Champions League Final | Post-Match Thread

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

Just a gentle reminder...

We are still PREMIER LEAGUE CHAMPIONS and CARIBAU CUP WINNERS.

 

[Keeper!]

Our manager is one of the highest paid on world football he got it tactically wrong tonight. De Bruyne along with many others found it hard tonight. It's the clubs first European Cup Final along with all the players bar Gundogan. Yes we lost but it's a step forward and we will come again.

Not sure in europe under Pep, he has issues

 

[Dax777]

Pep needs to hire an assistant that won't let him do this in key games :(

Someone has to have the hots to say boss, no. We simply can't play without a DM. We haven't done it all season. We can't start now. Choose one. Either Bernado or Sterling, but you can't have both.

The question was Dihno or Rodri. And Pep answered Sterling. :(


He needs to hire someone that can say, No Sir. That can't be the answer in the finale. :(

 

[Cheesy]

Have you considered following cricket?

Tell me about Pep's great record in the CL in his time at the club.

 

[Pingu the Penguin]

Yet we're in the final. 3 out of 4 PL titles. He's done well enough I think

Ofc it is!

 

[remember arthur mann]

Fucking students are cheering next door!

Torch it.

 

[drthingy]

I know what you mean. Just feel we didn’t give it our best shot

 

[Gazza]

How much are flights to Switzerland?

One way, obviously.

 

[Chippy_boy]

If we truly want to win the CL we may need a different man in charge.

You'd have to consider that for sure. 10 years of not winning it with arguably the best team every year, and you do need to wonder why.

 

[argyle]

That's not how this works. You make it sound as if Tuchels gone on and won every trophy Chelsea can.

You know what he did that Pep didnt? He played his best players in their best formation.

 

[lightning Rodri]

Nothing about the lineup or Pep.


Chelsea were just better, no point looking for who to blame.

Absolutely disagree. We played out best midfield, we would have won more of the midfield battles and created more chances.

 

[Luke The Blue]

Spot on..why not pick your best most experienced team instead of fucking about with that selection and tactics.. after the semi final I thought Pep had got over the over thinking..

All on him tonight not for the first time

not seen the post match interviews but I hope he doesn’t say he was fucking proud of his team cos me and thousand of other fans weren’t

100% he can't say he's proud of his team in that game anyway. Even though we was shit I really don't want to blame the players when he's fucked the tactics and everything up, the team didn't have a clue what to do.

I posted a few weeks ago that I had some info that they would play a box 4 out of possession in midfield-they did and it completely killed our space and suffocated our midfield.
It was a lower div coach who knows a first team coach at Chelsea.
First goal was always the vital one. Too good for us-we need a strong quick centre forward.

 

[ElleBlue]

Disappointing but let's not lose sight of all what we've won under exceptional circumstances through a very harrowing season.

 

[teddykgb]

Id like ti see James handball again too. This time not from behind the goal with an obscured view.

It hit his body and bounced to his hand. There was nothing there

 

[wahablue]

3defeats to Chelsea in 6 weeks and we,ve learnt nothing,we still advance down the pitch at a funeral pace.Go back to the way we played in 2017/18/19.the forward line did not turn up ,our biggest match and they were a no show.

 

[AliBobbyJ]

Sadly Churchill was replaced by Halifax on this occasion and we lost to a German. Bitterly disappointing.

Clever.

 

[bennyboy]

The tactics led to a whole series of simple counter-attacks and they would
have scored from one eventually.

Pep just had to try and be clever. Why not play the system that the players know?

KDB,Mahrez,Gundogan,Foden,Zinchenko and Sterling second half were awful.Nothing to do with tactics.

 

[silvathechihuahua]

That ref is a a hole I hate this game when are we going to get a break in this competition like this season....no chance f’in terrible

 

[kismet]

That would be a phenomenal summer. Assuming Ferna gets a new deal.

We have until 6th June to make a decision on whether we take up the buy back on Douglas Luiz for 25m. Villa are desperate to keep him, but we have told them lets do a deal on Jack then.
