Sheffield were well organised but offered absolutely nothing. Think they are the worst team in the division and can’t see them getting many points.

Back to back wins. Foden played brilliant. Nice to see Bobb getting a decent amount of time.

Didn't notice his Camera?

My bad, cameo

That pass though .

That was bloody dull, you can’t blame Sheffield for setting up that way but it strangled the life out of the atmosphere they had zero ambition, onwards and upwards we go, thought we played as well as could be expected against a parked bus

82% possession and we had over 900 passes.....yet we only had 4 shots on target to the 2 by Sheffield .... must do better and opportunity lost to increased GD.

Shots on target means fuck all unless they go in.

Presume it means the efforts straight into Edi's hands for them but not the shots over the bar or wide from us.

Complete and total domination! Something like 85% possession and almost 1,000 passes or something ridiculous like that!!

Too bad we couldn’t have grabbed a few more goals, but it was Attack against Defence for 90 minutes and became the Rodri & Foden Show!

Bobb showed more in his cameo than Grealish in 50 minutes!! His pass for the second goal was exquisite! Foden always dangerous around the box and Alvarez, once again, earned his goal and unlucky not to nick one off the keeper AGAIN!!

Surprised he didn’t give Bernardo or Rodri 5-10 mins rest and bring on Philips and KDB, but…

A very good day at the office!!!

At 3 - 0 he would have, not 2 - 0. Remember Palace!

This is Pep you are on about, the consumate professional, best Manager in the game of all time and remains humble enough to know there is always something to learn and improve on.

I must admit I was disappointed in Gvardiol today. Had so much of the ball and often in space but Jo positivity hoping forward or trying to beat a player. There was s period in ghe first half when Jack couldn't pass 5 yards.
Think we would have crested far more with better flank play.
But thought Ake was man of the match and the result was all jmportant. Happy new year!!

Jack was well off it, understandable.
I'm just glad he made it on time, what with having all his watches nicked!

Plenty of positives in a routine win and credit to our lads mentality and Pep to make things a little smoother in the second half.
