Fine margins. I think he has looked a lot more lively tonight and on another day has a 1st half hat-trick.
That's the thing, he hasn't been himself in front of goal in the last 5 or 6 games excluding the Sparta game.
 
The same problems persist, wide open at the back to every single simple 3 pass attack. how many times have we seen teams get in the exact way they did for their goal the last half a dozen games? It's absurd Pep is refusing to address it.

An improvement on last weekend but their naivety together with foden looking good made us look better than we've been in reality. Foden and Nunes have both been great, savinho looks lively but absolutely zero end product tonight and looks weak, Lewis has been really poor, anonymous in defence and keeps giving the ball away. Bernardo started deeper alongside kovacic and both he and the team looked better, seemed to push up more as the half went on and we looked progressively worse for it.

Kovacic is going to have to come off early, can't risk a red.
 
Haaland hasn't been himself lately.
No competition for his place. Of course when fit he is undropable but we are too heavily reliant on him scoring as we have ended up with a squad with a worrying lack of goal threat in it
