OMG
I have heard enough
Newcastle lost due to their flawed setup.
They pressed exclusively M2M
In the 2nd half, Barcelona increased the pressing distances
Newcastle intensity dropped and Barcelona manipulated the press easily
The issue was the system setup
Howe would have changed the setup to zonal marking immediately he saw the intensity drop in the 2nd half.
Why didn’t Barca exploit those spaces in the first half?
As for Chelsea
Their team is mid
You can’t compare Chelsea to Liverpool.
Never
Also, read Rosenior’s press conference, he admitted his mistake in the pressing patterns Chelsea used.
Also, Chelsea defenders made a lot of individual errors
