I think with Roberts he's just trying too hard plus teams know more about him now, I still believe he'll come good this season. With Ruben he needs to be further up the pitch, he's wasted further back and became such a good player at the end of last season due to his threat going forward. With these two playing as well as they could be then we will always be a threat but they're off the boil at the moment.
Yes cf, they try doing too much and it isn't team play. It's strange to see one who should be further upfield waiting for the telling pass coming back into one's own half to find it, Harry Kane does it all the time - but that's Harry Kane. Pulling back to help defend a corner is one thing but leaving no receiver for a hefty clearance but a lonesome Wooton just leads to the ball coming back at one.
