Navas doesn't look great
Hart needs dropping
Richards - so so
Nasty - not good enough - cant defend
Clichy - weak
Ya ya - too slow
Fernadinio - bad buy
Dzecko - been average since day 1
Manager - boring

Considering we have spent millions in the summer are we any better???

To me it was cost cutting reducing the wage bill and our quality has dropped - Tevez and ballotelli Barry and de yong - class.

Very very worrying.

Perhaps Dzecko and Hart but the result was because of tactical errors

Agreed that the midfield two was a very poor decision but you can't legislate for the individual errors either. We would have been beaten anyway I've no doubt but hart had limp wrists tonight, Clichy must have seen another ball on the pitch and Fernandinho should know not to trying and dribble through a midfield that had swamped him all night.

Yaya plays shit, not his fault.
Fair enough

Shut up the whole midfield was over run Bayern High pressing what the fuck where they supposed to do blame the manager he got it wrong Pep got it right
Absolutely. Should have had 3 in midfield, i agree.
Doesn't change the fact that milner did more than him in 15 minutes.
He's world class when he has an age on the ball, but that isn't a luxury he has at this level.

Was that after Bayern had taken their foot of the gas and taken off their better players, and our manager decided to give our midfield a chance to compete by playing 5 against theirs
 
Very poor, Needed to change tactic after 15 mins two in midfield constantly over run.

Bayern great. Can't help think we made them look better though.
 
You can buy every player under the soon and play them all the money they want, but you can't make them want it.
Certain players will happily just do enough to get buy and leave with the wage.
We were outplayed, outfought and frankly, out thought for 80 minutes of the game. We only got back into it because they got sloppy and took their foot off the gas.
These Bayern players are mostly German, these players are a result of the work done at the grassroots, the majority of the German team (correct me if I'm wrong) play in Germany. Last season the CL final was contested by two German teams. They and Spain, are doing what we're not. The Premiership is rellying mostly on foreign players because we just don't have the players available.

They are a different class. They're ability to fill every hole, to back eachother up and just work so hard is outstanding. When a player loses the ball they've a total of 6 seconds to try and win it back, if not they fall back and let the next player deal with it. Rarely do they not win it back in those six seconds. We tried everything, we lost the ball and they won it back straight away, it was relentless. There was very little we could have done on our best day. Never mind playing poorly.
We're an excellent team and a big fish in our pond. But there are bigger fish and larger ponds, and that's just the way of life.
We can't buy every decent player on the planet, and we can't buy heart and spirit that's been embeded in a club, that is obviously going to come easier to a group of Germans playing in Germany than a bunch of foreign players brought to England who would probably have gone to any other club for the right price.
We can only be happy with what we have and be grateful for the standard we do have when you look at where we came from.
 
Poor result but reading through some of these comments... do people really believe Pellegrini will be out by January?? Come on now lets not get too carried away by a defeat to the defending European champion,s and favorites to repeat it again this year!!!! Time to move on to Everton!
