Lool this koeman pack> Refereeing decisions definitely played a part however he was also tactically outclassed. You can single out players but the fact of the matter is our system has no cohesive structure–particularly in the midfield. Once you have more of the ball in positional https://twitter.com/hagridfcb/status/1381571153408352256

transitions you negate the risk of errors and unlock compact defences. We have some the best passers and nimble minds in our starting midfield yet they’re not used effectively, including Pjanic & puig. Messi has been made into a box to box mid under him solely linking the def&

attack while fdj and pedri appear to form some sort of defensively-wary ‘peripheral midfield’ hence why pedri acts as a disjointed second creator after messi, he too solely fixated on exposing openings with through balls to dembele diminishing any form of positional play which

dispossesses and exposes us vs defensive teams on the counter. Clearly this isnt koemans style and its obvious he cant work with players who don’t provide defensive cover as his system makes us prone to counters and press hence the weird obsession for wijnaldum. Limited coach.
