Real Madrid post match thread

We make fun of Utd blowing money

We wasted a quarter of billion pounds in January on players who aren't good enough to get into THIS team

Just think about that
How would you know today? Pep didn't play them.
Terrible in my opinion and I fear what Madrid will do to us in the second leg.

Peps having a terrible season and is compounding it with bizarre selections, even stranger substitutions and a shape that's continually leaving his players exposed which too much distance to cover.
Agreed. Playing a high line against that lot = idiotic.
 
Spot on,once Lewis came on unfortunately I knew he’d struggle against Vinicius,as you mention why not Khusanov with his pace,as for the medical team god knows what they are doing but someone needs held to account over constant injuries every team gets them but ours is beyond a joke now,although we are also probably rushing players back which we never did,surprised they won’t try and tell Rodri oh your fine you can play in a week or two,the whole club this season is a fucking shambles..
Been saying for ages Lewis not good enough and I get blasted.
 
We struggle against every team at present, tonight's result shouldn't have come as any surprise, it's just the shit manner in which it happened. No more Gundogan, Bernardo in this team and Kev used a lot more sparingly, they're finished.
Marmoush has to play centrally, stuck out on the fucking left wing when he came on zero chance to impress. Pep will probably mould him into a right full back before the season ends

Let's got honest guys we are a team in transition let's get over it well beaten tonight if we're all honest could have been a lot more summer coming more fullbacks young legs in midfield and we'll be back again
 
Game went to pot the minute Rico came on.

He's absolute garbage. Went walkabout for their first and the third, I've seen women's footballers go in harder and win that.

Eddie didn't cover himself I'm glory either rushing out like a crazed lunatic.

We are miles away from competing at the top again. Absolutetly miles away!!!

We spend up north of nearly 200 million and he rolls out Rico and Gundo.

Fucking pathetic Pep!!!
 
Predictable as I feared in my pre match post and it gives me absolutely no pleasure to be proven right. The happy clappers ( One in particular ) can give me stick and call.me negative but I've supported this club for over fifty years. I love them but I don't let my love for them cloud my judgment and say how I think a game will go. No amount of staying positive and cheer leading will give us energy in midfield, stop us making awful.mistakes, miss chances or improve our physicality or mentality.

Any win we have had this season we have scraped except against an awful Ipswich twice and Salford. Even bang average sides are creating chances against us game after game. We can't hold onto a lead and even worse if we do concede we often collapse completely. If tonight's game would have gone on another twenty minutes it would have ended up 5-2 to Madrid.

Sure in flashes we look.like the treble winners we were but that's about it, flashes. It's just not enough at the top level. A massive rebuild is needed in the summer and that's not including the players we've just signed. I pray they prove their worth but nothing is guaranteed, they're young and for the future. We need at least two proven world class signings. More worrying for me is our mentality or lack.of it. How has a team who were renowned for their grit and fight become so fragile? How???

Finish the season now. If we scrape into the top four it will be an unexpected bonus but I must admit it's looking unlikely. It's not negativity it's cold harsh reality and no amount of happy clapping will change that.
 
Thought we played well until the legs went. Thought Stones, Dias and Ake did well considering they've had next to no football. Shame about Jack going off. Everything just conspiring against us this season. I'd never slag Ederson off he was colossal in our CL final win. We need some big changes in the Summer and I'm sure Pep will sort it. Push for top 5 and the FA Cup. Would be a great season of we get both. Chins up Blues.

And that's exactly why I bet against us @BlueMoonRisin’

Have to ease that fucking soul crushing pain somehow.
 
them missing their best defenders and we only created at the Etihad the first goal, an Akanji header from corner and the pen situation, is that it?

6 shots vs their 13, 10 vs 19 if include blocked shots.

we failed just as big in attacking as in defending to be fair here.

Bernardo, Savinho, KDB added nothing in attacks sadly. you cant afford that in a tight CL game.
 
Yes ,wr are pretty average this season ,but what makes players make so many individual errors every game and totally collapse from winning situation??this is not only legs have gone shit , this has to be something deeper.
Yes.
Tactics.
Formations.. ect..

If players are fucked move them on.
If players are tired on 60 sub em..

If the oppo are cutting through us change it tactically..

If your asking my opinion peps fault.

He's too fuckin stubborn.
Teams have moved on tactically and he won't.

Oh... And ederson... ****.
