Can’t give you that Steff, my memory isn’t good enough
There’s been enough match threads with these concerns, next time I’ll post here in this thread if I see it as an issue. But like I say, it’s not a big thing - just one of the few things I believe he could potentially do better on....
All the ones Sissoko started.

Juve at home
Got his subs horribly wrong and saved one... when we were out unless we scored.
Flip side
Pool away we had a goal from a sub and a penalty won by a sub

On a lighter note, Poch has come top of yet another list. This time an important one:

We already have a thread like that, it's the question that's bigger than the meaning of life: Top 4 or a trophy?

What should he have done? Not digging you out at all, I just want to understand your POV. I saw things in that game we will learn from like us all.

Juve ?
Brought on moura first and then lamella
Last thing we needed was a static lampost (Llorente) against an organised defence
We needed people’s to run at their defence a sthey were all on yellows (hence why moura over lamella as first sub)
Could also have brought rose on and pushed up down the left

Was that because of a tactical change by Juve or was that because we were tiring, in your opinion?

I actually don’t see anything from with the logic of having a tall striker on against a team sitting deep. And Kane almost scored with a header from a cross.

Tiredness I think, it was before Allegri made his subs.

Arthur Rowe
Kane almost did
Ever notice when w ending Llorente on we stop crossing?
He is utter garbage as an impact sub

Tactical IMO
They changed their set up and it gave them the goals by making them play wide

Michael Carrick
I think it was tactical too, and the precise master stroke Allegri has been getting praise for, from Ancelotti etc.
So I can get on board with the idea that Poch can learn something from that, being able to respond to a change in shape as quickly as possible or playing it safe until he can figure out his next move. But I think that’s a different thing from saying we suffer because he waits until 70 mins to make changes usually.

Hence why in my post I said their are two games to consider that we’re both HUGE
Juve and Pool
Juve he could have done more and got it wrong IMO
Pool away he got it spot on and it got us a result

He has repeatedly said that Moura is not ready for full matches like that yet due to his needing work off the ball/when defending. It could’be seen us get picked off if he had come on and we were unprepared. I think their tacotings of Dier and Dele shifted the landscape, though I will say at 1-1 I just wanted someone to slow the game down/make it ugly for a few mins.
As for the results, let us be honest. If we’d lost at Liverpool beaten Juve it would’ve been “fairer” in terms of what we saw on the pitch?

Don’t think it would have been fairer, we played really well at Liverpool and the draw was the least we deserved.
I kind of take the view that in a knock out game with Juve, when the move was so calculated and so intended to cause confusion, and it worked, they deserved it. It’s one of those where although we played well, and created chances, and actually performed really impressively considering the opposition...it is just about winning. If they lucked out from a set piece I’d say we deserved it, the fact that they planned to cause confusion means I have no problem holding my hands up and putting it down to a great learning experience.
Quite right on Moura. What would people be saying if he was used, failed to track his man or press at the right time, and Juve picked us off? Poch is too naive with his subs? Poch needs to learn how to trust the more established players rather than go for broke?
