Paris Saint-Germain (A) - CL SF | Post-Match Thread

Pep on Mahrez:



Boy it really showed today..He was insane today and our best player on the pitch imo..He had lot of nice plays in the wing apart from goal itself. What a turnaround from February from him..
 
Two keeper mistakes against 10 men ......

Just watched it again. Second half was our most flawless performance ever.

I honestly believe that second half was our best team performance under Pep (and therefore under any modern manager).

It was the first time in a meaningful CL knockout game where a City team played with their usual swagger. It sounds strange to say but I wasn’t even all that nervous - we just looked fully up for it and full of belief.

That comes from the manager.

I’ve given old baldie some stick in previous years after we have limped out tamely, and I know the tie is far from over, but that felt like a ‘united semi final’ moment tonight.

We are blessed by God to have this manager, with these players, and this owner, in this era.

Amazing. Utterly amazing.

After Friday training is finished.
So no more games missed. I am managing a childrens home So they can watch all kinds of shit all week long but when the game is on, the remote is mine and locked in the office once the channel is selected!
There were 3 of us training. We did online shit this morning and with the trainer this afternoon. I asked if we could switch it around so I could have watched the game and done the online training tonight but the trainer couldn't do this morning :(
I am off next Tuesday and weekend of the final (should we make it) so That was a relief.
 
When we relax and play our normal game we give the opposition much more to worry about than they give us. After they scored we had to do just that and as a result won the game. No matter how many times I watch their goal I still get annoyed it was criminal defending, but fair play we turned it around.

The big danger now is thinking the hard work is done, with their forward line it never is. More of the same in the second leg please.

I like your posts normally. But really am struggling to understand this. I know you mean well, But to say "not play so well"...

That second half was the best from any English side in Europe you'll see.

I think the team defended well, kept possession well but offensively I think the team should & can do better.
 
Jenas was a twat tonight. But one of the only things he got right was when Walker beat Neymar on a dead sprint to the ball and casually passed it to Dias. Mrs and I looked at each other and said Walker has been waiting for that moment...
 
PSG have a MUST win at home to Lens on Saturday at 4pm UK time. Lens are no push over, they’ll be fucked by the Tuesday evening.

Don’t give them anything for the first 30mins and we should be good to go.

I said a few days ago I was worried that Chelsea might do our season, and I'm glad the league is all but won. I would be happy if we get it wrapped up at the weekend so we can concentrate on the CL.

Not sure I could live with Chelsea winning both major trophies but I rate their manager.

Whatever happens, they're not going to win both major trophies. Trust me.
 
Hopefully KdB and Foden are going to play with more confidence and play like they were playing before. Had some good scenes obviously, but also a hard night. Hopefully they will dominate from now on.
