V Madrid

[Hesperus]

Didn't sleep well after that game. Too wound up.

However, If we keep playing like that we should do ok for the rest of the season but our side is showing some deficiencies that were exposed last night.

Lack of pace up front and at the back (without Walker).

We've missed Mahrez and Gundogan this year. Replacements weren't good enough.

Some key players form has dropped too. Haarland, Alvarez and Diaz.

It's probably up front we've struggled this season the most. Despite all the possession last night we really struggled to create clear cut chances.

I feel it was reflective of it Year. We are prime to lapses of concentration at the back (their goal) and we are lacking cutting edge up front at times. Partly due to players settling in.

Too early to judge the new players they need the first year under their belt.

However, we lack goal scoring midfielders especially ones like Gundo arriving late in the box. I felt last evening only KdB was ever going to score a goal.

We had the chances. KDB's second chance was better than his first and Phil would normally bury his chance too.
