Fantastic first half, we could have/should have been well clear of them. Second half we were clearly out on our legs, it was really confusing that Pep didn't make changes. I suppose the issue was that we had to get Jesus on so early, but you could see that KDB was fucked from about 60mins on.
Something that really struck me was the out-ball from Rodri into KDB, that completely negated the press from Liverpool in the first half. The tried to press in 3's in the second half and it worked better for them but it was mostly due to our guys running out of gas as there was still loads of space for us to get into. I think Otamendi did really well considering he had only trained for 2 days prior to this game. I was also REALLY impressed with how Stones took the ball into midfield with more purpose and was passing through the lines again. The long term goal will be for him and Rodri to interchange mid-game, they were doing it quite a bit in this game and they both looked really comfortable, some really good signs there.
Big shame that Sane had to come off, he had already skinned TAA 2/3 times before that and i think we would have scored more had he been ok, we don't have anyone that has his direct ability in the squad.
