With hindsight...

He took a gamble that didn't work. At 4-0 he goes back to a defensive midfielder with Mendy. And takes Maddison off. Then we score two goals.
 
Only a mistake in that he didn't replace him with Mendy.
Ndidi was one of 8 or 9 that could have been subbed without complaint.

Not sure how Ricardo stayed on so long, it's tragic to see how much the injury had taken from him. Just hope a good pre season can help him back.
 
Mendy added some much needed energy and tempo. For a player that’s played so few games recently we are lucky to have him.

Maddison on the other hand. How is it possible for a professional to possess so little leg power when in front of goal? I can flick a football harder. The scuff machine.

Don't see why he should even be starting games at the moment. Give him 20-25 in the second half. We don't need poser's at the minute, we need strong characters.
 
I think it’s as I feared- all have an eye on FA Cup final. Ironically it is the player most needed that went off injured.
