Match Thread | PSG vs Man City (29/09/21)

Sorry it’s all on pep for me. It was clearly not going to happen so get some strikers on. Raz & Mahrez have been awful. Most chance have fell to Kev.

we had attack after attack & they were pinned in but we let them off

Let them off as there are zero finishers in the club zero. Delap is instinctively brilliant at finishing but he’s not getting a look in hes the only natural finisher.

The difference when you have a proper finisher

You can have all the possession and potential chances in the world, but if you have no one to finish them you cannot compete...

Tonight epitomises the fact!!!

We will win nothing this season but we will see some amazing football... Travesty...

Mate there is a “proper finisher” and there is messi. It was a great goal by the best player of all time. Sometimes you just have to say well done

 

[PannickAtTheDisco]

And we have less than a decade of experience in the comp, mate... manage expectation, we are where we should be and it will come!

We are where we should be because Pep won't pick his best team consistently and when it matters, we hang onto players we should have cashed in on and don't buy what we need.

Disappointing result, assuming it stays as it is. But the overall performance wasn't at all bad. PSG were no better than us; poor defending for the first goal, and a top drawer finish for the second.

 

[Tricky_Trev]

Smash these fuckers at ours

And lose 1-0

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

BT just called Messi the 'messiah'...

FFS!!!

CUNTS.

 

[super_city_si]

I'm not convinced Ederson cant reach Messis goal. Unless he was wrong footed

 

[wolviedinho]

And the home leg?

Splitting feathers. No forward no champions league.

 

[Metalartin]

Cheeky bastards these PSG players. To go mental over not getting a throw-in after all the decisions they've got this game?

 

[Northblue]

Worrying form KDB at the minute, bits & bats of his genius but a shadow of the player he was, needs a striker to bring out the best in him

He’s like this for a few games every time he comes back from injury

 

[Crooked_rain]

Wouldn’t mind the result if PSG played really well, but they’re nothing special and haven’t needed to be that good

 

[OrigamiNinja]

Sterling and Mahrez have been shite for a considerable amount of time but you can’t blame Pep for picking them. It’s £500k pw of players, we cant just alienate them, and never play them. I’d rather lose tonight than against the scousers.

 

[Gordyola]

Wonder if these 2 would have creamed themselves if Messi was playing for us

 

[IcriedwhenTueartleft]

One of our more enjoyable defeats, one of those games, rather now than sweeping all before us like last year then stumbling at the final hurdle..

We have been excellent tonight and on another day win out of sight

We've had plenty of the ball but have lacked punch...we've played into their hands tonight...

 

[Chippy_boy]

Mahrez beat himself brilliantly

 

[argyle]

I'm not particularly demoralised. We've actually put in a good showing.

We had more possession but besides the horrendous Bernardo miss we've done fuck all.

 

[stan bowles]

It's an away group stage game. Not ideal but not terminal if we lose.

 

[madloaf]

BT just called Messi the 'messiah'...

FFS!!!

CUNTS.

Can you imagine them calling him that if he'd come to us??

 

[domalino]

We haven't had a single chance since Sterling went off and we've completely lost control of possession as well

 

[Franknorgrovesnephew]

These fuckers cry more than my 3yr old
