Can't blame the utterly frustrating Benny for everything, and in hindsight we didn't force Pope into one save, (the one he should of saved he didn't) 10 shots, 1 on target, and that went in. So even if he had of passed somes times it would be fair to guestimate that it would end up in row Z
Why pass to someone who can't convert the chances.
On recent evidence the player most likely to cause problems for people in Row Z has been the aforementioned Benrahma. I don’t think anyone is blaming him for everything that went wrong yesterday but I for one can’t think of any positive contribution he made. And it’s not only lack of ability either is it?

And imo it’s funny on another thread there’s a discussion about how good our squad is. And in the eyes of quite a few Benrahma has been our stand out player this season. Nuff said imo. ;)
Which probably is why we find ourselves in the position we are in.....if true

We could of had maybe more chances if Benrahma released the ball quicker and made better decisions with the ball.

A very frustrating player, even more so than Antonio.
Both don’t seem to have a football brain cell between them.

Not blaming Benrahma, just saying if he made the right decisions yesterday especially first half then our chances would have been more clear cut.
Antonio row Z, maybe. Bowen I’m sure is able to convert and there a couple of times he could have put him in.
It’s not what you do it is the way that you do it.
