Champions League Final | Post-Match Thread

[foxbox123]

We put out a seriously odd XI and Chelsea just did Chelsea.

I don’t think it was the lack of strikers tonight, we created nothing.

the lack of options up front killed us tonight simple ? aguero was finished long before tonight. sterling is not good enough at this level. jesus is even worst

this will be the lesson city and pep will learn from tonight get 2 top strikers and this city team win the champions league

HOW MANY TIMES!?!! We watch him throw it away in Europe each year and yet some still think that’s good enough

Well he’s good enough to win the premier league and quite honestly that’s good enough for me and most of us

Pep out definitely

give you head a wobble fella

What we must not do is cry. It's OK if we cry when we win but we didn't quite manage it this time . This is just a step on a long journey. We will.be back ,no doubt. Then we can cry.

Fcuk crying, im just so angry we didnt turn up

Tuchel in 4 months has done what Pep couldn't in years.

Get a grip.

Next season we are winning this.

They did an excellent job denying Mahrez and Sterling space outside and Kante cleaned up everything centrally. The guy is an absolutely outstanding footballer. And they got all they needed — one breakaway in space.

I’m not so much upset that we played the formation we did — more so that we didn’t look fast nor fluid with a system that should have encouraged that. It’s almost as if we reverted to our style from earlier in the season — slow, tentative, less energetic.

I’m not as upset as I expected. We WILL be back in this final and it will be all the sweeter for having lost this one. Still an excellent season with two trophies and one match away from maximum games.

What makes you think that? Guardiola doesn’t learn from his mistakes he just goes for the possession game and hopes for the best. This was our chance and we blew it!

Why?

If you read it again you’ll understand. If you really think nobody really cares about losing tonight you cant be a real fan.

 

[Bandofblues]

Lost before a ball was kicked

Maybe you should be in charge. Prick!

 

[Manchester_lalala]

I want to add that Chelsea deserve this. They have outplayed every team they’ve played in the knockout stages and tonight was no different. Kante is an incredible player.

Don't know how long it will take to get over this.. Never been at this stage before

Shouldn't lose sight of that... But the way we lost... Inexcusable

You mean not playing our best team?
