Real Madrid (A) Post Match Thread

[chickaroon]

could change the club and the psyche of this team so disastrous was that result.

what were we doing at 0-1 with 2/3 minutes to go? piling forward, not keeping it in the corner. cancelo playing a cross in with 89 mins on the clock.

even at 1-1 someone go down, make a foul, anything to stop the game.

I am glad you mentioned the cross from Cancelo. Straight into the keepers hands. It felt like a pivotal moment to me. Turned out to be. So upset by this result.

To shore up our defense. It was a smart move. He isn’t on the field his subs was there to see the game out and we failed

It worked so well,

 

[Trojan1962]

Did nothing wrong except Gundogan is a busted flush at this point.

Sadly finished at this level way off the pace

 

[PrezIke]

I haven't felt this sick over sport since I can barely remember when.

A true shock of shocks.

The recent mind bogglers in CL, those Spurs and Liverpool matches were up there but is there a worse one in the past decade?

To come so late after we absolutely smashed them can only but logically make us mad.

We all know until Walker had to go off, and more importantly some of the subs that came in for both sides and how that affected the game we looked sure to win.

The missed chances and defending was beyond awful in the end of regular time, but we all know Casemiro staying on is a joke of all jokes with his leg whip.

Finding anyway to win the league is more important than ever and whilst my first reaction was we will bottle that, we have to do it.

Liverpool will smash RM as well because they are more clinical.

Haaland in is the player we all know we're missing.

Time for another drink and urge our fans at home games to think about our place in doing all we can to help us cross the finish line.

Come on CITY!

 

[Txiki Txiki Bang Bang]

Are you still here??? Have our mods gone to sleep like our defence did??

Still here mate, where you looking for me?

 

[Dazzle84]

When you get beat - like the cup semi - it makes you angry but you can move on. When you beat yourselves in a game that's won, fuck off. Walker was a warrior, Bernardo was incredible. Others, step up man - Foden meant to be on of the best kids in the world (which I agree with) well fucking show it then

 

[oddfellows]

And then there was one shit or f*ck all now boys.
Strongest side every game from now on, no excuses

 

[Deleted member 77198]

Agreed, this needs a proper review now.

We keep getting bumped out with stupidity and we can't keep blaming luck.

If Pep doesn't win the CL with us, considering the chances we have had - i am sorry it is a failure.

“Luck”, does…not…exist!

Luck is what the weak minded attach to things in hindsight because they don’t understand or can’t accept that they weren’t good or wise enough to not put themselves in the situation where they think they’ve been unlucky or others lucky.

 

[stan bowles]

Shame Ancelotti didn't stay at Everton

 

[the plasterer]

Nice for us old uns to know that "cityitis" is still here, feared it was gone forever but its 100% still with us

 

[handsofstone]

Presumably on that basis they would have done us even more easily?

Yea probably, you seen our mentality compared to theirs? They thrive in this competition whereas we just fall apart

We tore Real apart for 175 minutes, tbf it's an embarrassment it was even 5-4 on aggregate, couldve been 10-2 if we weren't so God awful at finishing...but to conceded three goals in 7 minutes is laughable

Yes, Liverpool would've likely beaten us in the final (even though we'd outplay them for 80% of the game we'd still lose)

 

[Manx Blue]

Like many seasoned campaigners, i've seen a lot.

The thing is, tonight doesn't hurt.

We had that game in the palm of our hands last week, and we choked. That is where the tie was lost.

Even if we'd have got an extra goal last week, Mahrez scores we're three up with 15 or so to play, Real are done. We don't go forward, we manage the game...it ends.

Anyone who didn't think we'd wobble tonight is foolish. For me...the only suprise is that it took as long as it did.

We're not out of the title yet, but the mangement and players need to get things sorted before the weekend.

I love my club.

Win lose or draw.

All the best to Real.

 

[Franny 1234]

We don't seem to be able to manage the game late on. Play teams at their own game, go down under every challenge, act like a sniper got you, slow the game, stop the game, quieten the crowd anything to make sure you win.

I don't like it but you have to do what's needed to get the job done particularly away from home

If RM were winning 1-0 at the Etihad with a few minutes to go they would not have lost the game.

We did against atletico Madrid

 

[colbee59]

Anything from Pep yet?

Why what did he do wrong[emoji170]

 

[BlueMonkey79]

Think Fernadinho killed us when he came on. Same with Gundo. For me I would have brought Ake on and gone 5 at the back. We are so naive at times. From both the mangers perspective and the players. It's OK to just smash the ball in to the oppositions half every now and then.

 

[Millennium]

1. We have wasted many easy chances to score.
2. Our defence gives them tow unnecessary penalties.
3. Their goalkeeper saved many good chances, while ours unfortunately did not make any save. For the first goal his position was wrong.

 

[eyalluvitt]

Knocked out PSG, Chelsea, City , in the most unbelievable comeback style, watch them shit the bed against the skip rats.

 

[blusull]

the whole of spain are right behind Madrid after that result.If it had been the other way round who in the uk would have been behind us, certainly not our media

 

[jamiecav]

What's pep said?

 

[J.G.Blue.]

Seriously, can we just opt out of this fucking competion next year & save ourselves a lot of trouble.
