A simple up, back and through pattern and we could exploit this space, Tonali did in the first half and he got a shot off from it, then never to be seen again. So annoying, we just needed a bit more settled possession. 8/ #NUFC

The space between the players, it's too wide. I understand it makes us harder to press but it also makes it harder for us to build out. Very often leads to us going long and rely on second balls to progress play, it's not a reliable way to build out and we need more solutions in this phase. #NUFC 6/

A lot of the initial pressure came from Bruno or Tonali, trying to block off them central lanes, we just didn't want them to move centrally. Which usually leads to the opposition moving the ball wide. Pressing was a really positive takeaway for me that. 2/ #NUFC
