At the time I felt like Walker was getting across him and can just whack that away, haven't watched it back yet but at the time thats what it looked like.https://streamja.com/o63N
Gundogan not involved, but Rodri was a bit lazy/switched off for their goal. You can see from receiving the ball from Mahrez, Rodri plays a pretty lazy pass to Ota who is immediately under pressure.
Ota's touch isnt great, and neither is his return pass to Rodri, but Rodri controls and then plays a horrid square ball back to an out of position Ota. Then it all unravels. Walker should have put a stronger foot in but he's not the chief culprit here, Rodri is.
No, it was a poor pass from Otamendi which resulted in a mistake from Rodders. Gundog was somewhere in the centre circle when it was falling apart. Starts at 2:25
Yep. Far too much power on Ota's pass for Rodri to control, then Ota stepped out too far to recieve the returning pass. Then Walker should have dealt with it. Otherwise i thought all 3 had a fantastic game.

Pressure was on last night and over the 90 mins he did just fine.
His passing sometimes looks erratic but that’s more down to his style.
I think because some have already made their minds up on him any poor pass gets amplified on here and the critics pile in quicker than they would on others.
He, like everyone else last night more than played his part in a great win.
He completed 89% of his passes, which was fractionally above average for the team last night.
A couple of his challenges were a bit rash but all in all he had another decent game in a very high pressure game. Early doors the whole team seemed to feel the pressure but settled and then largely bossed it.

He was having a joke. ffs lighten up.So a supporter of another team comes in to say congratulations and the first thing you can think of is to be a dick?
I'll probably get banned for saying that but I thought that this forum would have a bit higher standards than posts like yours..
Yes, because reaching the final one year and then winning it the following year was dreadful for the country's coefficient.
As for getting more support why would anyone bother if this is what it leads to?
I tried to be gracious and say congratulations and two of you decided to jump on that and use it as an opportunity to try and insult or degrade me/my post.
Given I'll be banned for telling the poster from the quote above that he's being a dick I'll not have the chance but if I didn't get banned why would I come in here again to say well done about a result if all I would get in response is abuse?
Slag off everyone if you want but if that's the standards you hold yourself to then you're both letting the rest of the decent supporters in here down by lowering yourselves to the point where you have to react negatively and go on the attack when a fan from another Club tries to be nice in a post.

Yeah he did, what a fucking bell end he really is.. Not surprised though!
I initially thought it was Phil Thompson - same annoying accent - but he was totally bitter and a poor "neutral" commentator.

Plus, because Benj is seen as being the weak link in possession then the opposition double up and press him rapid style the second the ball goes out to him, which makes it doubly difficult for him.He completed 89% of his passes, which was fractionally above average for the team last night.

That said, sometimes his touch and weight of pass is absolutely appalling, and consequently you can see quite often that players don’t want to pass to him, very noticeable that Kev ignores him quite regularly.

Given was the best keeper we’ve had in my lifetime I reckon, maybe Schmeichel but he was only for one year and is a Rag ****.
