Leverkusen (H) | CL | Post Match Thread

[OldhamBlue94]

Pep can actually fuck off after that. Madrid away next whoop de fucking doo. I hope Savinho never kicks a ball for us again and the same goes for reijnders. Embarrassing. Winning becomes habit so play your best team and then maybe rest a few against Leeds at home. Dont think I’ve been this pissed off at a city performance in years

Saving, oh dear….and he played the full 90…bobbins

 

[Dial M 4 Mercer]

Without Rodri and Haaland playing we are a very mediocre side at best.

 

[manimanc]

No beating around the bush that was a dire performance.

Basil or Kate?
Prefer Kate personally but having said that I'll go for Basil as Kate is about 80.

 

[Phoenix900000]

£40+ to watch that live

Nice one

I feel sorry for anyone that paid to watch that

Chelsea schooling Barca with our academy players

 

[OrigamiNinja]

The absolute arrogance of that starting XI. Imagine watching this City side for the past 12 months and then putting that XI on the pitch in a Champions League game. That team would have struggled against any side, in any division in English football, never mind against a very decent CL side.

We have bought some utter shite in recent years.

 

[Paulmcfc2703]

On Pep that.

Disgraceful team selection but it once again highlights the piss poor recruitment over the last 2 seasons.

 

[Silvatoure21]

savinho. Why on earth is he getting minutes?? Trafford - all you complaining that he is too good to be a back up. LOL on that. This team is frustrating and Pep made some wild choices tonight.

 

[BertTrautmann'sParachute]

Well, that was hilariously bad.

 

[meeesh]

The only thing Pep has achieved tonight is that it’s stopped players knocking on his door asking for game time or a move, after that shit show I hope a few do ask for a move, B team I said and so it proved

 

[Manchester33]

100% on Pep for starting a second XI. Got the result we deserved.

 

[HolisticJim]

Going backwards

 

[argyle]

Awful from start to finish.

Savinho, Bobb, Lewis, Ait-Nouri, Reijnders, Ake, Marmoush - all fucking awful and aren't good enough.

Our transfers and squad management has been atrocious for 3 years or so now.

Going to take another couple of years to repair the damage of complacency.

 

[dronefromsector7G]

3 points tossed away by that bizarre line up. Nice one Pep.

 

[eversince 76]

Pep and his staff clearly underestimated a very good Leverkusen side. We were a pain to watch.

CL will be another awkward affair with Real away next.

The momentum after the Liverpool game has totally vanished.

 

[Dax777]

Absolute disgrace and I was a happy clapper after Saturday thinking we created enough to win were bit unlucky! But fucking 10 changes…. When we’re in such a strong position in the champions league table! Absolute madness! That team would have struggled to break down a championship team let alone a champions league team! Fuming tonight real poor poor decision! And 2 shots on target for them two goals it has to stop! Really pissed me off

There is only 1 person who doesn't know this apparently :(

 

[Saddleworth2]

They were good.
We were wank.
Pep’s fault tonight.

 

[Cobwebcat]

Pep’s interview will be interesting.

We have at least rested players for the World Class….Leeds.

 

[Gibblue]

Soft weak players that lose more 50/50s than statistically possible. I say it every match but until we start to prioritise signing players with fight and aggression we are going to struggle in physical matches.
