I thought that lewandoski made his mind early that that was how he was going to go I think that he used to be miles better than that but he just didnt fancy the fight against Vvd Must be daunting when you look at him. I think someone younger like mbappe would have gone harder at him
Thought we were generally awful, with an improved 2nd half. Firmino was absolutely useless and a liability at times. Milner and Trent just tried to get the ball to Salah at every opportunity which just didn't work. Wijnaldum went missing, Fabinho couldn't pass. Robertson didn't like being got at. Mané is on it lately, good on him Matip wasnt too bad, dont think he could do much with the goal Van Dijk is Van Dijk and Alisson probably could have sat down.
I’ve had a great morning even with my hangover. Had the sauerkraut’s on a conference call eating humble pie already this morning after their over confident abuse of us (and especially Klopp) yesterday. Being gracious in victory, I told them that I hope Dortmund win the league
First one was his fault. Great finish from Mane but Neuer should have let his defender deal with it. If he'd stayed on his line, no goal.
Think some of you lads are being well over the top. The plan was always sit back and be compact and try to release the ball quickly and use our pace, a lot of the time especially when you have teams pressing you, passes can go astray but for the most part we did both sides of our game excellently. Even when we started the second half and we all expected Bayern to throw the kitchen sink at us we controlled the game. Excellent performance and our most mature in Europe yet, even including last year's runs in. It's tough to go to away to a team like Bayern and play like we did.

The second half was a classic European away performance. We controlled it completely. Agree that it wasn’t entertaining but it was a professional and confident performance. Loved it.
I thought our second half performance was a perfect away performance in Europe. We totally controlled the game and whilst playing within ourselves still looked far more dangerous than Bayern . I was really impressed with the control we showed and just hope we continue i this mode for rest of season. PS Mane
