Inter (H) | CL | Post Match Thread

[willipp]

Big difference is inters midfield 3 are 100% better than arsenal's on the ball rice will want 3 or 4 touches and partey gives the ball away for fun.

Yeah i was super impressed with Barella last night. Seen him a few times and always thought a good player, but last night i thought he looked a top top player.

Had a feeling it might end up that way. I think Inter are a good side but I also think Pep has a bit of an obsession with the defensive ability of Italian sides and the fact they're hard to beat. Put them on a pedestal, and showed the CL final to the players as an example of how they were hard to beat....that was a major final and part of a treble as well as being a major missing piece for us, we didn't play our best.

Needed to play our usual game rather than big them up. But it is what it is. A good test for us, a few off the boil and but for Foden's ring rust and Gundo's finishing touch missing we would have won. Will be a decent enough point come the end of the league phase.

A great warm up for Arsenal if nothing else.

If they do.
With themselves in the way, taking selfies.

Preferred the orchestra to the usual light show, even got the crowd joining in at points.

That was one of the (for me anyway) top 3 teams in world football. I think they'll definitely be semi finals or maybe could even win it. So a draw against these when not playing particularly well is a good solid result in the scheme of things. I am however, a little bit worried about the drop off in the last two games and hope we find our form on Sunday.

Barella is top-notch, just like a young Modric, and only 27, with 4-5 years left at his peak. Imagine him playing alongside Rodri!

Thought City looked well under par but that the game could have gone either way. Draw was probably the right result.

It being us back to earth, which maybe we needed. I was surprised how well we started the season and then you get a bit carried away and think things will continue that way, but it shows you are never far from a poor result in football.

We are being carved open too easily due to the press not being quite right. Arsenal will carry more of a threat so a wake up call.

The fact we created virtually nothing all game and they had some incredibly good opportunities that they squandered when you'd expect a team far poorer than them to take.

Gundo had the best two chances mate..but yeah Inter did play well and they are a good team who will give problems to anyone they play.
