i think they are doing fine except they lose the ball quite often.
but when they didnt lose the ball they actually push forward quite well, looks threatening.
guess its mistakes you would expect from inexperienced youngsters.
Losing the ball often = not fine.
Guendouzi has been poor today compared to his previous performances. Holding on to the ball far too long and conceding the ball needlessly too many times. He is usually more incisive and decisive with his passing.
Partly what has made his performances great up till date so far is he kept things simple, releasing the ball quickly, quick forward passes, the pass and move, he has done very little of that today instead trying to take on players far too often needlessly.
I am not sure if he has been instructed to do so this time but the previous Guendouzi has been far more effective.
ATM Smith Rowe looks a little too lightweight, just like Nelsson was last season. He definitely has talent but is not ready for the big time just yet. Games like these and the Carabao cup are all he should get. Like Nelson, may probably need to go on loan next year.
