He's good in cover, but when he's involved in the attack, it's usually really bad. In space, he can make a long pass, as he showed yesterday. But when he's up near the box and needs to make a short pass or take a damn shot, he fucks it up almost every time. If he's playing in place of Busquets fine. But when he's in a more attacking role, it doesn't work.
The tactics yesterday were fucking horrible. Everyone knew going into the game they were going to press us. And we don't start Arthur?! Last week against Pool things got much better for us once Semedo came on, yet this week we start Roberto at RB... again. Somehow Coutinho starts despite offering nothing in the first leg. And Jordi Alba. Wow. What a fucking game. We need an alternative LB immediately. Busquets' lack of mobility bites us in the ass for the second year in a fucking row (Can't wait for DeJong to bench him). Liverpool came in with the exact same gameplan Roma used last year and the team/coach reacts in exact the same way.
Semedo should have started. Arthur should have started. Coutinho should have been on the bench. Alba should've been yanked at halftime.
