Pretty poor performance after starting well.

Been a bit too scrappy, not sure it was the best idea to start the same 3 mids who played 90mins in Madrid when you have options on the bench. I hope Pjanic's sub was just a precaution.

It seems our tactic has been to get it wide and send in crosses. The problem is the crosses had been poor, Matuidi offering little when attacking and Mandzukic too isolated. We need more than one player getting in the box if we cross it and Dybala closer Mandzukic for knock downs.

Costa changed the game by showing that he can put in an excellent cross. A bit worrying how important he is to our attacking play, we look a bit lost without him.

Hopefully we keep the ball better in the second half. I'd like to see Bentancur or Marchisio on so we can hold on to it better.

If Manzukic goes back to his clinical stage as a CF, it's one more reason to sell Higuain. I really wanna see Dybala being tried on that position.

Costa has become absolutely invaluable to this team, he breaks all slowness and predictability. Spectacular
Yeah let's sell a guy who gurentees 30 goals a season for a guy who scores under 10.


Not to mention Dybala move around too much to play the sole CF in the set up.

Selling Higuain would be reliant on Dybala working as a CF.. if it doesnt work, keep him. Just think it should be really tested by Allegri

Jog on. I know it is a favourite pass time around here to hate on poor Golzalo but Mandzukic is nowhere near clinical enough to replace him as CF
