They had Plan A, B, C and D but none of them made a dent in Chelsea’s resilience. Just because you go behind in a game and can’t claw it back doesn’t mean there was no Plan B. It just means none of them worked.
What annoys me slightly is a lot of the media seem to think Pep lost the game. How about some credit to Chelsea for beating them .....again?
Chelsea were incredible. But Pep definitely gave them a leg up from the first minute by tinkering. Doesn’t mean the result would have been any different but it’s a real head scratcher. He hasn’t picked the best Citeh XI in the last three games against Chelsea now. Mason Mount and Reece James were unbelievable (although Kante was MOTM). Wouldn’t like to be choosing England’s RB for the Euros. Shootout between the Premier League Winner, the Champions League Winner, Or the La Liga winner? Crazy
