Champions League Final | Post-Match Thread

[Keeper!]

BT had that sound bias imo

I blame the ref

 

[Norbert D]

Yep disappointed we lost, but thank fuck it’s over. I really couldn’t stand another few weeks like the ones we have just had. We need to remember where we’ve come from and how this is all fantasy stuff.

 

[Marvin]

That got us to the final and won 3 out of the last 4 PL titles.
Suck it up scouser

He still made a stupid decision, and then he was too proud to correct it. CFC were getting straight onto our defence throughout that 1st half and of course they would. They had 3 quick forwrds whose game is made for that.

Pep played straight into Tuchel's hands. He made another colossal mistake. If he got fired tonight, no one would blame Mansour.

 

[Invisible Man's Bandage]

Chelsea never looked the slightest bit ruffled at any point in the game and they just kept to their game plan.

We looked clueless and it became more shambolic as the game went on. At least we don't feel robbed by the referee or VAR because the best team on the night won.

Tough to take but there you go.

 

[Jamiblue]

How many of us would’ve thought we wouldn’t have to mention Lyon again this season then?

 

[US_Citizen]

I got to admit sterling was annoying. Tbh kdb black eye, foden bravery and just keep going attitude were better examples of how hard we played

I agree Foden and some others refused to go down

 

[M Gaudino]

Tonight was disappointing but if someone said to me City will be in the Chumps League final 20 years ago I would not have believed them. City are a very well run club with exciting youth players coming through. Tonight is hard to take but we have come a long way and the future is bright...if we keep going in the same direction our time will come...

this is getting tired - “oh we were playing Macc 20 years ago etc”

we had a chance to be treble winners tonight and shove it up both Red wankers and it wont happen again.

 

[Roachy]

I am going to swallow this and say Chelsea deserved it. Two flaws tonight as I saw it, was Pep's arrogant selection and Sterling's performance.

Sorry to say Sterling no worse than anyone else. Defence all over the show, Stones being the main one.

 

[murur0a]

We’d have been better off with Big Sam behind the bench tonight, at least Walker would have started chugging the ball up the pitch a lot earlier, hoping for a lucky bounce, instead of waiting till the added time.

 

[give it to gordon]

We looked like rabbits in headlights

 

[Citycity76]

How many fuck of Sterling posts / threads will be deleted tonight. Admin working overtime

 

[Sheik Battle and Goal]

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

The quote of the night sir!!

 

[Txiki Txiki Bang Bang]

Bizarrely, this is probably a good result for next season. It means the players will be determined.

Thats like saying you lost all your money and got dumped by your wife but this is good as I would be determined to make more next year.......makes a lot of sense, doesn't it?

 

[mscenterh750]

Absolutely gutted but we’ve had a fantastic season and finally had a taste of a champs league final, so I expect us to make it again and win it the next time round.

 

[City10.]

Handed it the trophy to a bang average team so easily. Most on this forum would've gotten the XI right ffs man this is so depressing

 

[Grealish’s Shinpads]

I haven't had enough of Pep but I agree that we needed Fernandinho in that team what a fucking stupid decision to drop our best player for an out of form one. It literally fucked the team right up. How many games has Gundogan played holding midfield this season?

None. And Gundogan has - in my opinion - been our best player this season...playing that 8 role. He was desperately missing from there.

 

[Stoned Rose]

Some shameful shit that.

We play with a holding midfielder in literally every fucking game of the season, but tonight, let's fuck that off and play as open as possible?

Let's be solid as fuck defensively all season then just fuck that off in a CL final?

Pep is an absolute God but he is such a twat at times.

I cannot describe how angry and disappointed I am.

 

[Cheesy]

Question for anyone saying this wasn't down to Pep tonight?

Would any of you have started Sterling?

Would any of you played Gundy as a defensive midfielder?

 

[blueparrot]

Probably will.

 

[bluemoon32]

Our fans were shocked we did not turn up, I would be furious if I spend a lot of cash going to watch that

True, thank fcuk i didnt pay all that money to watch that shit tonight
