No guarantees. If the players go out motivated and willing to fight we are good. I am not overly optimistic though. Chelsea should have been wake up call but we didn't see the team react in the way we expected against Alaves.
Flick's visible disappointment said it all.

Don't think it was about Bernal, Martin or some other B option either. There's probably issues with some of the (guaranteed) starters. Raphinha the only one in the clear here.

Honestly, im more confident that we lost in this part of the season. Last season we smoked everyone and by the end we looked gassed as fuck. I believe that this season would have a lot of turnovers in form from every single club there is.

Truth
Concur @Kul_z , between injuries and loss of key central defender and still top of the table at halfway point despite not being in top form nevermind even approaching last season’s level bodes well in that there is massive room for improvement they have in their tank

Question is, much like Flick’s dejected incident I don’t see a team playing with the requisite intensity with any consistency - perhaps they had more to prove last season and/or there are too many young players who have not experienced sustained success. I used to say this a lot when I exclusively watched the NBA, winning to get there is one thing - another thing altogether to avoid complacency (esp. with a young group)
