Real Madrid (A) Post Match Thread

Fine margins again, their flukey pen at the Etihad was crucial.
Also I’ve not yet seen their pen award tonight properly analysed?

Unfortunately, It looked a pen to me - couple of angles it looked 50/50 but two of the angles it’s looked like Dias got nothing off the ball… shouldn’t have even got to that stage

I remember when I first started watching us in European football. The slightest touch on an opponent would result in a free kick or even a booking and its been like that ever since.
Casemiro was a fucking disgrace tonight. And the ref gave us nothing.

Have you seen Cole Palmer if late? Clearly not I suspect!

Your bluemoon name speaks volumes.

Taking Jesus off was a big mistake he was stopping them from bringing the ball out from the back.

It was generally coming all season most times, bar the goal v Luton which had a bit of drama, hardly horrific.

Missing the point in what I was saying but yeah ok? If it makes you feel better being relegated was absolutely amazing?

I’d rather Putin win WW3 than those bus bricking vermin win anything, ever.

Thanks - that made me laugh :)

The answer is playing our academy players more. There was no reason why we couldn’t give them more games. If we intend to operate with just 17 senior outfield players then there’s simply no excuse for our aversion to using the kids. They should have played more earlier in the season so that our big hitters arrive to this point in better shape.

There’s definitely something in this. We win so many games at a canter in the league that we should be doing more of this

Sterling wasn't great and it is probably time to move him on but he wasn't the reason why we got knocked out

No....but he's a seasoned pro, respected international, and whether starting or a sub, you expect a bit of desire, impetus, and someone who wants to grab the game to show everyone he is that good.

Absolute choke from the players but Pep should take a lot of the blame! He won't make a f@cking sub in league games (or FA cup semis) but makes 4 in last 20 mins tonight? Absolutely no need to take off Jesus or Mahrez, left us short up front and opened up our flanks, he just can't help tinkering!

Come on man.. it was not Peps fault. We were the only ones that looked like scoring another until we bottled it. Even the anti city BT commentators said at about 88 mins how much better our subs were.. and how it was all over and then we threw it away collectively. And I mean the players not Pep.

We shat the bed in the most spectacular fashion.

Oh ffs stop moaning. Paris is a shithole and it’s saved me a fortune. Let’s just kick shit out of the dippers
