Perhaps the thing some identified while Frankie and Pedri were out is true. we were a better team without them on the field.
Frankie is too anonymous most of the time. Pedri is too slow and casual.
Sergi Roberto for all his faults makes runs all the time and hardly makes mistakes passing. Christensen is an actual defender so his contribution in midfield was invaluable and kudos to Xavi for using him there.
that formation also pushed Gundo forward, to a much more fitting position.
All in all, a less technical midfield of gundo, chris, bob proved to be a better midfield than gundo, pedri, fdj.
