Job done. Both penalties were harsh imo. Just tie defenders arms behind their backs before games at this point. We owe Madrid for that bullshit last year. Can’t wait.

Cruised it against one of the 3 best teams in Europe and we were pretty shit tonight in all honesty. Haaland gives us that extra something, very much the missing piece.

That ref was a joke, tried to make everything about him. As for that penalty, just wow. A staggeringly shit decision. I genuinely laughed when I saw mane ask for it, Tuchel fucking laughed at it, that's how pathetic of a decision it was.

Ake injury is a colossal blow for us though.not having him to pocket saka again is going to hurt us. If we are lucky it could be just a tweak and he's taking no risk but if that's hamstring injury as it looks, that's 4-6 weeks, might see him back for any final we might make it to.

Gomez will appear and play a hero's role don't worry

That’s arguably a tougher fixture then Real Madrid away.

Not now it's not

Professional performance and that’s all that was required. Top effort from everyone tonight!!! Shame about Ake though.

Such a professional performance, but we need to show more composure when going ahead in these European away games. We suddenly stopped playing and were inviting Bayern on all the time. Great defending throughout and Akanji motm.
Bring on Real, let's not fear them

Rubbish mate 'we stoped playing ' we soaked up the pressure and that's what you do when you 3 or 4 up

What?? Rodri out would mean our season is over.
I hope nothing serious at all. And even though Phillips seems like an ex football player right now, I say put Phillips against Sheffield.

What does Sam fuckin Lee know?
If Rodri pulled a muscle in the warm up, he either wouldn't have even started, or wouldn't have lasted anything like 90 minutes.
Bollocks.

First of all, what a fantastic match it was, I think we played very well.

But, I think we have a serious problem with the penalties. We simply missed too many in the last years.
I'm not blaming Haaland or saying this because he missed one; this is something that I think for a long time.
I think we really need to improve our penalty shooting (and stopping). In this moment, I would feel in disadvantage in a penalty shootout, and that's a situation that we could easily find.

Leaving that aside, get ready, Real Madrid, we want revenge and we are going to take it!

Two non penalties, in my opinion. But once he'd given ours, he was bound to give them their one, to avoid accusations of bias or inconsistency.

The first, against Bayern, was harsh, but there was a shot, on target, and the player moved his arm towards the ball which, admittedly, he barely touched - so it was harsh. The second, against City, was ridiculous: ball bounces vertically up from player's foot to hand, having been hit hard at his foot; the ball was not, at the point of impact, going towards goal, or towards another player. (I suppose that it could be seen as a bit of lightning-fast foot-hand coordination, but I'm not persuaded.) If any contact with a hand is now to be given as a penalty then we are in for some lively times, but I suspect that the "rule" won't be applied so strictly, in which case there will be inconsistency, and even more liveliness.
