Hazard got behind his man and Nacho didn’t put the over the top ball in. Hazard has had a good outing so far.
I'd rather have Jovic starting any day ahead of Isco as false 9 option where he will actually be playing in central midfield a lot.
In hindsight, that Fede sub was a ********ing masterclass by Carlo. Game won and 6 points clear at the top.
When Hazard and Jovic came in it was a completely different game. If he ever goes with Isco in the middle again and Rodrygo on the left I don't know what to say.
Good performance today. We were coming on from the 30th minute and went into high gear in the second half. Valverde, Hazard and Isco had pretty good showings. As long as they can take the weight off of the core and provide options then we can see out this campaign. Vini should be well rested as well. Great win.
I'm not really as high on Rodrygo as others, and this isn't just based on this game only. The more of him I watch the more I think he's kinda wasted as a winger, but doesn't have the physical attributes of a striker either.
Crucial 3 points.Fede MOTM he changed the game,stop playing the old midfielders in these games,he is the only one who can bring the ball forward and run like crazy . Props to Asensio ,he is the third best goalscorer this season and the only one other than Vinicius/Benzema who is looking for goal. Militao and Carvajal were also very good.Camavinga condidence must be low,he is getting subbed at HT for like 4/5 time this season.
Loved that intensity in the second half, makes for a much more enjoyable game to watch. I knows it’s only Granada but that victory felt so nice!
3 points! So critical for us to win today. Great Fede! Deserves a lot more minutes. Could be very useful in Paris as a starter. i thought Isco was good today...there was an extra bounce in his step. We need to use him and Fede more. Asensio’s shooting technique is simply incredible. Benz resting....Vini resting ....Casemiro resting. Rest Luka and Kroos next week and we’re ready to go. p.s - what a difference it makes having a real right back. Welcome back Carvajal
Great second half today, i wish we'd play with this type of intensity and urgency for at least 60 minutes every game, we'd put a lot of games away early if we did that. Hopefully this is a turning point for Fede this seaosn, massive impact, Jovic and Hazard weren't half bad either, Carlo's second half coaching was great as well.
I haven't watched as much of Cama as some of you here but Cama's skill set reminds me more of a box-to-box player that can ball higher up the pitch. I just don't see him as a DM.
He played well as a CM. Carva was getting into good overlaps in the first half but no one to target in CF position. Isco with Asensio and Rodrygo won't work.
Terrible display, I'm not happy at all. ridiculous line-up, finally he makes good subs. Asensio is a one-trick-poney, useless and horrible, rodrygo needs a loan. I won't talk on isco and marcelo which is absolutely stupid they even in our squad. all in all bad performance, I'm tired on saying "3 point and move on"
