Fuck me, some players have picked the wrong game to have their poorest game for a while.

Too many silly mistakes giving the ball away in the wrong areas.

Alvarez has been awful, and has given it away in some ridiculous areas, leading to Rodri getting booked.

There's definitely a 2nd goal out there, but we really need to shore things up.

Alvarez just screwed Rodri for the 2nd half

They are definitely planning to bring Salah on late, we need to be two goals to the good when that happens.

And gapko

Strange half, first fifteen minutes excellent, then we've totally switched off and let them dictate the possession and passing. I wouldn't wait long to bring Alvarez off, so poor. More composure needed thus 2nd half or they'll equalise for sure

 

[Dax777]

Nunes for Alvarez

I'd rather Kovacic and let Bernardo go play on the left

 

[BringBackSwales]

Why does it feel like we're losing?

You’re in this thread?

As I feared, Alvarez had been shocking. Constantly gave the ball away. His hospital pass to Rodri led to a Rodri yellow card..

 

[TFC]

Not only do I not expect Alvarez subbed, I expect Pep to double down and bring his brother on for Erling.... ;)

 

[burning blue soul]

Is Alvarez in some unknown area of the pitch to what he's used to?
He looks the worst player on the pitch by far. What's to do with him?

Obviously delighted to be winning, but we're not really playing well here. Keep giving the ball away and inviting pressure on ourselves. I'd get Kovacic on for Alvarez to help us keep possession better. We've got a great opportunity now, just need to keep our composure and play our normal game.
