Puel still not getting through Boufal's thick head. In this league if you beat a man, you swing in a cross, you don't try to beat him again. Ffs. This ain't the French League with all the time amd space.

 

I fear he'll never get it. Every time he comes on he tries the same flicks, the same dallying on the ball. If he can't adapt then we should get rid.

Thing is, a better manager could get more out of him. Koeman was in Mané's ear every single game- you'd hear "Shhhadio! Shaaaadio!" coming from the touchline

Got to say manager got it wrong today.

 

The tactics (to frustrate City) worked in the first half. Who's to say they wouldn't have worked in the second half too? We'd all have taken 0-0 if the second half had panned out like the first.

 

Edit: FWIW, I'm a bit disappointed we didn't go for it more rather than playing a containing game, but hey ho
