Sometimes up and down was not good for us, but I think the first half was good.
There was a spell in the second half that United dominated and the ball created a lot of problems, but not with clear chances.
I think we should improve a little bit when the way we go out, but we had our moments.
Happy, happy.
The boys worked very hard.
It was tough.
For a moment, for a moment, yes.
But of course, on the other side, there's a manager also that adjusts and players that find their own solutions and create problems.
But I think in the first half it was clear our idea to control the middle of the pitch with Diogo in that position.
Then we had a lot of counter-attacks by him driving the ball because there's a pocket there that he takes advantage.
It was good, it was good.
It was a balanced game, both teams were OK.
Yes, in the second half they adjusted.
What did they do?
Two lines of four and two strikers.
It was more difficult to control Van Bissaka and Luke Shaw on the other side.
We have to adjust.
That way we have to defend more on the wide areas with Adam and Diogo.
That takes away some of the things that we have also.
But this is an answer and questions and answers, questions and answers during the game.
