Shooting Star

I like Neal and was delighted that he scored today. However, he did that at least twice today. Towards the beginning of the game Welbeck had beaten his man, needed support, and Maupay was merely jogging into the box. It was like he didn't actually want to get in a goal-scoring situation.There were many examples of this, but the one that stood out to me the most was about half an hour in, when march was set through by a brilliant pass from bissouma, and ends up having to take a speculative shot from a ridiculous angle, because nobody is in any sort of proximity to him. The replay cuts to maupay and welbeck about thirty paces behind, looking like they'd both just woken up from a nap, and making absolutely no effort to get involved. So many times today the midfield had the ball in the final third, and ended up having to pass it back as again, there was no movement from any of maupay, trossard or welbeck.
Solly at the moment is the only one with the desire to get into good positions for me.
