what in the hell was the logic in not starting stones?

I think Pep figured the midfield would keep the ball, meaning Kolarov's passing would be more important that Stone's defending. He was obviously so very, very wrong.

Silva needs to chill with the holding onto the ball. He got caught several times. He isn't the only one, Nolito sat on the ball a couple times I saw. They need to just make a freaking decision and keep the ball moving. Instead they sit there thinking. Nobody moves. The defense gets in perfect position, and our attack is dead at best, or at worst its a turnover.

I miss KDB already. Sterling is still awesome.
