Ok, so after a horrendous hour or so I absolutely loved what we did, especially after we took the lead. The way we kept possession, even though Lokomotiv allowed it to some extent for whatever strange reason, is what we usually see from a top-tier CL side that has what it takes to go all the way. That's exactly how I like to see us kill off games. I am not going to make comparisons because i'm sick and tired of comparing this side to last year's, but that's something we lacked last season what occasionally put us in a lot of danger or even cost us a game or two. We haven't been firing on all cylinders yet in the CL, but we are farther than where I thought we'd be earlier this season, which to me is all that matters in the end. There are some things Sarri has to figure out if we really want to go all the way, such as getting consistency from our CB's, and improving our midfield by slowly integrating Rabiot and Ramsey (because as of now I think we'd come short against another topside with this midfield), but I have faith in that he is able to do so.
All in all, not the best performance, with a pretty shocking display from Ronaldo (no concern though), and a pretty bad Khedira, Matuidi, and Bonucci, but 3 points is all that matters now.
