Real Madrid (A) Post Match Thread

[Manchester_lalala]

To save me some stress ffs. Don’t get me wrong, I didn’t do anything in my time other than close my eyes and hope, but it was glaringly obvious what was going to happen.

All the City fans at the Bernabeu knew it was over too, everyone was sat down for most of extra time. As soon as that first goal went in we were done. We went from singing Ole’s to Madrids fans going mental.

You replace a couple of players in key position's with players that possess that do or die mentality.
Haaland is a great start.Just need similar in midfield and defence.

Touch more grit in this team would do wonders, prime Zabba or Ferna type.

Tevez,NDJ,even Daid Silva and Aguero.

All were born winners,we need more again.

I am sick and tired of hearing from the media, that we collapsed in this game. Rubbish. Our only mistake on the night, when Madrid decided to play like Burnley, and do nothing but lump balls into the box, is, we failed to stop the crosses at source and maybe we could have made rhe game, more stop, start. We played a beautifully controlled game, culminating in a very good goal. They threw on all of their subs and could still only break us down with crosses.
We have a fantastic team and manager.

I am convinced that every gramme of grit on our part would be penalised and regarded as a foul. Seen it match in and match out. Just look at the rough-housery that Leeds and Liverpool get away with.

Don't blame them tbf, I watched it all but had the same feeling it wasn't meant to be.

You can't blame the players. They will be as gutted as the fans who went and those who could or couldn't watch or listen.

Bravo is a different situation and discussion but he was affected by a poor start that had a lot to do with be left exposed and opponents having relatively easy chances.

Ederson's saves to shots ratio is one of the best in the league. He is not a significant cause of us losing games but he is a significant part of us winning most of the time.

Hopefully you’ve put to bed that daft argument.

So then, we collapsed. We should have been able to withstand four minutes of concerted pressure by them.

Either way, it's done now. I'm sure Pep will have the team rallied for Sunday.

Mate there's a lot to debate but I won't be engaging with you because you're being so obnoxious.

Saying that Grealish is overwhelmed by the big move and in the same breath that Ward Prowse can replace De Bruyne. Ward Prowse is an average PL midfielder with a free kick in him. De Bruyne is the finest of his generation.

You are an embarrassment.

Sometimes I feel like that guy is on some good marching powder!

We failed to do what they did at extra time.
