As opposed to Villa who have been dominated, and also created nothing. Honestly, I swear sometimes two thirds of the people on this board would find a five and complain it's not a ten.
At the risk of sounding like a heretic, I wonder what we'd look like if we sacrificed one of Sangare and Anderson to add an extra midfielder capable of playing in the last third, or a second forward.
Several times MGW has pushed up alongside Jesus and there has been a gaping hole between them and Sangare / Ando, neither of whom look like they want to run with the ball. So it goes to the (invariably double marked) wingers, who tend not to be able to beat their man and have to recycle possession backwards.
No wonder we end up with defenders having to take shots from outside the box. At least one has gone in this time.
