Still not sure about Kerkez, makes the simple look hard.

I was screaming for Rio to come on as that would have prevented them from throwing everyone forward if we had kept him up when they came forward. We played poorly tonight but came away with a win which is what champions do.

If Gordon had stayed on it would have been a different outcome.

Maybe but maybe not. Gordon stays on, we were still 1-0 up. That 2nd goal not sure has anything to do with 10 men.

10 men and 2 down, almost a no lose situation and they just threw everything at it and had nothing to lose. Do always say 2-0 is dangerous scoreline, same when playing 10 men.

If we killed it for another 10/15 mins or get a 3rs was game over. But 2-0 to 2-1 suddenly it only needs a set piece as shown.

If Gordon hadn't gone when he did he'd have gone a few minutes later - he was too fired up to stay in control.

I think its a bit harsh on kerkez. Yes he was weakness piss for guimaraes goal.

But he's there fighting his ground and being asked to stamd in a 3 when he's a natural running and attacking fullback back. We are inhibiting him to allow the right to go forward.

He didn't shrink one thing today butane a howler as he wasn't sure and did the worst thing in the end
 
We will have to defend better against Arsenal. Still practice makes perfect. More corners routines and long ball stuff.
 
Konate is abit suss of late. He's likely to get injured again soon and probably would be an enforced introduction for leoni...which wouldn't be a bad thing.

Haven't quite played as a team first two games but still got results...in for an interesting season.
 
We managed to come through this match playing like defence was something you see at the end of a garden...whilst avoiding injuries and having a 16yr old scoring on their debut.

As for Newcastle...they appear to have some bad luck with injuries...
