Wasteful half, we created a couple of decent chances.
Mandzukic's header that he put wide from A. Sandro's cross was a far better chance than he made it look. He could have side footed it in.
Midfield poor, but Pjanic did create two good opportunities for Mandzukic with balls over the top. I think he has been better today, he has rarely lost possession but needs to be more influential.
Hernanes - Typical performance, a lot of wasted possession and not always available. But has got on the ball an tried to keep things moving.
Sturaro - Pretty much useless in this sort of game. His movement has been good but loses the ball whenever he gets it or passes in the wrong place. But has pressed well.
Remember when Mandzukic was a goalscorer and Hernanes had a good shot?
We have played better towards the end of the half, with a bit more tempo.

The last 15-20 minutes we looked much better, that Barzagli injury affected us a bit at the start.
