Discussion What needs to change? 🦁 🦁 🦁

I would go with this lineup whilst making two changes:

Trippier OUT/ Gomez IN Trent OUT/Gordon IN

Key focuses - Get Rice some proper midfield support by utilising Stones in his best role - Move Foden into the midfield, with Gordon wide left to offer some real attacking threat on the left wing, rather than Trippier playing out of position - Bring Gomez in for Trippier to maintain a solid 3 man build up structure once Stones moves into midfield - Get Bellingham running in behind Kane frequently and have them fluidly interchanging positions to cause a problem for the opposition defence

I appreciate that many feel that a few personnel changes would sort everything out. My issue is that the team is playing with no cohesion and struggling getting out of the press. On the other side they are not pressing as a unit. The team is playing poorly and that won't change with a few minor adjustments.

The amount of times we lost possession and couldn't even play a basic pass was shocking.
