their failure to manage to club leaves managers with a patchwork squad where players simply don't fit together, remember Ole didn't say much about the Glazers and how the club is run but he said one thing, Sancho was identified as a Right-winger of choice and when he arrived he told Ole he prefers playing on the left. that's the kind of incompetence ETH is surrounded with.

Last season was built on the defensive output of Case-Licha and Varane

Casemiro has been simply not the same since his second red card and has been rather awful this season.

Licha is out.

he has no left-backs.

one thing you can blame him for I guess is continuing to play Casemiro instead of putting Lindelof at LB and playing Maguire and Amrabat at 6.

but the team is visibly mentally fragile as it has been for a long time.

Honestly I am losing faith in even Bruno, I don't remember him ever stepping up in a "big game" meaning a game with a lot of pressure, but I do remember him shouting at Dalot, Casemiro, Antony etc.
