My lone lletget critcism from last game is that a tidier performance could have opened a new(ish) attacking revenue stream: The Barnstorming CM™
We usually think of our CMs adding danger via the long diagonal or arriving late in the box but now we're also seeing early vertical runs from deep off the false 9
Any of our 3 CMs are capable of racing beyond their defenders in the midfield line to overload the point of attack
We just need a bit more elegance from the false 9. Different opponent, different conditions, but jesus ferreira found those runs nicely back in february
plus he did this one he was very good in that game
