Coaching seems to be overlooked nowadays but just look at Liverpool on Sunday they had a midfield of Lucas, Allen, Henderson, Coutinho and Sterling playing top drawer incisive pass and move football. They're not the best players in the world, they're good players obviously but it's down to Brendan Rodgers' coaching ability that has them playing that way. We don't have a bunch of static dopes playing for us(not all of them anyway), they just obviously weren't being taught all that well or weren't receptive to AVB's methods. Walker and Rose most certainly have it in them to perform the "Zabaleta" type role and a front four of Eriksen/Lamela/Soldado/Adebayor offers potential for the kind of movement you see from City's front four. AVB can say he didn't choose the players we signed but even then, there's no excuse for what we saw on Sunday, the majority of the players he has to choose from are full internationals for some of the best countries in the world, they shouldn't be out there looking like a bunch of strangers and getting humilated by a side with a similar level of talent.
