The first half was a terrible advert for football with Sporting putting a six man back line and in the second half there was more control in midfield from Barcelona but without any endeavour. The most important factor is the victory, three points and a clean sheet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The most important factor is the victory, three points and a clean sheet. It was awful. But most away games have been like that this season and it's been more about grinding out wins. Camp Nou has been where we have seen the quality football, but away from home it's been a lot different and more scrappy. As for the defence. You can't fault it(especially Umtiti), it has been solid and Ter Stegen can always be relied on to make a world class save when called upon and that's important. It wins games.

Yeah, one of Ter Stegen's saves was simply outstanding to be honest. There seems to be something sticky about the midfield and even Iniesta committed various errors which is strange. For me the best outfield players were Busquets first and foremost (insatiable), Semedo and Sergi Roberto especially in the first half. It wasn't an easy game to play and Jorge Jesus set his team out perfectly to stunt anything creative from Barça. They seemed to be playing three different formations all in one game and all in each half depending the zone of play and which team was on the ball. It was very conservative but had it not been for an own goal he almost made it at least a draw. A very important victory and three points in the type of game that can go all wrong.

Carnivore Chris Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 Sergi Roberto would be better in midfield though I think and Denis on the left. Iniesta needs to rest more. The next 2 games are against Olympiacos and should both be wins with all due respects to them, as should the home tie against Sporting. The tricky one now in this group is Juventus away but if the other 3 games are wins then that one likely won't be decisive on who wins the group in the end as I can see Sporting getting something from Juventus over their 2 games with them. This was the second most difficult fixture of the group, after Juve away. Sporting can't be taken lightly, they are doing well out in Portugal, so as you say it was a potential banana skin and 3 points are what mattered in the end. You still do want to see more in these away games though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because United didn't just get the ugliest 1-0 win against a poor Southampton the other week with the most expensive squad ever assembled.
