    Very good, P. #insight

    Zinchenko appeared to be a significant downgrade when he came on. Or did it just appear that way as things were tense?
    They also defended our set pieces really well but I couldn't work out how. What were they doing that others haven't tried?

    Don't think our delivery was as good as usual. I did like their offside trap from that 1st free-kick, when our players moved up to get back onside, they moved further up. Does only really work once, as then you put late runners in.

    That was an interesting one, that free kick. Someone (might have been Trossard) was stood far to the left and I assumed he was going to make a late run around the back. He didn't. But as you say, if they tried that again, you use a deep runner.
