Off the top of my head

The last goal we scored was a counter attacking goal

At least two of the goals we scored against City were on the counter

Then there is Sporting Lisbon, Palace, West Ham, the third goal against Southampton at home.

I think in too many games it’s more been about huffing and puffing against teams who sit deep to take the lead and then having used up so much energy we decide to sit off.

There is certainly no pathological aversion to it, maybe just not the confidence to pull it off
