What we need to do is get the ball out left more, rather than so much play being sent down the right to Saka/Odegaard

Which btw means Martinelli gets underused, it may be one of the reasons he's not developed as much as we might hope

Much as I like Gabriel, he's particularly culpable of almost completely ignoring our left hand side when he's looking to progress the ball
I've mentioned that Gabriel thing before, he's really quite reluctant to distribute to the left, though part of me thinks he knows how subpar both players there are.

I totally agree with your assessment of Captain Marvel, though I'd give him one more season to redeem himself, but I think we should identify a solid successor this summer as it make sense and on average it takes us over a year to realise any transfer target
