Players didn't go over halfway because everytime we did the opposition would easily score, on the weekend we gave up 2 goals and 3 more absolute sitters by playing so high. So fans can get excited by it but it will result in worse results than what we saw under Conte.

Conte's job wasn't to provide "exciting" losses, it was to win games and finish as high as possible, that is what he did better than anyone else could given the absolute garbage he was given for players.
They played scared I dont know how anyone could watch the difference in 1st and 2nd halfs last year and not see conte was limiting the movement of the midfield, that coupled with an off year for son, left kane as the only real option in creating goals

In terms of the goals and chances to brentford, it's a new system, plenty of teams have gone through that, if they are still allowing chances like that in january then it's an issue
