All of that said about our first half performance and my desired subs...

How did the ref not give the penalty?

As I said, the fix is on.

 

[bert38]

This system has caused chaos, half the players don't have clue who's playing were, it's affecting both Silva's, Fernandino, KDB, Laporte and Sterling

I agree-very disjointed performance that has left us very open to counter attacks. Really puzzling to move your best midfielder to central defender and your best central defender to left back. Players look confused.

Atkinson as usual is trying to help out the other team as usual. He's so shit

I think he's just shit tbh. Can't keep up with the game and plays the odds like most PL refs hence no consistency. They are not held accountable because they are all useless.

 

[Chi-town blues]

Confident well win now and put on a better show in the second half, Mahrez for bernado should be the first change

No . He is important in this set up . Mahrez runs like a pregnant girl. Kdb is out of his breath. He should be the first one subbed .

 

[Decepticon]

I'll dare to say it.....replace Bernardo with Mahrez...(hide behind the sofa).

 

[Metalartin]

Mate in the 15 mins before that goal we looked terrible and arse looked like scoring. Anyway not arsed about arguing about it - we’re winning so I’m delighted :)

That's flappery of the highest order, we still had most of the ball, they had a few scrambled shots hit right at Ederson... they were simply making a game of it not dominating us, get a grip.

 

[paulchapo]

Now we have the lead maybe Delph on at left back and Ferna shielding the defence?

Probably Mahrez sort of game...

 

[IcriedwhenTueartleft]

actually played quite well in spells. Our midfield needs to waken up a bit, KDB not quite on it as yet.....Sane could come on and really give Lichsteiner a torrid time. That 2nd goal hopefully has come at the perfect time and we can go and win this comfortably in the 2nd half.
2nd goal was superb and is us at our best, magnificently weighted return from Gundo to Raz, superb first time ball across the box and easy tap in for Kun.

 

[Dax777]

Everything in midfield is through KDB and they have 3 men on him. That means David Silva & Gundogan are not pulling their weight.

Oh look, a non-analytic analysis. :) @FantasyIreland would be proud.
