[the gambler]

What's he supposed to do? What do you suggest, we're being outplayed by a better team, with better tactics, with better players, who are heading towards playing like Barcelona? With all respect, he can make every change we want, and change his tactics and try to encourage more urgency, but there's very little he can do if the opposition is simply just better. He can expect more than this sloppiness we're seeing at times, but there's very little he can do.

sub one of the strikers and put a midfielder? that's what most managers would do ...

doesn't mean it will turn the game, but it's the sensible thing to do.

Why would you take a striker off? we need a goal, unless you want to set up the the bus and just go for a 1-0 loss. Another midfielder will not help us keep possession or get it back.

Well, it might

dzeko off at half, hasn't got in the game at all, not his fault but he's the one to go

why not navas?

because he can help in mid and on the wings you fuckhead

 

[Robinho's Subbuteo]

This ref is an utter disgrace.

 

[Benarbia]

Haha people going on like we're playing a team of superheroes. A blind man can see we need another body in midfield

So we should bring on 2 more then and play with 4 strikers right? If we don't get the ball how many strikers on the pitch is irrelevant. We need to get more of the ball to calm everyone down. Give the defenders a break.

If Pellegrini doesn't make any kind of change soon I will seriously wonder wtf is going on.

ITS FUCKING BAYERNNNNN!!!!!!! for the love of god no coach can do anything if the team/players are the much superior to us.

COACH should star with SILVA not NAVAS like i was saying all this time. And counter Bayern by possession, but noo
Lets play Navas from the wing.
ANd how many times did this winger do what wingers supposed to do ????
All the game he created 1 big shit.
Silva would have at least create something.

 

[kupest]

We could do with 5 subs for the game really.

 

[Braggster]

Pellegrini has to look at himself here IMO. It's one thing to have a philosophy but madness to play two strikers in this situation IMO. Simply poor management. Especially as Dzeko is poor at holding it up!

 

[RandomJ]

I thought the dutch were supposed to hate the Germans this ref is a closet Bayern fan.

 

[burning blue soul]

for the first time ever, its more bearable on here than actually watching the game. pelli, change the formation ffs!!!!
