This man is a Rolls Royce. His positional play is just superb and he won it again and again and distributed it brilliantly. Kovacic and Kante is a difficult pairing but one look at the stats will prove, I am certain, that he was the midfield boss.
He has Pep's mentality. Doesn't take tactical mistakes lightly. :)I’ve ran out of words for this guy. An irreplaceable giant.
One thing I loved seeing was in the first half, we were pressing Chelsea and let them out too easy. When it went out, he turned around and unleashed a bollocking on Grealish and Cancelo - both of which acknowledged it. I know it’s nothing new in football but it’s definitely not something we’re used to seeing in this team.
