Looked off the pace from the first minutes with misplaced passes and a general lack of zip. Wasn’t helped by de Bruyne and Gündogan failing to get into space between the lines, however. Don’t even want to see him on the bench for the next two games.
Pep never stops innovating.Actually, they both did that pretty well. What they both did poorly was fail to stay in the middle with Ferny. This gave him few easy passing options. Hence the penchant by Dihno to cough iu the ball today.
That said, it seemed this was by design. And Walker/Danilo were the 2 who were meant to help Dihno in the middle as both played signufasign minutes in that area.
