It's obvious that the old midfield trio of Milner/Wijnaldum/Henderson lack the ability of consistently transitioning the ball from the middle of the pitch to our attack in the final third of the same. This has taken off the shine of our high intensity attack as our attacking trio now have to play deeper to get the ball.
We miss the Ox badly and Lallana does not seem to be the creative player he once was 2 seasons ago before all his injuries. So the above trio of Fabinho/Keita/Shaqiri need to be given a chance now. Naturally if we could get a Fekir like player in January would be ideal.

We did say the same last season about Man City. City had a great year winning the Premier league with 100+ pts.
The same Man City team this season was again excellent.
What happened last season CL SF, Liverpool beat them when they were supposed to be invincible.
I reckoned that this season will be long and hard. Whoever came thru Jan and Feb with most points and no major injuries will win the league.
