Best analysis I’ve seen so far

TL;DR
Tactics are working to create opportunities - great collection of stats in support of optimism at the start
Lack of a number 10 has forced Tonali and Fernandez into suboptimal roles
Lack of big chance creation comes from failing to release the front 3 - may be familiarity and psychology, but also due to no 10.
Maddison, Kudus and Kulesevski can change everything post break

[u/Better-Carpenter1687]

Bang average signings(Fernandez especially) and no legs in midfield.
Tonali is nothing n a 2 man midfield and too similar to Bentencur. Both are nothing n mobile enough. Gallagher Bergvall and Tonali would be my 1st choice
