I’m sorry, but Moutinho WAS abysmal tonight. It’s not his fault, though. He shouldn’t have played (I said as much) and we’ve been forced to play him in far too many games over the last couple of years because of the small squad policy. But tonight, we had another option and played him anyway - then left him on for far too long - so those decisions are on Nuno and I lay no blame with Joao. I was talking about his performance in this game in isolation.
I totally agree that calling him an “arrogant idiot” is completely bang out of order and I’ll ask that you don’t refer to my comment in the same breath, thanks very much.
