Backline is what I wanted but only if it meant Fernandinho in front of the backline with Rodri not gundam wing in front of the backline with Rodri. Swear he’s peps illegitimate son
Bernardo false 9 Jesus left wing. Wouldn’t be the first time peps done this with Bernardo and it’s worked generally well before. Still not what I would’ve done though
I completely get the idea pep is going for. Just ****in Wish gundogan wasn’t starting
If sterling was 100% I think the forwards would’ve been sterlinf Aguero mahrez. But because he’s not fully fit and pep would still rather play with inverted wingers or traditional wingers he’s decided to drop Aguero and have Jesus play left wing so we can still have those inverted wingers. I get it. I just hope gundogan is playing as a 6 and not high up the pitch cause he Just doenst have the bite going forward and it takes away from our attack
Zidane rolling out the lineup I wanted to see. An in form Vinicius over Bale who does nothing. Vini has also been expanding his game a little and has looked a more comfortable coming in centrally, which he’ll need to do some of in the 2 forward set up in addition to playing the wing.
