Very easy today.
But can't shake the feeling that'd we'd play much better with someone additional in midfield who moves a lot. Albeit Cuadrado who runs with the ball, Pjaca that attacks between the lines or even Lemina. We'd improve with another body or extra foil out there.

He needs a goal.

I get the impression Alves becomes substantionally better, when we have higher ball rotation and cause more gaps in the opponents concrete

your take ?
Of course he is, especially more so when he isn't quick anymore so controlled possession game with alot of interplay is second nature to him and what suits him best. To start in high position where you have a siege on opponents box, that's basically what he did in Barca for a decade.

Pathetic half from Dynamo, our goal in the second half should be making Dybala score, Pjaca, Cuadrado and Mandzu could use some competitive minutes too.

Maybe wingback is not his best position anymore then?

Good half but as usual , the weak links in the team are painful to watch bar Hernanes. That left hand side is plain awful with Evra.
The weird thing is we have beseiged their box, so Evra is staying as left attacker basically and he is worthless at attacking.

Evra has been pretty aweful it has to be said. I don't remember him being this bad last season. He has only played twice so far and both times he has looked very average.
He has looked woeful since the Euro's where he was getting owned there as well.

I really don't know how long he's going to ride his luck starting cl games. It's certainly frustrating to watch him start while the much superior Sandro sits on the bench.

Right now , arguably the weakest link in the team with Hernanes, who to his credit is doing pretty alright as of now.

It is, because he excells playmaking wide, he gives you option when the middle is clogged up, he won Barca so many games when their tiki taka was predictable. Especially vs Atletico, they won several games due to being only threat wide and excellent crossing.

Decent first half.

Evra playing as expected. Hernanes doing OK (just taking into account this is the easiest game for a DM in there).

Now the priority must be having Dybala a goal. He clearly is affected, and yes, he is moving too much on the midfield. Play him higher, make him score. Actually the fact he seems shaken is worrying, since there's no real reason for that. He needs to have a strong mentality.

Btw, I'm impressed with how bad Dynamo is. They will lose all 6 games. In the end, we have 4 games vs Lyon and Sevilla to decide this, and we've drawn the first at home. This won't be easy.
