Real Madrid (A) | CL | Post Match Thread

Madrid are a sly side when it comes to refs - a lot of distraction goes on at their place. Rudiger has fouled Haaland in exactly the same way in several games - no pens ever given. Good decision to give the pen for once. For me, the Trossard ref had an especially crap game. No doubt Madrid fans are moaning that he was biased against them. I've seen plenty of UEFA refs biased against us, but I just think the Trossard ref was crap and easily conned.
We all know that the refs must all be pro RM in the same way balón d'Or winners must come from RM .
Just some of the rights that entitlement brings.
 
That article is 100% accurate depicting the last night game and more broadly, the issues we've been having this season. If the opposing team hits certain level of intensity and aggression our game control literally goes out of window. I've re-watched the game this afternoon and I downgraded our performance 15-20% than I thought of it last night. When pushed, this team just doesn't have the MF. Basically the repeat of Arsenal game, but we scored two goals and didn't concede late equalizer.
And the article makes some positive pointe in the end, if all of The Guardian articles are like this one, I would resume reading their football section.
Not only is this post wrong about the lack of mentality, it is downright insulting. But if you will read the Graun……

Not sure if anyone has yet mentioned this - but you can see it on the photo. We were in the lower tier (on the photo - if you look at the yellow/orange square just below the Poznan Blues flag and then look at the three rows to the left in the middle on the lower tier) and in front of us, to our right were three rows of tourists who were not City fans - and they remained on their arses the entire game - right in the middle of the away end.

According to the lads in front of us - they all had digital tickets - not paper like everyone else - and when we locked in at the end - they all managed to slip out. It nearly kicked off - but thankfully, calm heads prevailed - but, honestly...WTF???
 
I see Pep said if we play like that we won’t go far in the CL. He then said at the minute we aren’t CL contenders.

You gona tell him to piss off?

Didn’t think my view was unfair? Which bit didn’t you like?
We KNOW, we all watched it, but we got the result, can't we just enjoy it for once? We're not picking the team, we can't affect that.

Shut up you soft arse. If me saying - I’ll take a 2-1 win but our team of old probably would have scored more - stopped you from enjoying it ‘for once’, whatever that means, then this forums not for you. Jog on.
 
Not sure what I make of him, to be honest. To, seemingly, not have an issue getting tickets, he must have a mountain of points built up.

He has some good clear footage of our goals when he’s at the games which I like.
….But he does have a lot of close ups of him eating and drinking which I struggle with.

Seems like a nice guy though.
