RB Leipzig (A) - Post-match Thread

Let’s hope that Grealish isn’t our Rodney Marsh.

Marsh was better than him.....you can't judge Grealish on this season though, he needs to learn Pep's way of playing and was bought for next season.

 

[Inter Me Nan]

Judging by the number of trophies we’ve won & records we’ve broken - I’d say he definitely gets us & you don’t deserve a club like City. Go & support another club - you won’t be missed

I will, gonna get my Chelsea shirt back out of the cupboard.

Doesn't matter - a nothing game.

Several things about the game though - the ref and his team were a disgrace, in fact his reluctance to punish any one of their team led to frustrations and ultimately Walker losing his marbles. Our players were booked for taking a free kick quickly, asking for a pen and yet they had several players who committed six or seven fouls without punishment. And, don't get me started on the stonewall pen missed.

Ferna God bless him is in the last stages of a wonderful career, we look so vulnerable from simple punts down the middle without Rodri and his passing was too slow.

Ake needs to work on his headed clearances, every one went straight to them and a bad one led to losing possession for the first goal. He still doesn't convince me at all.

Pep should have introduced the kids at halftime - clear to see some were going through the motions and it would have been nice given we want the best of our academy to sign long deals at the moment. Not smart in my book.

Glad we don't have to see them again - in both games they have thrown themselves about adding screams when touched and seem a horrid bunch.

As I say though a nothing game, at least we got mins in Kev's engine.

Onto the next and just glad we gave Bernardo and Rodri a break.

Poor stuff. Over/under hit long balls. Constantly offside. Hitting first man. Walker sees his arse. Zach the only decent game.
A few of our players are desperate to find form, DeB, Grealish and to a lesser extent Foden. Was delighted to see them in the starting lineup, but they were so poor, which was the biggest dissapointment of all.

It's getting worse every match. People were moaning last game as well. It's also some pretty decent posters who have the "told you so" attitude.

Pathetic mate. I've to stay away now to avoid getting banned, decided it's not worth it.

Anyway up the blues.

 

[Scaring Europe to Death]

Well apart from the £130 that I lost on the flights, the bizarre selection, the appalling refereeing, and an utterly brain-dead challenge from Walker, I quite enjoyed that.

Zinchenko was very good tonight.. completely disappointed from Grealish... I would like to see the young lads taking time ,Walker made the mistake of the season, I hope this would cost just a little in next round....

A game of opinions eh.

I thought Zinchenko was his usual negative shit with an odd moment of positivity. Grealish did okay considering no fucker was creating any space whatsoever when we attacked.

 

[SidJames]

Starting XI was absolutely ridiculous. Walker, Gundogan, Foden and Grealish should have been nowhere near that side.

I am still not convinced of Greallish potential.

Obviously he will get time to adapt to our play.

But seriously wtf does he do ?

Everything he does feels lazy and half arsed, like when he licks the Ball from 5 yards out

I feel like he has signed for us, and thinks "i have made the Big time".

I am not reading about his football in the papers, but who he shagged last week, who he is shagging this week, his personal life, and Love Island.

 

[Octavian]

What’s the worst case with Walker?

 

[Semper aggressus]

Well that was a shit waste of time.

Silly from Walker though, could do with him in the next round.

No injuries hopefully.

Now fucking play properly against Wolves!
