Tripps really does need some time off. Yes, majority of them are knackered and have played loads, but it seems deep for Tripps at the moment, he is absolute country miles away from where he usually is, looks completely broken. He needs taking out the firing line.
Honestly, the guy just needs a break and 3-4 weeks away from the team and playing, he's making so many mistakes and it really isn't him. Even his play in open play is poor.
Aye, he's quality, and genuine CL quality in my opinion, thought this game was crying out for him to be fair, but aside from creating 1 or 2 chances with a good couple of runs, he wasn't in it.
On nights like this in the CL, it does hit home that we are another class striker away from troubling teams up front, and having those half chances become real opportunities and more than half chances.
