Issue today wasnt so much how jose set them up, it was the players not playing well outside ndombele going forward, reguilon wasnt bad either, but when your lwb is your biggest threat in the box it's not a high firing attack
Also now 3 games in a row where a team has just sat back until jose took ndombele off and then just took over, maybe leave him on, it's not a fitness issue.

Basically as soon as Kane and Son came off the boil, we’ve had problems. Thankfully they were good through the NLD, because we would have suffered a similar fate. I am not looking forward to Wednesday because you know we’ll setup the same way; Fulham can easily hit us for a goal and we’re stuck with another draw or loss.
Ndombele was excellent today. I feel like it’s combination of the setup and our usual problems with trying to breakdown tight defences. But we basically did nothing for ~70 minutes today and that’s just not good enough.
