I forgot about Bernardo in my predicted XI. I reckon this is what Pep goes with.

It's okay to have a shite game, but he looked utterly uninterested.

When did he struggle to defend today? The chances that fell to Rashford were anyone but his fault.

As I said, a lot more good than bad... And "nothing raw" is definitely hyperbole, but I'm excited for him nonetheless.

Jacobs' is a shit source. Maybe that's true, but it doesn't make a lot of sense to me, given we have plenty of wingers.

I see quite a bit of criticism of him, which is odd, as I thought he was good, too.

Tough opener to the season. I know Chelsea has managed to turn themselves into a bit of a laugh in the last few years, but I think there's too much talent in their squad not to get top four this season, at least. Looks like bookmakers believe it will be a tough match for us, too. I think a point...

He was suspended, anyway.

The praise feels a little over the top. It's definitely more good than bad, but definitely also quite raw. I love his confidence in taking his penalty.

I specifically called out Dias and Akanji for being poor in the post-match thread as well. And I can love a player's game and also admit he's had a crap pre-season, which he has.

He was taken off, but I see their fans saying he was MOTM despite the loss. I'm not too surprised. I thought he should have gone to a Championship club.

? I love Gvardiol, but he's objectively been miles off it in the three pre-season games he's been involved in thus far.

He did. Better than Mount ;)

Why not?

I thought he was one of our better senior players.

Wildly harsh. He played fine. Some heavy touches, but still solid.

Great, again. He goes spells without getting involved as much as I'd like, but when he does get on it, you feel something's going to happen.

His head has not looked in it all pre-season.

He was so good. I struggle to remember him putting a single foot wrong.

I I just watched it back, and it wasn't a stepover. Okay, he got the ball taken off of him, but there was a ton of blues between them and our goal. It was awful defending from our backline and midfield.
