Lars Sivertsen

The red card for Garcia comes from a ball in behind.

And it does remind me of when Wilson wrote a piece a few years ago about how Guardiola's city had this sort of exhaust port.

They're like the Death Star in Star Wars.

There is this hidden weakness in there.

Now, the big difference is, of course, the exhaust port of the Death Star was a big secret, whereas with the flick line, everyone knows about it.

And I think, as Sid spoke about, like, last week we had this discussion...

Every single person we know about it, every analyst on the planet will tell their team, listen, they defend with a very high line.

We should try to get in behind.

But they haven't won 26 out of 31 games in the league.

So clearly it's not just about, ah, the high line.

We turn up and we're behind the high line.

It's really, really difficult to do.

But you still can't get away from the fact they're over the course of two legs.

They got two players sent off from that way.

The ball from Griezmann for the first goal was just beautiful.

That was such a well-weighted ball.

I wonder if, because as Sid very rightly said, it's not just about the line, it's about your ability to put pressure on the man in possession all the time.

I wonder if you're slightly vulnerable in these Champions League quarter and semi-finals because you get to the stage where you're playing the best teams you're going to come up against all year.

And you have a lot of games in your legs.

Your midfield has been chasing and chasing and chasing and chasing all season.
