Champions League Final | Post-Match Thread

[Keeper!]

Big Sam gave Tuchel a football lesson a few a weeks ago.

Tommy has given Pep a fucking hard lesson tonight and Pep is not as good as he thinks

 

[Ashleymcduff]

No dm
No shots
Ridiculous

They are just set up perfectly to beat us. Pep isn’t some wanker or fucking idiot. It happens Chelsea played better than us we play into their hands and they deserved their win. Feels like it’s not to be in this competition with our current set up. Devastated

That team selection was stupid. We all know exactly how Chelsea play. That was kamikaze tactics and completely unnecessary.

This is his worst tactical decision yet because this was not a City side who couldn't defend (Lyon). I could understand his motivation then. Don't understand why he did this.

 

[eyalluvitt]

Felt like the Madrid semi a few seasons ago , we seemed to accept our fate much too easily.

 

[Robert Jordan]

Back to the drawing board. Chelsea cynical as usual, Ruddiger is a p.o.s.

 

[I'm Blue]

No defensive midfielder.
What the actual fuck?

 

[come-on-barney]

Sorry to say we were completely outsmarted by Chelsea. That was a defensive masterclass and we had no way to get through them.

So sad

Disagree. A tactical masterclass.

Not much between the two teams....chelsea defend so so well and so so compact and are dangerous in attack

Pep made a mistake with playing Gundo in DM instead of either Rodri or Ferna and the game changed when Ferna came on

Sterling and Mahrez went missing and Sterling should not have started but KDB wasnt great either

Kante and Reece James were excellent for chelsea as were the chelsea centre halves

 

[Toulousain85]

gutted like everyone else but really won't have too much time thinking about it. I'm not finished celebrating the PL yet. That is still a hugely successful season without a doubt.
PS. Pep soft spot for an all technical midfield will haunt him again, this is not the end of it.

 

[dizzian]

Blame on Guardiola that, Tuchel done him over tactically again. We had no players in the middle never had control of the game, should have changed it after 20min or at halftime. Oh well, a disappointing end to a good season.
