Did Pep ask whether City are allowed two keepers in the 2nd leg given they had 2 in the first leg? Not a bad save that from Henrich.

Haaland was the one.

Haaland was a Txiki signing. Pep wanted Kane.

trouble is that even though you are right they. are a much better team, there were clear opportunites where all our midfielders had the option to put a ball in behind the defence and they dont do it.....Pep even mentioned this in an around about way in his post match comments saying something like that "Mahrez and Grealsih and Gundo make the extra pass" - well they are doing it far far too often and its becoming a very bad habit - no one is taking risks anymore....at least Sterling use to try and take a risk or take someone on,,,,no one is doing that from anywhere

We have taken risks and got really punished.

Yes agreed, he went wide to Jack tonight when Erling was screaming for it. Why ?

People keep on saying it’s Pep, but what can he do when the buildup gets the players in these positions and they simply refuse to make the obvious pass? He only attempts to pass it through to him when it’s too late or he literally can’t do anything else, and it breaks down. I don’t understand it.

Sadly, something tells me that we're not winning UCL this year...

Doesn't really matter as for medium to long term Haaland will be the better bet. I don't think would Kane would of gone past Gvardiol for that chance.

Fuck me that was some walk back to the hotel just got back need a nebuliser

Performance doesn't matter away from home (icing on the cake if it was).

Madrid's performance the other night mattered, it sent a statement of their intention to win the CL and their ability to do it.

Kane lol. He would stuggle and he would of been part of our injuries this season if that was the case.

Kane would be quality...for all those who believe we are better with a false number 9 - kane is perfect. Quick Edit - I think Haaland is better - the moment pep reminds players you can pass forwards.
