      Not really, no.

      Jorginho managed not to lose us the game, as he had against Tottenham; then Thomas replaced him, and contributed directly to our win.

      He wasn’t good enough in that game, as he wasn’t again yesterday; his weakness was just more obvious because of the way Chelsea set up against us.

      Jorgi plays a few games well and then falls off once and you start seeing how bad he is lol like clockwork

      City are the exception because of the physicality of their midfield.

      Jorginho at the 6 is what Xhaka was at his worst for us. He’s an easy target.

        We weren’t outmuscled in midfield yesterday though. I’d say our bad play in the 1st half was mostly on Captain O trying to force the issue. Hes supposed to be our glue, know when to recycle the ball and pausa. He was uncharacteristically erratic

          Physicality doesn’t mean strength. It’s the pressure, it’s the speed, it’s the intensity of the press, it’s urgency in duels.
