After back-to-back wins we’ve had back-to-back damaging defeats, losing to Spurs at home and then getting eliminated from the League Cup by Liverpool on penalties.
The former stings a lot more than the latter, but combined, it all stings quite a bit. Adding to the general unease is our injury situation, with Maxence Lacroix joining the list of unavailable players after picking up a hamstring problem midweek.
The nearly ever-present Lacroix has been a stabilizing force in the backline. Who will replace him in the center of the back-three? Or perhaps we should move to a back-four?
