You watch the scousers and that VVD kind of just sits back and is fast enough to deal with counter attacks. Surely it can't be that hard for Pep to tweak it and stop it happening, well most of the time.

Okay uefa shill, you're the boss. We'll take it on the chin.actually 106 is very low for a c1 match , especially with a 70% possession. This shows u had a very few high intensity runs wich proves ur team was just tired mentally and physically, when lyon rested for 1month then trained for 2. 115 is just a good stat for a defensive team, watch the km of all c1 games...Callin dopin on a french team, ok why not, but we re not spain with dr fuentes lab full of reals and barcas blood preoxyginated, or italy and germany with their magic potions. You were out of shape , and lyon was training for this very day since june.

I'm more annoyed that we don't take our chances, than worrying about our defence, if we did the business from the chances we create, we'd 49/50 matches, and that infuriates me most, but we can still improve the defending too.You watch the scousers and that VVD kind of just sits back and is fast enough to deal with counter attacks.

It is incredible how many we miss, the Sterling chance was beyond belief, like his miss at Burnley that time.

We didn't take our chances because we were exhausted from being up against a drug enhanced side all match. It takes it's toll and is dangerous to our players . This is how uefa and its cohorts reeks their revenge.I'm more annoyed that we don't take our chances, than worrying about our defence, if we did the business from the chances we create, we'd 49/50 matches, and that infuriates me most, but we can still improve the defending too.

We needed a Vardy on the end of those chances last night. Someone who knows how to finish properly. Its finding one that's available at the right price thats the problem.Raz has good as he's been this season is not a natural finisher, never has been.
Agreed but our CB have little or no pace, major problem and a strange decision to play a high line with the players available.You watch the scousers and that VVD kind of just sits back and is fast enough to deal with counter attacks.
