Don't want to single out individuals but that second half was very poor. Massive gulf in class between the first 15 and the replacements. Some of these need to find another home.

You can integrate one or 2 of those fringe players in the team during the season and although the skill will drop off slightly it won’t be like replacing 5 of our very best players with 5 of the second string.

Pep is managing the squad but he can’t get everything 100% correct and he’ll be disappointed at the drop off in performance. If any of those players (who all needed a rest) had suffered an injury at 3-0 up there would be criticism that Pep didn’t act early enough.

We’ve all seen it in the past on here, “should put his best team out then make subs when we’re 3-0 up”

Well he did today and it worked whichever way you look at it, not plain sailing but no harm done.

We've just won 3-1.... This place at times.....

I'm sitting here laughing my ass off at some of the absolute dumb shit I'm reading on here. I have to think people are fucking around, trying to be funny? At least I hope so...

The backups played like backups.

3 points, no injuries, we looked great when it mattered, and nearly everyone got a rest. I will happily take that every single time

Pep, if we are still 3 goals to the good at the end of the first half on Wednesday do NOT make the same substitutions that you did on Saturday!

There is zero chance of him making the same subs.

Really? Is someone passing out free gummies.

Get the comments on the drab second half but putting 5 subs on tells me one thing. Pep is going all out to win the CL. No messing about.

Don't get the moaning, what did we expect today? Played out as most expected I'd of thought, piss easy, over by half time,rest the best for bigger and harder games? Great result without breaking sweat. Up the Blues. Onward and Upward.
