Basel (H) Post Match Thread

So who did you want there last night? If he'd played Danillo there Walker would have had to start, better to continue the experiment and give Walker a rest imo.

agree he had no choice but that doesn't detract from his failings at left back
 
Apart from Sane non of them start as first choice, Ederson, Walker, Kompany, Otamendi, Delph/mendy, Fernandinho, Silva, DeBruyne, Sterling, Aguero and Sane is or would be the first starting 11, so nobody really impressed last although some did ok.

you have to say bernardo and jesus are not far from a first 11, but yeah the rest are back ups
 
The last couple of weeks I've been an optimist whomever we get, but after seeing both goals last night - the second in particular - I am dreading every team in QFs.

Why? I would imagine non of the back 5 from last night would play in a quarter final? Also we have a certain player in Fernandinio who is one of the best in the world in his position plus 2 rather special midfielders in Silva and De Bruyne. That is a back 8 players who id not play last night.

We have conceded 20 goals in the league this season.

won't be 9 or 10 of them playing, none of the back 5 so don't know how you can compare

Absolutely they are nearly first choice and slot in seemlessly no problem, just too many last night.
If we had needed a result we would of had a different team. Bring in the quarters
 
Its funny as before Jesus got injured, we were saying what a different player he is to Sergio and offers more. Yes, i know it was his first full game back, but watching last night it was crying out for Sergio running at them in the box. Jesus will be back to his best soon enough i'm sure.

forget that game now, and rest assured they'll be ready for Monday and the Quarter final

I think that dude is fucking brilliant. Players do not even bother arguing with him as he has a hand waving hissy fit if they do so it's just not worth it hahahahah.
 
Why all the heartache. We played for 45 minutes over 180. The objective is to get to the next round which we achieved by 3 clear goals. We took players off in the first game early. We rested half a dozen totally. Our core players have an eight day break at the business end of the season. Think about the wankers from salford. They have to play there best 11 twice in 5 days. We want to win but win the war not one battle. The management is putting the squad at the highest point of readiness for the last 15 games of the season. How many wi have fresh players with two trophies in the bag for cl semi. Get fucking real its about the end game
