Real Madrid post match post mortem

Doh!……..but……. Bernie Bernie Bernie……wtf? Convinced himself the goalie was going to dive either way

I don't really mind so much putting down it the middle, people do put penalties down the middle but floating it into the keepers arms like that was insane.

The fact the Keeper made absolutely no attempt to dive either way is because he could see it was floating towards him.
 
I have to say Haaland is really letting us down in the big games. Doing absolutely nothing. You don’t sign and pay all that money for someone to simply occupy the opposition defence and make space for others. At times last season he was unplayable but most teams seem to have worked him out now and he is being completely nullified.
100% this. I put in the Haaland thread he went off injured maybe it’s a blessing in disguise
 
And WTF has Pep done to Bernie??? Used to waltz past players for fun and over 120 minutes didn't take his man on once. Not once.
Same with Grealish. He can do what Doku does, but he never does. And fair enough, if that's how you want him to play, but why does Doku get free reign to take people on when Bernardo and Grealish (and Mahrez before) are clearly told to hold onto possession? I'm fully expecting Doku in a couple of years to be just recycling the ball instead of taking anyone on.
 
They came for a draw, got it. They then played for pens and got them. Pep taking off Kev and Erling didn't help those but 2 poor pens did us. Did the delay spook Bernardo? If it did, can someone slap the **** that did it. Tbh, we never looked like winning, again our last pass and shot(or lack of them) was telling. I'm now very fearful that this extra time has totally fucked us for Saturday. The only nugget of comfort is the league will be a lot easier herein without these added games rammed in. Well be back! CTIFD!!!
 
This ref is gash. He's the same one who let them feign their way to a win two seasons ago. He's barely calling things against them, between phantom fouls and corners not given. Where is the ref from the first leg? He was quality
wtf are you on about. thought the ref was basically perfect. i didnt disagree with a single decision
 
We can no one other than ourselves

Too slow at beginning

All of a sudden once we upped it they couldn't handle it
Agreed, started so slowly the first half just passed us by and is what killed us despite being better side overall on the night... that means nothing though now unfortunately.

Have to ask why Rodri didnt step up to take a pen having taken and scored two in a game for Spain recently... unless he was just out on his feet.

I'm sure they'll want to put it right on Saturday now to finish the season strongly... special mention to the FA for putting us in the Saturday slot to give us precisely 48 hours rest before playing again... cunts.
