We really missed a play maker and these are the type of games where we will continue to struggle unless we sort it out. We can't play fast paced football every game, whether it be down to us not being fully up to it or the opposition limiting us, we just can't always do it.
None of Ox, Gini or Can are capable of threading passes through a set defence like that, both Matip and VVD ppayed far better balls than those 3. Lallana really should have come on much earlier or even started ahead of Gini. Lallana made a difference when he came on, his positioning was better and he could open up angles with his dribbling and quick turns to thread balls through the defence.
We still had a few chances and we really should have scored atleast 1 goal and that could have potentially put a spring in out step while bringing the swans down. But we really just weren't good enough.
Btw it's so fucking hard to watch a game on a phone hahaha.
