It's the janmaat sissoko combo down the right that's getting mullered. A full back that likes to bomb on and a right sides midfielder who doesn't track back

Sissoko is providing assists at least. Stupid of Janmaat to follow him all the way and leave a massive gap every time

The positives - mitrovic and Perez continue to look a handful together. Sissoko and wijnaldum both look dangerous going forward. Elliot hasn't looked totally shite.

 

The negatives - sissoko's forward play has seemingly come at the expense of him doing any defensive work whatsoever. The whole back four and the two holding midfielders have been shaky.

Aye agree about Sissoko, great end product at last but zero protection for Janmaat. Although both Janmaat and Dummett were sleeping for the second goal.

 

We should be talking about some good forward play yet we look like we could ship a couple of more goals here so tons of nerves.

We just need to plug the gaps though, The positive thing in this game is that Norwich are defending badly in general (i.e. no one specific thing) but we're defending badly based on one side of the pitch which we're leaving underprotected. We should be able to address this without sacrificing any attacking potency going into the second half. Harder for Norwich to correct their issues, I think.

Anita on for Tiote and tell Janmaat he's not allowed past the half way line. Sorted

 

Agree that we should get Tiote off - he's just going to be sent off and make the task even harder later on in the game. He's also been caught in possession at least twice.
