17 corners we have now had. Four maximum have looked threatening

You could also turn it around and say that we should score more with all that possession.

We play a very high line with pretty vkuch all players bar Ederson participating in every attack. That does make us vulnerable to counters.

thats Pep's mantra: the best form of defense is possession

Except our defending has clearly been better this season, other than just possession and quickly winning the ball back.

Stones, Walker, Delph, Otamendi, Ederson have all been excellent for much of the season in key moments.

We've had a dip, and that includes arguably Fernandinho at times.

I do think we waste a lot of chances as well. It probably seems weird with how well we’ve done this season across the board but I believe it to be true.

Serge gets the match ball but Leroy gets the plaudits for that goal. Brilliant stuff.

Given our set up and the cards they're dealt, one could argue that our defensive line is doing it better than our front 5 (or 6).
