgen
