Champions League Final | Post-Match Thread

[Keeper!]

Pep is a flawed genius, this will always be the case

 

[EL APACHE TEVEZ]

Mods Can we wipe the board of champions league threads please

 

[Gaz in Zurich]

Pep should have played the PSG team and formation. We handled Neymar and Mbappe with that team. Werner and Havertz would have been easy.

 

[UUJblue]

Willy caballero getting a medal. At least a positive

 

[Jimmieblue]

I hope Pep doesn’t start saying he takes the blame!

 

[Gazza]

Its a forum. Do you realise how stupid your comment is?

I thought you were collecting them to use.

 

[vicblueman]

The best team won .

 

[baggy]

Sorry pep, I love you but you fucked it again. Went into the game talking about how relaxed we were not changing it up then that line up. Couldn't resist. Wtf. Poor Sergio at the end.

 

[wolviedinho]

one shot all night, disgraceful, simply fucking unecceptable

Awful just fucking awful.

Fair play to the chavs they have our number. Pep and the players need to learn from this shitshow. Kev was completely nullified, Foden should have been lm. We had no midfield to put any kind of stamp on the game. Pep has a lot of credit in the bank but he did fuck up tonight. The players decision making was awful. They could not string 2 passes together.

Chelsea pressed high on the wingers and counter with no midfield to stop them.

Collectively naive. The true swashbuckling city did not show up.

Anyway, onto next season.

Chelsea players knew they had the beating of us from the 1st minute.
Those 2 wins against us gave them confidence

bollocks

 

[No1 was Colin bell]

Not to be. Gutted. Absolutely gutted. Just felt like a step too far in the end. So many had off nights. After the heights of BMG and PSG to lose to these niggerly boring sods really sucks. I’m not sure any formation would have seen us get that game won. Many will talk about Sterling but actually he wasn’t awful. And playing very wide on both sides didn’t stretch Chelsea. Kevin and gundog non existent. Phil took an age to make a mark. Ah well the double it is and a tremendous season still.

 

[Txiki Txiki Bang Bang]

Aguero is the best player in the world, he can't be replaced.......oh look Aguero is on the bench.



Again!

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

No natural forward on the pitch from the start (Jesus or Aguero), knew it would come round and bite us on the arse. You only hinder your self like that if you have no other options. Mahrez is a waste of space in my book, always has been always will be.

He's had a pretty good season, but tonight every time he was about to do summat he was taken down. But he didn't do much when he wasn't. In fact, it was one of those games where we couldn't pick a MotM.

 

[VOOMER]

Garbage. If we'd won we would all be saying it was a masterstroke. Only one change from the semi 2nd leg and we were superb in that game. Have to give a lot of credit to the opposition.

Nearly everyone called it before the match started and they called it right

 

[jimmymozz]

Sterling needs to fuck off now, Pep tinkering with the team was a mistake, he’s tried tinkering before , news flash IT DOESNT WORK, just play our normal team, overthinking it again

 

[ws01]

Pep is the best manager in the world over 38 games.

In a one off, must win game, he's completely lost it. He's inept. No other word for it. Inept.

He simply ruined our chances today. The players didn't know WTF was going on. Totally fucked us up. Totally.

Over a 38 game season he's got basically not matches that deal with this kind of pressure

That's ultimately the difference I think. The pressure gets to him, and as such rational thought just goes straight out the window every time

 

[brian the blue]

Won £250 on Chelsea. The easiest money I’ll ever make. We were always going to bottle that.

Yet another hollow CL win for Chelsea though. If you don’t win your own league and win the CL then in my opinion, it means nothing.

Sterling sale this summer would be good value.

If we win the league every season and go out in the CL at the group stages, I’ll be a happy man.

Hopefully this is the kick up the arse the board needs to not stall in the window after winning a title. 3 big signings and retain our title.

 

[Superace]

We didn't turn up simple as that.

I'm honestly baffled that rodri or ferna didn't start, totally, utterly baffled.

 

[hilts]

Best team on the night won.
We'll get there one day.

Probably Pep won’t be our manager forever

 

[eyalluvitt]

We needed big performances from Sterling and Mahrez not the chuckle brothers playing hide and seek. Play acting at every coming together from Chelsea was embarrassing towards the end.
