Champions League Final | Post-Match Thread

Don’t get changing the team for the final that’s just what seems to be pissing the fans off also as much as I like stones and he’s had a good season I still prefer Laporte big mistake if we let him go , anyway we will win champions league in the next couple of years MCFC
 
I miss the days when we lost games with our best 11 giving everything on the Pitch.

You went and had a pint,and had no problems losing the game to a better team.

Litrally every defeat under Pep feels like it is his fault.

I should be waking up today,thinking fair play to Chelsea they beat the best team we could put out against them on the night.

But i am not.....i am thinking "yet another defeat 100% on Pep" to go with thrown Semi-Finals,and Derbies we throw every season.

Why does he try and reinvent the Wheel....it is mind boggling

Honestly i thought he had come of age this season,Found a winning formula.Not only a winning formula,a record breaking European formula.Proven all the way to Porto.

Anfd just like that he changes it.

Is it any wonder we are all so fucking angry.

None of us are talking about the game.Just Pep.
Totally agree...and the worrying thing is this will continue....all the big games and he tinkers and we more than often lose....to do it in a CL final is unforgivable.....
 
We go again next season. Whatever said and done, I am proud of everyone at the club for this season. Yesterday hurt a lot, but we cannot define a team over a basis of 90 minutes. Reading a few comments on here and you would think we finished outside the European places in the league. 24 hours on and every player and staff is being questioned. We are one of the best teams in the world. We lost to a better team on the night. Let no one talk you down on what the club has achieved this season. Lets see which team can go as deep in all 4 competitions in any season as we did. We have a young team, which will only hit its peak after a few years. Txiki, Pep and the squad were 90 minutes from being the best thing ever and suddenly people are calling them out. We fucked up, but its definitely not doom and gloom.
Nobody is having a personal go at the players...they do what Pep says, but the point is...WHY does he tinker when there is no need to ? It is truly a mystery !!!!!!!!
 
I just watched the replay again so I can get more pissed. And the goal was all zinch fault. He is casually running behind Kai and even when Kai points where he wants it he never really seems to care and really go after him until it’s too late.
 
I won't argue with you on this because we were probably watching different sources but, I could only here City and they were loud as fuck.
What were you watching on?

BT mate. I can only remember hearing a few City songs. Just seemed a bit of a weird atmosphere. My mate was sat near the Chelsea fans and he said last night that it was majority of City in Porto but in the stadium he had a weird feeling that we would lose and their fans were well more up for it. He probably doesn’t represent all City fans in the stadium, but I don’t think Peps line up did us all any favours. I’m probably speaking shit like I always do, but fuck it.
 
Devastated today, even more so than yesterday.

Pep got it wrong but we can’t blame everything on him either.

When I saw the line up I couldn’t believe it. Sterling??? The player who’s out of form completely. From March he has ONE goal in all competitions for us, ONE GOAL!! , he didn’t start any of the quarter final or semi final matches but Pep starts him in the final?? Wtf.

A midfield that hasn’t played together in a year? Our only match this season without Rodri or Fernandinho starting was a CL final. Haha what a joke.

By starting Sterling, we moved Gundogan to DM where he hasn’t played in ages, we move Foden from LW where he’s been fantastic.

Despite the selection we played poorly. A lot of players were invisible. So it can’t all be on Pep. What ever the line up, had we even started with a 352 the players need to do better and rise to the occasion.

and the handball?? Looked like a James handball to me? Didn’t see it mentioned much here and no replays were shown. Very strange.

overall one huge disappointment at the end of a wonderful season. Let’s hope we can improve the squad this summer and then try to retain the league and win some more trophies next season.
Some good points Easy. We played poor, no doubt about it. Not the best set up either. A few have suggested Sterling's inclusion was the cause, but that alone didn't make the whole team(including subs) play bad from the first whistle to the last, which is what happened.
 
Seems like we all shit the bed on the big night management, players and fans.
