Aside from now going through in second place, we essentially have a free game against Bayern during which Jose can tinker with his lineup and throw in some players in other positions.
 
Shaky start but we got there. Need to liven up at the back some very sloppy mistakes lead to goals.

onwards and upwards
 
What will we do for the dead rubber in Munich? Can we send a whole makeshift 11 and Jose's assistant?
 
Always said Aurier can attack and he can defend. It’s just about putting it all together and cutting out the brain farts. Mourinho could be the person to coach the silly errors out of him, then we really do have a player on our hands....
 
I wouldn't be reading too much into the Dier substitution (Dier's gone). Simply put, at 2-0 there was no need for a defensive midfielder. Bringing on a more creative CM in order to hunt for goals made sense, but as others have alluded, we wouldn't have seen Poch make such a change so soon.
 
Will take that. Not sure what Jose saw with the Sissoko sub but it made a difference. Very good second half after an abysmal first half.

Thought Aurier was MOTM again today. Lots of good performances second half (Alli, Kane, Eriksen amongst them).

I don't want to be disrespectful to Poch because I never believed his in game management was as had as some on here thought but Jose has balls of steel doesn't he?
 
I don’t think we defended too badly Either - individual mistakes by players that won’t be starters when players are back.

Sanchez/Serge/CE MOM

No because Poch would have started with either Eriksen or Lo Celso rather than Moura so wouldn't have needed the sub so quickly.
