RB Leipzig (A) - Post-match Thread

[chaddblue]

What should have been a stroll around training session turned into a mini disaster

bad night from everybody but Walker and Pep have had a ‘mare

 

[JRockBlues]

Just too many players that couldn't be arsed tonight along with the manager also. Obviously no crowd didn't help when there was nothing on the result but would've thought we could put on a better showing than that. Walker's red was just idiotic but Pep also to blame for keeping him on. Should've been subbed at half-time along with Gundogan as you could see their levels had dropped enormously from the norm. No point in taking the kids if you're only going to give 1 of them 5 minutes. Will do wonders for McAtee's decision of whether to sign a new contract or not when he can't get minutes in a dead rubber with so many on the pitch not giving anything.

What’s the worst case with Walker?

He thinks he’s a role model……

 

[LesBleuMiserable]

Anybody going to give Leipzig any credit or is just a slagfest of Pep and the players

They were meh

 

[phargrave]

What a bunch of fannies.

Is that the post match thread you’re referring to?

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

You’re just upset because you can’t get your 100 likes tonight :-)

I was just thinking how dumb Stones was for picking up a needless yellow and the Kyle decides to one up him.

They do share a birthday.

We have been getting some results recently despite being short of players at time so a dodgy performance was probably due and best in this game rather than on Saturday. Lets hope that it is out of our system and normal service is resumed against Wolves.

 

[SWPISHOME]

Anybody who gives a tin shit about that result is an idiot.

Disappointing to lose Walker for the last 16. Grealish needs to play his way into some form. Fernandinho is on his last legs. Kev played.

good game time for lads who needed it. That’s it.

Can Kyle miss both games of the last 16?
More pissed off over that than anything. I'd understand if we were on the verge of being eliminated and he lost the head but not what he done tonight it's mind boggling.

With all due respect mate that’s absolute horseshit.
As I replied to your similar statement in the match thread, slack attitudes and complacency of the sort on display tonight can easily bleed into league performances and more important games if not addressed.
We have seen this before. This team are brilliant but they can also be a bit flaky and lazy if they can get away with it.
Gundo and Walker shouldn’t have even been on the plane. One looks to have suddenly hit the red wall of burnout and the other could possibly miss our next three CL games, should we make it that far.
Meanwhile, generational young lads we are trying to convince about a pathway and to sign new contracts can’t even get on the pitch in a dead rubber. Pathetic.
Certainly couldn’t blame James McAtee for at least considering his future when he can’t even get a second of action despite his elders and betters being frankly dogshit.
You’re normally a very decent poster who I have long had a lot of time for but I think you’ve got this one wrong tbh

I don't think Pep rates these kids enough, very very disappointing from him tonight and he'll probably get slated for it
