Overall more bad than good today. Can't be missing those chances.

His pass for the first goal was the most decisive offensive contribution tonight. Does it often but shouldn't go unnoticed. Bravo kid.

MOTM tonight

Impressed me so far

We weren't just poor against Rayo. We've been poor for all three games. Rayo were just the toughest opponent.

The problem for me is that we're not really playing full throttle attacking football anymore. We've gradually drifted back towards possession based attacking and are now caught somewhere in the middle. As a result, Raphinha doesn't really know what to do with himself. He can't really create...

Poor game but still notable how our connection to the attack disappeared when he was subbed. He does find those advantageous spaces to pick it up. Fermin in comparison was invisible.

And those 1v1 saves Joan had to make?

Sure but they could have scored 3 or 4 goals too.

Even when the offside trap works, it gives me no pleasure. Yeah great, they mistimed their run by half a second and we survive by a technicality. Not very inspiring.

Vini just spamming those runs into the box without any idea what to do

anyone with a stream? my usual site is down

With how he plays football, perhaps we shouldn't be surprised that this is the outcome. It's not even that he puts himself into challenges, it's the way he kind of stumbles forward into everythhing without really seeming in control of his footing. You can be a hard hitter and willingly put...

He has looked a bit polite and sensible, a bit hesitant to really throw himself into the fight. Goes for the dribble, then has to balance it out by passing it backwards the next two times.

Don't like the idea of selling a homegrown who is currently thriving just to have a little money to spend. In any case that sentiment needs to be added as a premium on top of his market value. He might be worth 50 mil but selling him for that would be shameful imo.

A thing that has gone under the radar is the disappearance of counter attacks from our game. Was a big part of our winning strategy for Flicks first six months, then gradually just went away. Wonder what happened.

RM don't look fantastic defensively, but at least they put it to their opponents to come up with some kind of orchestrated move. Which lower level teams are liable to fuck up by themselves. What we're doing is opening the door for chances that require little creativity or skill or even...

He's had long term problems with his achilles and calf muscle so it is likely some discomfort in that area, which would warrant caution. Might have developed into some kind of chronic soft tissue problem in the lower legs. With the achilles, as soon as the discomfort is there, it is only going...

his name is pronounced bar-da-dji tho, isn't it?

Tuned in at 1-0 and the first things I noticed were Araujo's unnecessary fouls and Fermin failing to track back. Watch his jogging pace here. Frenkie and Pedri both overtake him in the track back and Pedri ends up saving us. These things matter. https://streamable.com/0vzaxd Here he gets beat...
