Carmona has looked good. Read that entry pass perfect. Gudelj has been fine

Lope telling the players to calm down at back and also press higher.

Why did bono get booked?

Isco and Oliver, just football understanding and quality. What you come for stadium for. Almost setting up Rafa mir, if not for offside.

In isolation that’s a soft yellow… but he’s had a lot of plays like that

He actually looks like Banega on the ball today

I agree. He’s been amazing. I’m impressed with Jose angel carmona and kike sales as well. Promising young players we got there.

Looks like his race is run. I hope it’s not a long term injury but dimitrovic chance to step up.

Better than expected. But as soon as Lope’s coward mentality starts showing, Villareal will walk over.

On the whole, a very good half from us. One of the best I’ve seen for a while. Hoping we can keep it up! Oliver was outstanding as was Isco. The creative sparks we’ve badly been lacking.

Vamos!

First bad play by Torres. Should’ve done better with that. Gudelj closes the half with another solid play.

Certainly happy with going to half with the lead… I’m concerned about midfield, but mostly we’re exactly where we’d wish to be. Will come down to whether or not we show up in second half and which team makes better adjustments.

Gonna have to protect Gudelj and AcuƱa though. That sucks.

True! 15 min more than usual!

But he still can’t make the CL list. We have high standards!

I’m very happy with the team and manager here. We have got it right so far and looking great on ball, dangerous on counter, created chances, took a well worked goal and looked strong in defence.

I personally think this is a big 45 mins for lope. Should we win here I think he would deserve a bit longer and be harsh to sack him on the back of this. However, we only 45 mins in and could all turn ugly yet. Promising signs though!
