First game with no bookings this season for us? 13:08 - Jan 20 with 425 views

It was a strange performance. Not especially bad, we just didn't seem to be as physical as we are sometimes.

I think the 2 Ben's on the right played ok. Just that doku and de bruyne were very precise with their passes. Perhaps we let doku run too much without tackling.

None against Man Utd either.

I said after the game yesterday that by the 60th min or whatever we had only made 2 fouls and the proved we couldn’t even get near them, needed a bit more physicality really.

'proved we couldn't even get near them' pretty much sums up why I think. I don't think it was for want of trying but their movement and passing was that good that we couldn't get close enough to even attempt tackles.

Quite humbling for us but probably more of a reflection on a combination of having the best manager in world football, with billions of pounds spent and choosing to ignore the rules!
