We are so AWFUL in creating chances. So we NEED a creative player on the left, either Saka, Pepe, or willian, I dont care. Auba is NOT a creative player and never will be. He is a goalscorer. Play a creative player on the left, and let laca and auba fight it out in the middle.
Last night we had only Saka and Tierney that were to create consistently, bar a few pings from luiz.
We were not creative last year either.
Auba's goals come from his own movement - very intelligent. He opens up opportunities for himself or creates space where we don;t have to be particularly creative to find him. That has always been his major strength.
He's not doing it this year so far. He looks lazy.
Yes, last year we were not creative, this year its even worse and simply not working. We look totally flat now we are not relying on auba to save us. Whether or not the lack of auba's goals is due to laziness, or the inability to find him, or teams know now how to set up for auba, or a combination of all, is not the most relavant, as we cant find neither pepe or lacazette either. Creativity is now our biggest issue and it needs changes NOW. Bar a few pings from Luiz last night, we were so f***ing predictable.
At this point I dont care who starts central for us. Our creativity in centre midfield is dead so all we can do is adjust our wingers to add in creativity.
