I have been thinking this for a while now, but feel like our players/playstyle is overcoached. Several times this season our players seem to take an extra 2/3 touches looking around where they could have played a faster, more aggressive first time pass to someone. They take too long assessing shapes and patterns, and that player that was free is now marked. White has been particularly bad for this compared to last year. I do not doubt these players ability to play fast free flowing football, but think they are being instructed too much.
Basically feel like we are missing freedom on the pitch and it makes us 1. worse in some ways and 2. a lot more boring to watch currently
