We're so vulnerable at transition to defence and letting the opposition playing between the lines. Also our the positions of our defenders in the centre are not good when the ball is on one of the flanks. Most of the time they are defending on the outside but should be on the inside.
This team needs much more than a top defensive midfielder to be in the top 4 again.
And Nunez is not a striker for this system let alone this league. His basic technique is atracious for a top striker. That control of the last ball was so poor although it was a bad pass. Should have done much better and could have decided the match.
Before anyone from Real have received the ball, they already know where its going next.
The difference compare to us is, we still have to look and decide. And pass it backwards as a result
