It's funny really, Haaland gets absolute daggers for apparently hampering the way we play.

We fail to have a single shot on target today and 'we miss Haaland".

You can't make it up.
Another game where our best performers are the ones not on the pitch.
 
This game is showing why the treble last year was such a mental achievement.
And how luck plays a part. Didn’t we have Sheffield Utd in the semi? Makes a big difference to have a team like that in this game after the CL than someone you expect to face.
 
Big second half for us. We’re marginally off it all over the pitch. Chelsea not great but up for it and quick up front. We need to dig deep and we’ll do it. Come on blues.
 
If he wasn't on loan, I'd be calling for Kalvin Phillips to come on.

Our 'fatigued' millionaires don't deserve anything on this showing.
We've not rotated as much lately. We have a world class bench but Pep isn't using them. Playing this many games for multiple seasons is going to knacker anyone (maybe not Rodri he's unstoppable). Pep feels less creative lately and less inclined to try new things. Maybe it's in the small details and I'm too thick to notice but the old Pep took more risks. Anyone remember Sterling basically playing as wingback vs Madrid in like 2021(?). As much as the stupid losses hurt, Pep overthinking and playing new tactics was fun
