I was just talking about the Bayern result in isolation. It was a freak result in a game we had nothing to lose by chasing. I agree that the Brighton result was dreadful along with plenty of others though.
The Bayern game was also the last dying gasp of what the Pochettino years had brought. For 35 minutes we made Bayern look second rate. Could have been 2 or 3 nil up. Ndombele was pinging it around; Winks was pressing high and causing turnovers; Son was causing all sorts of problems - it was the most breathtaking we'd looked for well over a year.
Then they scored. Then Lewandowski his a brilliant strike. Even then we were in the game at 2-4. Then it all fell apart.
