The managers soft spot for Flanagan is a huge problem for us when it comes to going forward / especially in formation played today
No left foot so has to turn in, tims knew he wasn’t going to go forward down the byline , so much easier to defend against
Ultimately however, money talks , and Edouard was the real difference today (& he is the most expensive player on the pitch )we almost got away with our formation / player selection but for him, nobody else for the tims looked like doing anything and needed error by goldson to get them the goal (the second was just us chasing the game)
very disappointing game from our side , European comedown and feeling of what if by not going with Morelos / Jones from start and going for them from the off,
sadly real questions marks about the formation / players when we play higher standard of team, as Tav getting hung out to dry down his side imho
Left back position should’ve been addressed , can’t get away with a natural right back over there with no left foot playing as cover against the more organised / profession / cynical team like the tims
