No way we could carry on unbeaten since Newcastle until the end of season so let this be the one L

Trust in pep they said

Give delph a chance they said

Totally predictable

Best 2 players on in the 88th minute

Still Winnable.

As long as we dont get a ref from Madrid for the second leg.

Poor again, just like Brighton
No creativity and sloppy passing

If this means we win all our remaining games then I'm happy.

Law of averages says we had to lose one eventually!

Pep had a complete brain fart tonight.

I'm genuinely stunned by how bad Walker was. Literally everything he did was bad and/or a complete fuck up. He seems like his head isn't right at all.

Gundogan caused us a lot of issues by hiding when the centre backs had the ball, and when he did receive it he kept making a safe layoff, often backwards. which Laporte absolutely bollocked him for at one point. It was very reminiscent of his Anfield outings last season.

Even though he only played a short amount of time Jesus' offsides were infuriating. The worst was when De Bruyne was running through and he ran offside so quickly forcing Kev to play the harder ball to Sane.

Overall I thought we missed the extra quality of Bernardo and De Bruyne.

Apart from the pen did Lloris have to make a save?

That team selection reeked of arrogance. Like we could play some of the second string away in a Champs League quarter final and still piss it. Pep got it badly wrong. If we were serious about that game we would have shown Spuds respect and played our strongest team.

Complete fuck up by Pep. Luckily we have a leg left to turn it around.

Two seasons on the trot hes done it. Shit selection compounded by his fucking ridiculous introduction of sane and debruyne at 88 mins.
