I don't find that long ball stat at all surprising. We make a lot of passes, some of them are going to be long, and didn't someone show last season that statistically Barcelona play more long balls than Stoke? Doesn't really mean much.

Strongest team we've had for a while Yeah, I guess it's good revision for them, get all the players and the good stats in their head before they do the match.
Guly kind of snuck in there, did not see he was back in training. Last 20 minutes of headless chicken for him, (I mean this in a nice way)
