Champions League Final | Post-Match Thread

Chelsea goal was a ball right through the heart of our defence. It needed to be stopped at source, on the halfway line. Ferno is an expert at knowing when we are in danger of this type of goal. The first goal was crucial in this game, it allowed Chelsea to close up shop and they did it well. They left no space. The first time we got the ball across their six yard box the player waiting to tap it in was Gundo. To late.
Don't mind conceding but we are renowned for outscoring our opponents.
But we didn't even create anything.
That hurts most
 
Amazing the amount of bollox posted about Pep. He will be more gutted than anyone for this not to come off.

We’ve seen some of best football in the history of the English game since Pep arrived and were only too ready to call our genius manager.

We have become such an entitled bunch in recent years, it’d be good for SM et al to fuck off so some fans can get a reality check an experience another York away moment.
You’ve hit the nail on the head. Let’s have our owner and superstars fuck off so you can spite some internet people. Let’s all call it a day. We shall never take enjoyment out of anything in life cos others have it worse. Glad that’s sorted

Exactly this. If we did the unthinkable and got rid of Pep, or hounded him out as fans I can think of a Salford club who would gratefully accept our gift.
Complete over reaction to yesterday’s defeat. The last seven clubs (now eight) to contest the Champions League for the first time lost, Chelsea being one of them. It’s all part of the process. Whatever you thought of yesterday’s final it was far better than our previous best effort which was turgid semi final v Real Madrid where we barely left our own half.
 
Werner for all his faults puts in a lot of effort as seen by his movement and pressing yesterday. He’s been crucial to their set up recently. Sterling has not, there’s the difference
Werner is great outside the box you are spot on. Inside the box he is a pudding but I have a feeling he won't be next season
 
Absolutely. Pep is a genius and it's hardly a damning criticism to say that he MAY make mistakes. The history of the last 5 years is clear: if you're going to trust anyone's judgement - it's Pep's.
He enjoys tactics too much and trying to show the world that he is Pep Guardiola the son of Cruyff. However it will be fun seeing him trying again.

Bitter pill to swallow but it comes with titles, fantastic football, and Manchester City and the centre of the footballing world.
 
We need to be able to have a rock solid defence in CL games. We didn't last night.
Chelsea always had an extra man in the centre when we were defending.
 
Still feeling pretty low this morning following last nights result but disappointed to see some of the comments on here regarding Pep and the comments around overthinking etc... The way I see it is that he simply tried to change things slightly to get a different result against a team that has beaten us twice recently playing the way people say he should have played. Exactly the same thing as v Lyon last year when we lost a game with a team he changed slightly to try and prevent the same result that occurred at home in the group stages to the same team. I have no problem with him trying to affect change, even if it is in arguably the biggest game of the season for this team. Didn’t someone once say that the definition of madness is doing the same thing repeatedly and expecting a different result?
