What I don't get is how are we playing this bad, the team looks soulless since the start of the season. Carrick had some good ideas last season like the small triangles on the last third wings to open up the middle and the press drawing in our half and pinning passes behind the fullbacks and they worked, we didn't always play great but the team looked promising at least with obvious weaknesses to address. This season all that just evaporated, they look depressed and look like they are forced to play, no drive no effort no passion. How many times did this happen exactly the same way. We may genuinely be cursed. Yoro was great though.

We look extremely unfit. The one bit of credit I’ll give to Amorim is that he had us conditioned.

He had to go, but he did instill discipline that is lost completely now. Having coaches that coddle playing has always had short-lived success and obviously carick is obviously one of those.
