That could be their Atletico game. You win but the damage is done. Games like that leave scars even if you win.
Agree mate. They have been able to rest players because of such a favourable CL draw and today was the day they really had to dig in. Credit to them though, they were there for the taking. No Salah, no Van Dijk for ET and Chelsea inexplicably didn't stick Werner on to run them ragged. Found that a bizarre decision from Tuchel.
Tactically he had worn them down but surely after the 1st half of ET where they were dominant they should have looked to put Werner on so he could have stretched them.
Their team for Tuesday will be based on who has the legs for it. Much like our team for the semi of the cup was. If we win tomorrow, and what a huge incentive for us to, Klopp will need to get the cotton wool out ready for Paris.
