Oof, Griezmann went in again there, he's on a knife-edge. Messi playing with fierce urgency, we're still not sure he's fully fit are we?

Was it?! I'm loving what I'm seeing of Inter here.
They look very well organised. Conte is very good at that isn't he. Good them getting the first goal and interested to see how Barca break them down.

Just been looking at the Inter team and it's pretty interesting. Godin and De Vrij at the back, Sensi and Brozovic midfield and Martinez is a great little goal scorer up top (signed for 12m by the way!)

Liverpool are a completely different team at Anfield. Really annoying to watch.

Is there a team in world football that are harder to beat at home?

Interested to see Brozovic, so far the midfield looks intelligent, mobile and fluid. I'm not sure Barca will break them down if Suarez continues to play with lead in his boots (this may be due to a decade at the sharp end with a brutally high energy style) and Griezmann continues to play like he's just transferred from a promising badminton career.

Inter need to be more aggressive. Barca's weakest point is actually their build up from the back. Need to attack that

Seems like Ajax just picking up right where they left off despite having lost several of their best players. Why can't we do that??
Because they have a proper structure and their DNA runs through the entire club.

Arthur looks tidy for Barca. Where's Dembele?

United did the same this summer. For several years really, just not in the way you'd like.

Probably not at the moment. Perhaps City. But the Anfield factor is immense.

Really don't think Gomez is having a good game. Looks a bit uncertain when Salzburg attack.

Ajax players always seem to play close to eachother with short distances between them. Can't help but think that Utd when going forward needs to have the front players closer to eachother.
