NOR at fault there, absolutely shockingly bad from him, far too high a line as well

 

[Bluethemaway]

Too much inexperience showing for us.

 

[youngbob]

You cannot pretend to be a top team and concede goals like this. DIsgusting!

Yes you can. Top teams concede goals like that all the time.

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Semenyo and Savinho have been beyond shit so far.

 

[dela]

That's such a poor goal to give away

 

[waspish]

Weird shit happens to us at Madrid that goal never in any of our dreams Madrid would score a goal like that

 

[paulchapo]

Most goals we concede are often a result of our fuck ups.

Oh. My. Word.

That's a defensive meltdown by Manchester City.

A long punt forward by Thibaut Courtois finds skipper Federico Valverde and his first touch takes him away from Nico O'Reilly.

But there are big questions about Gianluigi Donnarumma's positioning.

The Manchester City goalkeeper is well off his line when Valverde takes it past him and scores.

First blood to the record 15-time winners.

Regardless of how bad they’re doing in the league, its still Real Madrid and they always turn up in this competition.

 

[Cobra]

It’s pretty much 50-50 as to whether Semenyo will control a pass into him

 

[dannyboiblue]

Semenyo touch awful

 

[Blueknows]

Can't win the ball without it being a free kick now wtf

 

[super_city_si]

We are on top but letting them get too close to our area and they get the first goal. Back at it City

They’ll just hit us on the counter now.

 

[AirbagsOptionalTheReturn]

This ref is wank as well

 

[Damanino]

Semenyo unless he scores his general play are often horseshit.

 

[MCFC1993]

Tell Savinho, Haaland and Semenyo we've kicked off, that'd help.

 

[jrb]

Pep messing about with the formation and team again.

 

[Blue-Ghana]

Only Doku has stared well , Savio , Haaland , and semanyo have been poor

 

[hertsblue]

Exactly the same problem as the last game here agaisnt Rodrygo ! O’Reilly totally out of his depth, caught flat footed.

He’s not a LB not at any level

Having that midfield in front of him isn't helping. Biggest revamp area needed in the summer.

 

[skillman]

Wish we’d stop asking Semenyo to take it on the half turn in tight spaces

 

[BlueMonkey79]

This stupid high line kills us against top teams
