CSKA Post Match Thread

[Jack74]

This is not manager's fault. Same shit happening with both Mancini and Pellegrini, it's obvious that this group of players have some giant blockade when it comes to performances in Europe.

Of course it is

He was the one who took our best player off (Silva) and left a passenger on (Toure)

Just another manager who is afraid of making big decisions

Best player Silva. You watch the same match as me? Continuously gave the ball away

Leave it out Silva is the best player ever according 2 the majority on here laughable, now I know Toure was shit but Silva was only slightly better and again according 2 some he was are best player

Fucking naïve beyond belief from our manager, shut it down at 0-2 and play on the break, way to open, clean sheet at all costs but he just plays the same way every game. He needs to adapt to situations quickly but is found wanting badly again in this completion. Not many of us can stand Mourhino but there is no way one his teams would have let that slip.

Because he has been told to do that by Txiki and Soriano. If you have listened what those spaniards have said in the interviews in the past. They don't want manager to be defensive.

 

[St Helens Blue (Exiled)]

I agree with you regarding Toure Tolmie

However, you are letting off Pellegrini......he continues to play 442 in a competition that we have done nothing in and then wonder why we keep failing

It isn't the Premier League with technically inferior players. Most teams have players who can play and if you give them an inch they will take advantage.

It may be harsh, but I believe we should be asking serious questions of the manager's ability to get it right in Europe.

get klopp in for me

Really..!
You want pellegrini out?
And I get called a fucking rag!!

pellegrini is naive in europe..navas on..silva off...
never called you a rag at all.
im sick of his stubbornness mate..4-5-1...2 up for fuck sake.
terrible terrible tactics

 

[urban genie]

As radiohead once sang

"You do it to yourself you do, and that what realy hurts"

Threw it away but we can still sneak through but have to rely on munich, perplexed as why we do this every year when we are better than this

Nothing more to say.

 

[lancs blue]

once again FUCKED by a ref in the CL. is there a pattern emerging here? have any team we have played in the CL been fucked by the ref????

We fucked ourselves tonight, if Toure does his job instead of trying a fancy flick 30 yards from his own goal the ref has no decision to make.

well we will NEVER EVER progress in europe with these tactics...two up..shut ip shop..five across the.middle...fucki g hell im mad

 

[NanaToure42]

Correct me if I'm wrong but couldn't 2 wins a draw against Bayern put us thru. If Roma losses to Bayern (twice), losses to us and beats Moscow

 

[The slaughtered lamb]

We fucked ourselves, pathetic to blame officiating.

A bit like the sun coming up each day, referees make shit decisions.

If only our talent matched our arrogance and naivety.

Time to face facts, this set of players don't have the urgency required to play at this level.

And just like the bollocks performance against Blackburn in the FA Cup, which ensured another game we could have done without, we're now looking at an extended campaign in the Europa League.

Pellegrini has shown far too much loyalty to certain players, who have repaid him and the club by mugging him off.

The elephant in the room remains the liability which is Toure.

He's offering nowt and much more of this and we will have to pay him off to join another club.

Exactly

Exactly x2 .Stop whingeing Blues its nearly as sickening as that second half.

I don't think there's too much disagreement to be fair. Most accept we were the architects of our own downfall with the second half performance but we were still fucked over again by a chumps league referee.

Calling for a replacement now is appalling.
And I know you don't label me a rag.

 

[Lavinda Past]

Said it before... say it again...

Pellegrini is not good enough to take us where we want to be. Clueless tosser - He couldn't 'engineer' a fart.

Toure is still a ****.

 

[Chi-town blues]

Pelle can not take this club to next level. Sorry

 

[kippaxblue76]

Anybody want to challenge my belief from a few weeks ago that Pellegrini has taken us as far as he can?

I think he needs to develop a bit more pragmatism at times.

Exactly. Same old same old.

 

[super_city_si]

BENT AS FUCK

We were abysmal and invited that on to us. With the standard of refereeing in this competition it's no surprise a dodgy penalty was given with the amount of time they spent in and around our area.

 

[Blue Maverick]

Tixi wtc can have their fancy football to get us to 2-0 then you shut up shop 5 in midfield and play on the break job done, the club should take responsibly all involved, dodgy decision but we shouldn't have been in that position in the first place.

 

[GaudinoMotors]

Correct me if I'm wrong but couldn't 2 wins a draw against Bayern put us thru. If Roma only Moscow

Yeah and seven wins and England win the World Cup

 

[St Helens Blue (Exiled)]

get klopp in

 

[bluemonkey71]

Not sure why Pellegrini is getting all the grief. The players looked knackered in the second half. Dino looked awful when he came on and we just kept hacking the ball out with no composure whatsoever. We should have sewn that game up.
Kolarov and Yaya had a shocker for me and the ref was a joke.

 

[blue_sonic176]

Wait, if Roma draw/lose today we only need to beat CSKA and Roma, right?

Yes, assuming they beat CSKA and lose to Bayern in both fixtures. However, beating Roma away is going to be near impossible if we play the way we have been.

 

[blueinsa]

A league and Europa double will do very nicely this season!
