I think lucas is asked to do too much by himself, there are huge gaps all over the midfield, the defense is too deep and his midfield partner (adam) goes missing for long periods offering nothing going forwards or back the other way.
far as I can see lucas is the best served at sheilding the defense and unfortunately they need shielding.

Yes this

Except Lucas doesn't shield the defence, he runs around aimlessly a lot though. He follows the ball around and has no sense of positioning or discipline. He chases stupid causes out wide to make tackles, while leaving gaping holes in the middle of the park.
Adam was the only midfielder to make any tackles in front of our centre backs or around our own box.
