[PistonBlue]

Spineless, and not for the first time this season

 

[Dax777]

Come on, we all know who it is. One swallow doesn't make a summer and all that!

Savio?

 

[Wanchope n me Dickov]

Thank god we didn’t draw Bodo. Would have been 6!

 

[Blue and still suffering]

Completely embarrassing performance and result. Absolute shocker and lucky not to lose by more.

That line up was just totally wrong.

Some absolutely wank performances too.

As for our set pieces…..Jesus Christ.

Stunning from Valverde though. 10/10

Valverde was the difference between the two sides.

 

[kevreeves]

Cheers Pep, worst formation since Stevie Wonder and Ray Charles were guest pilots with the Red Arrows!

 

[Doc_Testosterone]

Do you drive a DeLorean?

Yes and news flash….Pep will be gone soon.

 

[eyalluvitt]

Madness selection.

Marmoush was on the night boat to Cairo

 

[ysmsa]

Who shouldn't be near the club that he played?

I'll bite. Savinho!

I wasn't fooled by that on Saturday, a good half hour doesn't warrant a start at Madrid

Played with 10 first half and were over run. Despite that Doku laid 3 on and weren't taken.

The rest of it, fucking mad to change formation just for fucking VJ.

All someone had to do was call him a mard arse **** first minute, showed his metal with the penalty!

 

[deano ou812]

Too many of these performances now they seem to pop up every so often,we would have had an odd one in the past but it’s becoming the norm..

 

[SWPISHOME]

Pep being clever was working for 10 minutes, then we got exposed. Nobody knew what they were supposed to be doing after O'Reilly got caught out.

O'Reilly hasn't played full back for months, Nunes has been unplayable and he was benched, Marmoush scores two last weekend and also benched...

Savinho definitely has something over Pep, don't know if he has loads of sex tapes or what but when he's available he always plays even though he was out injured for months.

Pep substitutions are absolutely bizarre. I genuinely I can't believe what I've just seen.

 

[Wanchope n me Dickov]

Another bus park borefest at our place next week.

 

[johnny crossan]

Are you. All I said was the big players need to turn up on the big occasions.
You need to get a grip, that was fucking wank.

your grip on reality is loosening lee, nobody is arguing with you but coarse statements of the obvious add nothing to the debate.

 

[Palerider]

Totally unbalanced. The line up would possibly have worked against a non league side at home in the cup but away against the 15 times CL winners it was bordering on stupidity. Four forwards, two relatively slow players in midfield and two makeshift full backs. I thought the players tried but the tactics and team selection were utterly abysmal. It was like they set us an ambush and we just walked right into it.

 

[Enzo's Mascara]

It’s a bit more than that, the fall off in quality is unreal. The Dutch Ghost, Sav etc, no fight, poor press. Tactics played a part but it’s a wider issue.

The Dutch Ghost lol

 

[Metal Biker]

Yes and news flash….Pep will be gone soon.

To be replaced by...?

 

[cupsforcockups]

Bayern had the bollocks we dont

 

[Cityinmyheart]

Only Ancelotti has won more

Speaking about recent history not ancient history.

 

[Rammy Blue]

Ah ok. So not all on Pep then? Got you.

Yawn

 

[DenisLawBackHeel74]

Needs to be a second leg masterclass after that truly humbling experience. For all those rival fans who have been wondering whether pep could be as successful with lower quality players………you have your answer.

I think he just loves to tinker and when he gets it right he’s a genius…..but fuck me when it’s wrong….

Anyway blues nobody died, so let’s see what the weekend brings …….3points hopefully

 

[bellsouth]

We will win the Champions League…..in the first season after Pep leaves.
