Lyon CL QF Post-Match Thread

The second goal shouldn't have counted right? Clipped the Lyon guys foot. Sorry a bit short. In a pub no access to replys
No I think it was a good decision. Laporte who was poor all night ran accross and tripped over the attackers leg. The conspiracy theorists will no doubt make hay in the days ahead but yet again it was schoolyard defending and poor finishing that done us in yet again. Will Pep get another chance to get eliminated at the QF stage maybe not.
 
Again, I've been told I just want "shiny new toys" since the start of this season I've complained about the balance of the squad. "Look what we achieved last season".
Bravo reactions have gone
Nico reactions have gone, too slow, too rash.
Stones injuries and confidence issues
Ferna lost a yard, played out of position
Cancelo whats the point? Another player to fill left back awkwardly.
Garcia why develop him for barca
Zinchenko lovely lad, not a lb, not better than Foden, kdb, d.silva, b.silva.
Mendy hopefully next season hes back to it.
Gundogan doesn't suit our play, not a cdm.
Mahrez slows us down, brief glimpses of brilliance but goes missing way too much.

Add to that David, ferna and kun either leaving or 1 season left.

Sell what we can,
let Steffan challenge eddie
Let couto challenge walker
Koulibaly tosin thb
Laporte ake
Mendy (new lb)
Rodri Douglas Luiz
Kdb foden
B.silva aouer
Sterling braaf
Torres M. Thuram
Jesus kun (isak/haaland)

Today was crazy, trying 352/361 in a 1 leg knockout game when not used to it. Leon have a mobile, youthful midfield and we play garcia, ferna, rodri, gundogan and shunt kev out on the wing.

We need 2 solid transfer windows and re balance this squad and develop a plan b.
 
The French TV are battering Pep and rightly deserved. He left 4 great attacking players on the bench for fear of an inferior team.
 
The squad isnt as good as people think. .

Its ageing and too slow.

I dont think 5 players will bridge the gap to win the champs league.

Especially with the playeds we're apparently linked to.
 
Walton said it shou!dnt have stood and he never back us
Shouldn’t have come to that though should it? We shouldn’t be relying on 50/50 refereeing decisions to save us. The touch on Laporte was so slight that it wasn’t clear and obvious so I can’t blame VAR for that.
The only person to blame for this result is Pep.
Even if it was disallowed we still lost 2-1.
 
Our strength is our attack 102 goals in the premier. So why drop our attacking players against a team 7th in the french league ? I know I keep repeating myself but I just dont get it. Just bloody attack why 3 defensive midfielders ....time for bed if i can sleep so angry with that team selection today
