Champions League Final | Post-Match Thread

I just wonder if, despite his " I don't care about the referee" verbals, Pep was genuinely afraid that Fernandinho would be targetted by the referee and get an early red card, hence the weird team selection. No other possible theory springs to mind.

So by not start Rodri then to give some protection?
 
Still absolutely gutted and annoyed about last night's performance. Just need a total break from football for a while. What's that? Euros start in 12 days and next seasons fixtures are out the following week? Yeh that should do.
 
Cameras dwelt on Jesus sitting on the pitch after the final whistle, being consoled by Cancelo, and I got the very real impression that he was frustrated and baffled by the way the manager had us set up, and I think his sentiments would have been echoed elsewhere in the dressing room. The whole team looked lost and not sure what was required of them.

Would a manager really be that worried about a ref ? That he wouldnt play his strongest team because of the ref ?
 
Slept on it, not much I can add to what you've all said, Pep dropped a bollock.
But...it's been a fantastic season considering what's been going on in the world, won two trophies and played in every game available bar one, pretty crazy!
Gonna give this place a swerve till the season starts, charge the batteries and try to forget about football.
Up the fucking blues.

I’m curious. In your view, who is the best manager in the world?

I don't know I don't care, this is the real world we are not playing top trumps.

Pep is a genius who has changed football and how it's played BUT he has serious flaws.

3 times losing to Ole, his record against Tommy T terrible, his record against Klopp poor.

I am not into silly little titles, best player, best stadium, best pitch

Ah, so it's Pep out (again). Ok. You crack on.

"Blue glasses" ?.....not really, just appreciate what we have. Be careful what you wish for with this manager.
 
Well,,totally gutted this morning sporting a very sore head..We have the PL and Carabao cup this season.. won endless trophies over the last few years...good heavens, wait until we actually have a real downturn because this season is far from that..just can not stand some of the raggish comments on here..a bloody disgrace..count your blessings boys..we never win at home and we never win away..where is that spirit ????

who has said Pep out?

don't put words into people's mouths.

Pep fucked up, big time, his post match interview was embarrassing.

I hope this week Khaldoon, Tixiki are having a serious talk about what happened, in my humble, it's required.
 
Would be Herr Flick?

Pep would be the best in England for winning Premier League and Carabao Cup
Tommy Tickle for wining Champions League
So, by definition, Flick would be best in the world for winning the World Club Cup thingy
