I reckon three of Raphnha's four failed passes in the final third were committed in the first-half

It has to be said, he was poor in the first half. Not just misplaced passes and bad set pieces, but he gave the ball away in the build up to the peno that wasn't, and threw a leg as they went past. And that fluffed chance.

He really turned it on in the 2nd half though. I guess even Messi had the odd poor 45 mins.

Says everything about his ability when he had a poor first 45 minutes and still won the MOTM poll on this forum based solely on that electric second 45.

Thought he was off it today and yet he was still the biggest threat on the pitch

Had one of the best chances to score to with his header (got to score those Raph).

Was visibly frustrated with himself and his team mates as the game wore on.

Next time Raph :love:

Found something he is bad at, heading!

Thought he was off today, some bad descisions and poor touches but still a threat.

I wish both of them would stick one away, opening of the floodgates.

I dont know whats happened to Klich, his shooting has totally gone to pot but i genuinely am worried about his hip.

I do wonder if we had a fully sit squad would he even be playing?

Doubt it! We worry about Phillips but Klich is really the one player we can't replace. We have two recognised CMs, Klich and Shack. After that we are turning to Dallas.

Maybe he's just regretting the missed header....or he's just tired.
