Champions League Final | Post-Match Thread

Very well put, and if our team could have actually scored a goal it would have helped.

That too!

 

[Robinho's Subbuteo]

Chelsea will challenge for the Title next year. We have had a few games where we collectively meltdown. Passing goes to hell ,errors creep in and we get beat. Derbies and Europe seem the main games where this phenomena occurs. Pretty much every player of ours looked off it tonight.

They barely made it into the top 4.

 

[The perfect fumble]

That's down to pep

Your writing is as bad as peps team selection

Fukk ooff

 

[Mr Mad]

17 goal passenger. He was played out of position tonight.

Did anyone have a position to play in ?

 

[madloaf]

We didn't win tonight because of gundogun. Such a garbage player in such a key role

We didn't win not because of 1 player. Come on lads. I know it's fun to WUM but we know that it isn't true. Remember we're all blues here.

 

[paulsimpson]

No but Pep shoehorning him into side cost us.

Well it nearly worked in the home game against them . Margins are small. But we didn't give ourselves the right platform. So we have to get better. It's a concern for next season. TT will be there again. Got to do better against him and other like minded teams .

Defence was ragged, nothing to do with Sterling.

Ragged because there was no pivot. And there was no pivot because he put in Sterling instead. A guy who's been useless for months.

 

[stan bowles]

Dreadfully disappointing. Surprising personnel and formation and then from the kick off simple mental errors repeated all over the pitch. No one willing to impose themselves on the game. Players seemed slow, hesitant and unsure of what they were trying to do. Chelsea far too well organised for us to make any inroads against but also easily able to play out from us to expose our defence. We looked better when De Bruyne went off injured. So many players just weren't at it tonight. A very poor end to a largely excellent season.

 

[Bluescholar]

Sadly I was right.

Hope you put your money on it too? Being such a fuckin expert like?

 

[Metal Biker]

You're an idiot mate if you don't think Chelsea are a very good team

Guess i'm an idiot then, because Chelsea have been shite this season and tonight was for the taking.

 

[Luke The Blue]

What's the

yes i am. Disgusted with gundogun. No reason for him to be playing over Fernandinho. Can't defend the counter, can't provide an assist, moves like a tank, WHAT IS HE GOOD AT. someone please enlighten me. Yes he scored some goals when cancelo and Bernardo did what he was supposed to do in DM, but an absolute waste. Look at Kante - that's who we need. Energy in midfield

You being serious about Gundogan? Pep threw him under the bus playing him as an holding midfielder.

You clearly don't watch us if you can't see what Gundogan is good at, he's vital to the way we usually play, he keeps hold of the ball so well. Also you should check who the leading goalscorer is.

Tonight? Err...

 

[Kippax77]

Lyon last season Chelsea this......Pep really needs to calm down over opposition.
Its the same when we play the Rags.....he builds them upto fuck and we end up losing.

fuck the rags fuck the competition.....we are Manchester City FC

 

[RayCTID]

They couodn't care less. Their season hinged on us not winning tonight. Sad & pathetic, but very true. That's how far the mighty have fallen.

I agree with the last bit

 

[come-on-barney]

Left out to dry how tho? Gundo played CDM when we won the league in 18/19. Fernandinho should of played today but the players didn’t turn up mate tonight

You have stated the problem right there

 

[Blueknows]

Has anyone seen Peps latest tweet?

 

[Gray]

Trophies won in England this season - City x 2, Leicester x 1, Chelsea x 1. The rest won a great big fat zero.

Sad we lost tonight but not a bad season overall.

 

[ancoats]

Bollocks


Every single midfielder was in each others way none of them had a clue where to go.

i think chelsea had a big say in how they worked us tonight ? did we really have a chance to score ? did we create enough chances like we normally do ? its just one of them nights sadly and the pain will hurt for a long time
but look we are millions time better than anybody in england.

give pep 2 world class strikers with this squad and next season we could win all 4 with a bit of luck

 

[Metal Biker]

Bollocks. The fact that they got to the FA Cup final and CL final makes them a good team. You don't do that by getting lucky in a couple of games.

And that makes them better thatn the Carabao Cup and Premier League champions, aye?

 

[East Level 2]

Pep has won 3 out of last 4 premier leagues.
Shit show pep yeah?

This is a post match thread, not a post season or post last 4 seasons thread.
