plenty of promise, disjointed in the final third but that's the area Pep leaves more onus on the players so hopefully he'll give them a few pointers in the week.
Sterling superb, just willing to run and has that confidence to do so back. Stones positive, Kolarov good, Clichy did well for the most part. Silva was back to being largely magnificent, beautiful player. Downsides were Kun and KDB who didn't have enough impact on the game, and Nolito had a quiet debut but he will grow.
Think Pep named a team that told everyone he wants 3/4 more players, but they still tried hard, didn't come off some of the time but it's the first game and it's a transition and a project. This was always going to be one of the hardest games for us because Pep hasn't had enough time yet. To still win when it would have been so easy to fold and lose, is testament to the new spirit (however artificial in parts) Pep has stressed upon the team. For that he deserves the most credit.

Thought Sterling was excellent again. Disappointed Hart was dropped. Interested to see the full backs playing in defensive midfield. Delph still crap.

Can see his point on that corner. Interesting to see this analysis on the full backs and how they played.
