I agree that the attacking play was comically nonexistent, but the build up play actually looked good (at least until Muyumba showed up). The team struggled playing out of the back earlier in the season. That’s something to build off of.
One note - they should abstain from playing Gregersen the ball if it’ll put him under pressure. He panicked and turned over the ball several times. He got bailed out yesterday because Atlanta was playing so defensively but that stuff has cost Atlanta numerous times this year.
Typical euro coach defense first then attacking. Thr players we have want to run and score that’s the issue they don’t want a “pattern of play” they want to run onto a pass. Simple fix new players

Deila's quotes reinforce my suspicions that he's trying to make a point to someone in the FO:
"You see, we're a lot more likely to get results if we're defensive-minded."
October 19th can't get here soon enough.

"More crosses" like Brooks Lennon is actually the one coaching the team
