We’ve conceded the third fewest goals in the league (4 more than Arsenal who have conceded the fewest), the fifth fewest in the CL (none of them consequential), and joint second fewest in the FA Cup (again, none of them consequential).I don’t understand the tactics. We’ve got two CB’s in Walker and Gvaridol playing more or less as wingers, the former not having an attacking bone in his body. Our striker needs service on top of that. Despite this highly conservative approach from Pep, we’re still conceding goals for fun—shoutout to Akanji and Foden, who I thought were brilliant. Doku as well.
We just earned a clean sheet with Newcastle having one decent chance. This time next week we could go top of the Goals Allowed league table.
Could we better? Absolutely.
Are we conceding goals for fun? Absolutely not.
