A team perilously short of quality has lurched from one setback to the next.Sean Dyche at one point had been viewed as a potential saviour. Perhaps he may still be.
Neal Maupay or youngster Ellis Simms up front? Tom Davies or Mason Holgate to replace Idrissa Gueye at the base of midfield? In the first 40, they restricted Arsenal to an expected goals of just 0.02. In the ensuing 50 minutes of football that had soared to nearly 3. Against Leeds and Villa, they pressed high and dictated most of the play on their terms. Passes per defensive action counts how many passes a team allows the opposition to make before attempting to win the ball back and is a proxy for pressing intensity. The lower the number the better.
Defeat at the Emirates was never going to define this season in the way upcoming games against Nottingham Forest and Brentford will. But the nature of their collapse did leave a sour taste and bloat their goals against column, which could be key.
