Hoffenheim (H) Post Match Thread

What's with fans bringing whistles? Surely it distracts our own players as much as the opposition?

Rave on

Wasteful but what a game to watch. End to end. Leroy and Raz were excellent.

Zinchenko had a Garrido v Chelsea performance.

Amusing game that was far too open emend looked more or less Pellegrini style. We deserved to win. Still trying to figure out how both Sane and Jesus didn’t score a hat trick. But you really have to admire the latter for the work rate and making others look better. Very humble kind a player who will come good no doubt.
Foden grew in to the game. A pleasant bonus.

Couldn’t see it properly from behind the goal - was it deffo a pen for them?

top of the group, and er that's about it. Injuries have taken the edge off our fluid fast moves, even so, the number of mistakes all over the pitch was a reminder that we are not the finished article yet. Hof had more clear chances than any visiting team i can recall in recent times, probably due to Fern's absence, Eddie had to be at his best on a couple of occasions because the defence were more like strangers than team-mates. If every chance had gone in, it would have been the highest scoring "game" in the history of the CL. Probably
Enough with the negative stuff, young Phil shrugged off making a couple of mistakes and fully justified his selection. Everyone put in a shift, some magic moments from Gab, Raz, Bernardo and of course Leroy.

I would say so, Laporte had his arms around The Hoffenheim player although I thought he went down very easily. I thought The Hoffenheim player may have been offside before the foul but I’m not certain about that.

Deserved win.
Unlucky on many occasions but our finishing is w*nk.
