Leverkusen seem to be throwing men forward early on. Need to stay sharp at the back, but also take advantage of the gaps that will appear. Could well have some good counter attacking opportunities here.
It shows either that Pochettino has 17 or 18 players he thinks can do a job this year, instead of 13 last year--or that he's determined not to repeat what seems the mistake of last year, which was to run his starting 11 into the ground. I like it, either way.
Los Ladrones go 1-0 up against Legia Warsaw. I was hoping Legia kept it 0-0 for at least half an hour, then one of their players nutmegged the greasy rat to see if he'd rage quit the match like he did when Coentrao did just that in training...
