Not sure why every now and then we don't try a ball over the top. Torres has isolated their CBs several times but the ball never comes.

We are moving the ball so much more faster this match

It always helps when you don’t have someone doing 46 step-overs every time we look to attack.

We’ve got wingers playing on the wings of their strong feet so they aren’t constantly cutting inside and bunching players up in the middle of the pitch. We’re easy to defend against when we do that, teams just defend the centre of the pitch in numbers

Wowww don’t think I’ve seen a worse side in Europe than these for ages

Us against Lyon

Zinchenko adds about 10% possession to our game.

He just mops up any balls out to that left hand side and takes up the positions Silva used to in order to help out recirculating the attacks.

Obviously he's never going to be a top tier defender but he's our best LB in these kind of games.

It works well, because then we have a back 3 of Laporte, Dias and Walker, whom I have full confidence in.

His defending is always suspect, but he links will with our forwards.

Gundogan does that a lot, put one into Foden early on but didn’t make the most of it

Nah these are totally shit

 

[I'm Blue]

Does anyone know why Marseille made a point of not taking the Knee ?.

Dose not reflect well on the Club.

Everybody should be taking the Knee.

No exceptions.

Should be their choice and shouldn't have to give an explanation why.
