DEFENSIVE CAPABILITY IS LIMITED WITH 12 GOALS CONCEDED IN 10 MATCHES (AN AVERAGE OF 1.2 GOALS PER GAME), LACK OF STABILITY AND FREQUENTLY LEAVING GAPS DUE TO OVEREMPHASIS ON ATTACKING (EXAMPLE: LOSING 1-0 TO BOCHUM DESPITE HAVING 12 CORNERS)

High reliance on the 4-2-3-1 formation and the lack of creativity from central midfielders (such as Paul Seguin - 0 assists, Kevin Sessa - 0 assists) could leave the formation vulnerable against a tight defense.
