Should have shook hands pre-match and saved ourselves 2 hours.

Fuck that kit off

Solid. Boring. Won’t matter come game week 8 anyway.

Gundy needs to practice his headers.

Too pedestrian better buck their ideas up for Sunday.

Not our finest display, but they are an elite side, horrible to play against. Take the draw on the chin and on to the next one.

The tactics were lethargic. Pep was lethargic. The players were lethargic. It happens, but more concerning for me is how easily teams are playing through our midfield time and time again. Someone in the match thread mentioned it, but it feels like with Haaland up front and him not being ‘built’ to press like Jesus or Alvarez, everyone behind him has to cover more ground, and we don’t have the legs to do that. Rodri, Bernardo, Gundo, Phil, KDB, etc., aren’t ‘ground eaters’ for lack of a better word. The player I think could help in this regard is Nunes, but it seems that Pep doesn’t trust him, so I’m not sure what the solution is. For all of Rice’s downsides, the huge bid we made in the summer makes much sense from a tactical standpoint.

We’re so spoiled at home that a draw feels like a loss, but there’s undoubtedly a lot to work on this week.

My eyes have aged few years watching that shite.

Pep really needs to figure out how to play against packed defences, we look clueless and too slow
