Apart from the win, best thing today was seeing Stones back in midfield, and just about every where else on the field.

Ortega distribution today was woeful.

People will talk about how Rodri was badly missed (and he was), but I'm absolutely delighted to have Stones back. He's simply incredible.
Correct, it was Foden.Some very glaring inconsistencies in the refereeing made that a lot harder than it should have been.
We ended up with double the number of bookings and I can't even remember us putting a tackle in other than the Foden one which was given as a foul despite it being the cleanest challenge you'll see this year.
Akanji's first booking, it wasn't even Akanji who committed the initial foul.

Good result despite the poor second half.
Doku makes the hard look easy and vice versa at times, good player but can do better in the final third, should've come off earlier.
Akanji made a similar mistake vs Wolves for Hwangs goal, doesn't clear the ball from danger and it costs us a goal, poor defending, he's not in our strongest 11 for me.

Proverbial game of two halves. 1st half, excellent. 2nd half, gash.

good first half, poor second half and looked like we were struggling fitness wise which is unusual.
Lot of good things but we just dont have a killer instinct like we did last season...we are getting into great areas but whether its the final pass/cross, or taking the wrong option/safe option we are just not hitting the heights we were last season...however its also the first time since the very start of the season where we have had nearly a full squad to go from....
Hopefully a load of them get a rest mid week - absolutely no need to go full strength or anywhere near it vs Young Boys in the CL......we are practically through and will go through top of the group....Do not play Stones for starters and you could argue against resting Haaland, Bernardo, Foden and Rodri as well...alongside Gvardiol and Walker
Losing Akanji for the derby is shit however...his pace vs the lack of it by other options would have been very useful against their speed and undoubted tactic of playing on the break...sure Pep will account for that however.
