Real Madrid (A) Post Match Thread

This result will haunt all our club, our players and manager for years.

We lost to a shockingly average Madrid despite leading 5-3 in the 90th minute. The players froze, the substitutions robbed us of any cutting edge. Once Madrid made it 5-5 we were absolutely gone. All extra time did was make sure Liverpool win the league.

We were absolutely beaten before extra time.

One more thing Laporte has to go, every single big champions league tie he plays he has a stinker. Spurs in 2019, Lyon 2020 now Madrid 2022.

There’s a great chance Liverpool won the quadruple. We’ll be utterly ruined playing the next 3, they have to beat Chelsea and an average Real to win the quadruple.

This season will go down as one of the biggest disappointments we’ve had in years. Not because we haven’t played well, we have in large spells but we’ll end up with nothing because we’ve managed to get to a stage where we can play well and not win.
 
Difference at the top is being clinical. Over two legs no one can tell me Madrid are a far superior side to us, but the difference is they have a world class CF who scores big goals at important times. Pep will get slaughtered in the press, but we had enough chances in the first leg to beat these easily we didn't and was punished.
Imagine if we had a CF who did the same?
On to next year as far as this trophy's concerned.
 
We have been short in squad depth all season and tonight when walker has to come off you knew even after we scored they will get a chance ? Left back, both first team starter and cover ? Right back cover for walker ? 2 strikers to score the goals that kill the game off.

We have to give pep a starting eleven in the summer, get the players in and players outs and then go full on next season, enough messing about with cover players and the truth is that is what killed us tonight.

Am not hurting tonight, proud of the lads and pep the fans out there
yes, we could have done better ? yes, we got rolled over at the end that should have never happened.
But the dark arts in extra time is also missing from this city squad ? Kill the game off slow it down fake injuries just get the ball down in the corners,

PS

I will say one thing, if this pain does not make the city players want the Premier League title even more, then nothing else will,
we whacked out 100 million on a player in an area we are already overloaded. Then proceeded into the season without our main target a centre forward. And in them decisions the season will be defined. If we don't win the league the people behind them decisions should hang their heads in shame.
