Nations League.

Man, he was great in that first half.

Gvardiol had a couple of shaky moments today, but also some great ones. I thought Dias was fine. I wish he'd stop putting his hands behind his back, though. The problem for me today, especially in the second half, was the midfield. They were getting at our defense far too quickly and easily.

I don't like him, but Ronaldo doing that in La Liga's heyday is remarkable.

Did you see that Walker cameo? It was not that Lewis needed that to secure his spot, but it all guaranteed it.

An international break after three games when the Euros just ended is insanity.

People want the excitement of Doku, the control of Bernardo/Grealish, and the goal-scoring of Foden all in one player. Lol. We did potentially have all of that in one player, but unfortunately, his ankle is broken! ;)

I thought he was good, tbh. *ducks for cover* That was definitely a yellow on KDB. I can't remember the second one, but he carded the West Ham players quicker than most, and rightfully so.

Wow. That's an actual good analysis in regard to the own goal. Dias' putting his hands behind his back completely limits one's ability to adjust accordingly. The handball rules need complete reforming.

He's a freak. Just insane, but if I'm nitpicking, there was a few oppurtunities where Lewis or Doku had it and he seemed stuck in two minds, and didn't attack the front or near post. Again, I'm nitpicking here.

I thought he was brilliant. His work rate is nuts. Hopefully, that was a cramp vs a pulled hammy, but it didn't look great. 'Good' timing if it is the latter.

Kudus had a few good opportunities, but none of them were due to him not being a capable defender. Maybe that one in the first half where he was a bit too far off Kudus, and he pushed a shot wide, but the others were down to our midfield being bypassed or getting counterattacked. Even then, he...

I thought he could have used his legs in the midfield in the second half, but he was great on the wing. He so obviously has a ton of talent.

Much better. I thought he was a little lazy off of the ball, though, which was surprising.

It's tough to just come in like that after not playing for a while, but goodness... We lose that game if he starts.

We HAVE to stop giving up on players so soon. He played a beautiful pass to KDB, who makes that goal 99 times out of 100. He caused two cards for their defenders. I agree that Bobb will start when he gets back, but Doku is playing fine. He's only 22. He's rough around the edges, but Pep's job...

Tactical pulling so he can spend the break with his family ;)

It was a weird game. We looked unbelievable in the first half, but our midfield was played through time and time again in the second half. We indeed rode our luck at times, but so did they two times over. Buzzing for Nunes. Idk how people can bracket him with Phillips; he so clearly has an...

So, is it fair to assume Savinho is pulling out of Brazil duty?

But multiple players that can play out there if push comes to shove(Bernardo, McAtee, Nunes, etc)
