If this was the plan, yes.

If this was the plan, to limit his involvement, then yeah. Burning money otherwise.

I had to.

I'm playing both sides

But we kept getting the ball to those players in space, but their first touch would let us down. Better first touch and we're in business.

I don't think it's too much to ask Salah to knock a pass to Dom here, for example.

It seems to suit the squad.

They used the same tactic against Bournemouth and yet Slot was surprised 🫠

Quite a few turnovers, but i don't think it was Konate's fault. He played a few passes perfectly to players and they just messed up.

Considering City wanted him to have the ball. He beat their press multiple times.

I'm fine with 352, I've made peace with it
November 10, 2025 at 9:11 PM
I thought Konate did well, considering

Finds Gravenberch with a pass but I'm not sure what the Dutchman is attempting before we lose possession, but Konate bypassed their initial press well.

Clips one over the top for Salah here but we're eventually crowded out.

Clipped the ball into Salah here. He tried to knock it down to Szoboszlai but it somehow ends up at head height.

This is what I was getting at.
