Club Brugge (A) - CL - Post-Match Thread

Pretty decent that.

Foden and Bernardo are first names on the team sheet.

Should add Rodri there mate. Without him we wouldnt be controlling the games like that

Brilliant tonight. We are just so much better in Europe. Hopefully, we can put our name on that trophy at the end of this season.

Won’t happen ………I’m afraid

Bloody UEFA, missed the first half cleaning the oven.

Great performance overall, but a sloppy 10 minutes defensively.

Made up for Cole, that'll be a big night for him.

Watch it slowed down. He was trying to pass to Mahrez.
Think Sterling will get a goal against Brighton.

I agree. I don't think he has any credit left in the bank with the fans. We can see what he is, just like we could see that Mendy had gone from useful before his injury to virtually useless afterwards. Sterling'll be gone by next season unless he can turn it round very quickly, as he's been rubbish nearly all this year, and our support of him has always been fickle because, even when he's been good, he still manages to look flakey.

Anyway, on the whole, an excellent performance. Clean sheet doesn't matter, but, it should have been 10. Foden was immense. Walker and Cancello very good. KDB still not quite at his best therefore still room for improvement = happy days!

So, come on Raheem - turn that bloody corner, will ya! Bang one in; get your confidence back and become undroppable as you were 18 months-2 years ago.

If Sterling had been that gunman in Dallas years ago, JFK would still be the president of America.

Would he have even found his way to the book depository?

Always pleased when Walker gets a goal, guy adds a lot to the team. Can have momentary lapses of concentration and known to give away the odd needless penalty, but overall he's been a fantastic signing. Not many better RB's around in the sport.

Yep I agree.

Obviously it's early days but as it stands does it look better on paper to finish first or second?

Yes, I understand the scheduling of home/away is important but I'm talking pure opposition

I doubt Messi would've hit JFK from that distance with a Carcano rifle either.

Ah yes,the humanitarian weapon.A vest and tee-shirt would be enough protection according to some weapons experts.

Obviously you have better chances in the Knock out stages playing against the 2nd spot teams. For example would you rather play Bayern or Barca/Benfica ?
