Frustrate them for an hour, getting men behind the ball, filling all the spaces and after an hour as they began to tire make a couple of attacking substitutions and go for them more. Similar tactics and some luck is the only way we get anything on Sunday. I am not sure Nuno has got the tactical flexibility to do that in a game but we will see.
Poor finishing from city saw us stay in that game, let's be real. Haaland missed a fair few chances, de bruyne couldn't hit the target, it was not a tactical masterclass.
So every game is just decided by how many chances you create?
If we're playing that game, how about our much heralded game vs Newcastle. They could've been 2-3 up early before we got in front and missed some great chances. Were we lucky then?
We were playing the best team in the world and we limited them to long range efforts and a few big chances then took our chance when it came. I think we did the best we could've done in that game, certainly better than I believed was possible.
Or was anyone expecting us to dominate that game? Feel like Cooper nailed that one personally.
