That was pretty much the best line up we can currently field.
& we created almost nothing. Thing is, its been our underlying process for over 2 years now. We normally create very little. In the past we've been saved by being exceptionally clinical with what we do create.
Sadly, that was 60% or more due to one player. Vardy. A lot of the rest was Maddison. Now that JV isn't a factor, & will become less & less of one , we are exposed for what we are. We have no creativity whatsoever.
If we create almost nothing in games WITH Tielemans & Maddison in the side...well, it doesn't need stating really.
The entire squad needs rebuilding from the ground up & thats not happening. & I wouldn't want it doing under Rodgers even if it were possible. This is all the end result of 3 years of mismanagement at board level & prioritising spending away from the playing side. It was always going to be a risk, & it isn't paying off.
We just have to hope that for the next couple of seasons there are 3 to 5 teams in the league that are so ****ing awful they can't finish above us...& that we can lure in a manager who can build a squad.
Oh...& just to rub it in, in the one recent game (Fulham) where we DID create plenty, we couldn't finish anything. Sod's law.
