Lyon (A) - Post Match Thread

Isn’t the first tiebreaker points in head to head matches? We still need at least a draw, right?

Enjoyed that

Thought we would've gone on to win that 2-1 or 3-1 if we didn't make the Delph for Sane substitution, looked like we were about to take the lead until we made that change.

Very impressed with Lyon and credit to their fans who created a brilliant atmosphere.

Quite glad we can't play them in the last 16, they are a useful side. At the same time though not our best night and we really struggled in the middle against two very good CM's.

Yes

There are times when Pep needs to play with a double pivot. After the last game against Lyon where 2 or 3 breaking midfielders passed found Fernandinho Pep failed to adjust and Fernandinho was passed round again. We should have lost by 2 or 3 goals but we didn't mainly thanks to Laporte.
BTW I'm sure Aguero had a purple rinse in his Silver Fox buffon tonight...

Yes

Cheers.

Not at our best but i'll gladly take the point.

Would have taken a draw before the game so certainly would considering how we played. It’s in our own hands to top the group which is all that matters.

Excellent at miscontrolling the ball, getting fairly dispossessed, throwing himself on the floor and getting a free kick? Agree.

Probably one of the most biased, nonsensical comments on Bluemoon!
