Real Madrid (A) Post Match Thread

[Tangled up in blue.]

That was peak Joe he faded badly at the end. Were stuck with Eddie unfortunately. I'd even say De Gea in nets we don't lose that game.

The dippers wouldn't have collapse at the end like we did

Don’t think I’ll watch it
That toothy creepy **** punching his chest is enough to make you vomit

Hope Benzema stuffs them

Did really well in the CL but fucked the game management up in the last ten mins.

Let's not overreact. Im embarrassed as anyone but we played a really good game over 2 legs other than that.

Not sure Sterling has a future with us anymore or that he was ever really good enough. We've been short on the wing since Sane left.

Need 2 strikers not 1 and need a replacement for Dino.
We're good other than that.

Let's hope we can go on and win the league now.

Happy with that defence!?

 

[blue whippet]

Indeed and let’s not forget midfield and defence, the latter being where we lost it tonight! Defence particularly seems to be a bigger issue for us, as we are scoring goals!

Do you not think the lack of concentration and game management was a team effort?

 

[iwasthere1968]

I think I've read sufficient posts now to ask the question .......Is there anyone who posted on the match day thread who said " this games not over yet "
or like me and many others thought it's in the bag well done boys?

 

[Ted_Bovis]

I actually think we will never win this comp.
Or never be allowed to.

Yeah. We shit the bed tonight but some of those decisions were bullshit. I’m livid as we all are and losing the way we did was pathetic. However…


Anyone see Modric giving the ref a high-five when RM won a free kick they shouldn’t. Modric also told the Ref to wave away a decision in our favour.

Happened a few times. We kicked the ball out of play when they had a player down. Stopped our attack.

The other way round Foden was down, ref told to play on and ignored him.

We don’t dive much and generally don’t really cheat too much and this is the ‘fine margins’ the media talk ankitbb

BT wankathon in full flow didn’t make the game more pleasant to watch. Actually aggravated me more than the actual game listening to the fucking gloating.

I don’t care about the comp all but clearly for the club it’s a must.

Lots of emotion on here tonight, I've spent time reading lots of comments whilst calming down myself.

Worth remembering in 2 seasons we've got to a Champions League final, a Champions League semi final, won the hardest league league title in the world and are 4 games away from defending that title.... WITHOUT a recognised centre forward.

Get the big Norwegian fella in for next season, complete the puzzle, and we will smash the f**King lot. Up the blues.

 

[Kazzydeyna]

I am now of the opinion that Haaland alone is not enough.

Haaland and Alvarez are a start. If we want to win the big one and see out the league more easily we could do a lot worse than offer united 30m for Ronaldo and give him Whatever wages he wants for two or three years. The best player of the last 30 years was lined up for us in the summer and we turned him down. Criminal

Stupidest thing I’ve ever read on BM and that’s saying something

Well it’s not Pep. I can help you with that.

[deano ou812]

All these CL exits always feel the same don't they? It's never fairly beaten, it's always "we fucked that up didn't we?".

Well that’s the case for the majority of them,our fuck ups and naivety cost us ..

 

[bluewatch007]

Last 2 away performances in Europe have been awful. Never thought I’d question the teams mentality but we were off from the start.

Athletico was a bad performance, really?
and tonight we’re winning until 90 and no shot on target against. Give your head a wobble we were unlucky simple as that

 

[paulchapo]

The dipper wouldn't have collapse at the end like we did

Possibly not but they've done the same to PSG and Chelsea, the latter who are known to be strong defensively.

 

[chaddblue]

Hope Benzema stuffs them

If he plays like he did tonight he won’t touch the ball

 

[west didsblue]

Khm, khm,...,Spurs at home, losing a game in that way has prepared me for this crap tonight. Although i could not believe it could actually happen. The dippers at home, but even before, losing to Spurs after having 143 shots on goal ...Southampton x 2, Crystal Palace x 2, do you see the pattern? Every time it was made hard for us, we obligingly folded up. I understand people here want to put on a brave face, but for me it is not about losing a game, it is about the manner of losing it.

You have a point. In similar situations under Mancini we always felt there was a chance we’d turn it round. With Pep it seems like we need to win it early doors or not at all in the biggest games.

 

[Manx Blue]

He does make those saves - did tonight to stop Rodrygo getting a hat trick in normal time. I think he’s weaker at judging crosses and dominating the box, but he’s still a world class keeper.Though tonight he added to the last minute panic by kicking long - that’s on all of them, a collective brain freeze.

Ederson isn't making world class saves, because the team in front of him generally works their asses off.

Reals first shot on target was their first goal. (Not getting at you BTW Zin).

 

[eyalluvitt]

not beating Liverpool in the league, when they were there for taking. it might cost us the whole PL title.

not beating Real at home by 3-4 goals difference, when they were there for taking.

being 1-0 up at 89th minute in Bernabeu and crashing out of CL with 3-1 minutes later.

there is an issue here.

also 46th minute goal from Pool in league, also today second half first few seconds they create a huge chance, we were still asleep and in the dressing room.

It’s elite football, the opposition will create chances, it’s just they don’t need many to make us suffer, again and again.

 

[paulchapo]

Stupidest thing I’ve ever read on BM and that’s saying something

I couldn't give a fuck what you think.

 

[Bigga]

United in grief, you and me. We may disagree about literally everything else but you are spot on here.

I don't 'grieve' in these games. I stopped feeling that emotion after the Spuds game. This is UEFA, so we get fucked one way or another.

I feel annoyed, then disappointed for about 15 mins and then move on.

If you've seen us at the bottom, anything else is a bonus.

 

[SidJames]

Sigh... don't have enough mental strength for this.

4 games left, atleast win the league, show some fucking ability to bounce back.

This VV

we have already gifted Liverpool a clear run on both the FA Cup, and Champions League after tonight capitulation.

We simply have to win the Premier League.

Got to pick ourselves up.

Or not only will every fucker be wanking them selves silly over Liverpool Quarduple.

Everyone will be taking the piss on our epic end of season Bottle Job.
