They're no more deadly at home than we are away.
I'm sure we'll score there which puts us right on the front foot. Yes we got the luck for once with their disallowed one but other than the one on one with Haaland we were never in any danger other than that. We should have scored another couple 2nd half. At 1-1 I'd say it would have been 50/50 now I'm confident we're going through.

Maybe our poor performance was due to something that Pep alluded to after the game; That Rodri & Cancelo were not taking up the correct positions.

It would then have a direct effect on those directly in front of them, namely Gundogan & Bernardo, which in turn would also affect players around them too.

It would explain a lack of fluidiy about our play, particularly how they were able to get through us more easily than most other teams & why our attacking flow was lacking too.

Just a thought

Anybody read anything into that love in between Foden and Haaland after the final whistle?

not to beat a dead horse (donkey?), but compare sterling's typical reaction to missing wide open chances to foden's last night. foden was gutted and barely celebrated his goal b/c he was so mad at himself for earlier misses. sterling is all smiles and pretends he's won the world cup when he scores 1 in 25. says a lot about which player wants to improve and which one doesn't GAF.
