Monaco - Post Match thread.

[quiet_riot]

...... we aren't gonna win the league or have an amazing season every year,

No one ever said we would, progress is all we want, especially after we've moved hell and earth to get this guy here. I'm all for giving him time, but the fact is that we have not moved forwards at all.

The single positive right this second is Sane, IMHO.

Pep's fault. That is all.

I'm still pissed 30 minutes later. These fucking players didn't show up to play. We need to spend big on our defense. With that being said I thought stones was fantastic

No, we've been spending big on our defence for a few years - we need to spend WISELY on our defence.

Battling for Top 4? So we've progressed not a jot from last year?

We have progressed - we have been much, much better to watch this season

Players too easily knocked off the ball in the 1st half. Monaco had the desire and urgency and came out as if they wanted to win it, we came out as if we could stroll about with a 2 goal lead. KDB nightmare 1st half - needs a rest. Team much better 2nd half but in Europe you have got to be more clinical and take your chances. At least this year we went out giving it a go in the 2nd half. Monaco are a decent team and good to watch, be interesting to see how far they go.
Nb.Any chance we can get their left back for next season.

Considering how poor we were for the majority of the game it took 83 mins before he made 1 change, unbelievable

The first half was a tactical error, simple as that.... we do nothing but praise our so called 'big players' but they let us down at key moments!

Nail on head. Can't do it at this level.

Need to get rid of Aguero. We put so much into attack compromising our defence and we don't score enough. We had a great 2nd half, but drew it 1-1.

Should have gone through. Their free-kick goal was just a gamble that paid off.

Yeh, the midfield and defence were so good weren't they Marv? Seriously, some utter guff in defence and midfield and you blame Kun?

 

[Delphacito]

We weren't really lacking in effort. Tactically speaking, we lost because Dinho couldn't bring the ball up or pass to anyone in the first half.

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

Needed a central defender who can head a ball

He's out on loan at Valencia.
