After 4 games this season I think it's pretty clear we're struggling defensively. The media seem to be implying it's down to lampard attacking style which I think is a load of rubbish to be honest. The fact we're attacking has nothing to do with the poor performances/individual mistakes the defence is making. Iv been pinning my hopes on the return of rudiger and reece James, but do you see us getting to a point where we're defensively solid this season with the personell we've got?

I'm horrified by how often an opposition player simply runs with the ball through our midfield and defence with nobody determinedly tracking nor getting hold of him.

Yes. Especially with Kante & RJ.
Problems don't just lie with the defensive line, starts with midfield. Passive or slow.
Order of importance: Kante, RJ, Rudi

Emerson has been one of our most consistently top performer thus far.

Yeah too passive, always on a yellow as well.
Kovacic and Kante will be a more suited combo.
Rudiger back in the side is paramount too, no organisation at the back with the current two
