Maybe I am being a bit negative, but the players all look rattled as frick. When the game isn’t going well, they have 0 answer.

Just the last 3 games, we look like we have 0 speed out on the pitch. There’s just no answer when we can’t pass our way into the net.

I think a big part of it is fatigue, but man they just look bad

I would agree with that. I think we need a dynamic striker this summer who possesses speed and can actually fricking finish a chance.

It is clear Martinelli hasn't been 100% all season. Trossard isn't fast but isn't slow either. Jesus has speed and technique but his knees are shot so speed may not be there for long especially with how intense we play.

Saka has speed and technique but has also been injured all season.

We need speed up front and honestly in midfield as well. Rice is the only deep lying player in the midfield who isn't slow as frick in the team. We need someone who can create and complement Rice.

We are close. I truly believe that. I've long thought next season has to be the one we win the league. Also doesn't mean I think we are done this season but we all know it will be difficult especially with those financial doping figs having an easy run in

At least we were in the thick of things in both PL and CL but I get so pissed off at “falling apart” April.
