Real Madrid (A) Post Match Thread

In a nutshell.
Hopefully Alvarez and Haaland will sort the non scoring out.
Hopefully. But we did score 5 in a CL semi - that really should be enough, even if we should have had eight. But we let in three in each leg, and you're not going to win many matches from there...
 
Game management skills of an under 8’s team. Pep has to take most of that. It’s almost laughable that a side like ours can’t close a game off with 5 mins left and 2 goals up.
I can’t understand why they couldn’t do that. We’ve done it before by taking the ball into the corner and running the clock down. The derby at home a couple of years ago springs to mind.

It was naive at best for a team with experience of big games for their club and country.
 
All problems won't be solved with just getting Haaland. Can't put it all on him to solve other players allergic to scoring.

Nor will it solve a goalkeeper that cant save.
Of course I understand that, personally though I just want to see the evolution of our football. Seen us win enough over the last 10 years that although a trophy less season would be painful I’d soon get over it knowing we start next season with that beast up top.
 
91 other clubs would swap places for our set-up in a heartbeat.

If you want certainty in football, then people need to find another hobby?

It's shocking, but hardly devastating, we lost in a European Cup semi-final away to Real Madrid.

First World problems.

Pep and the Club have worked wonders and a Fourth Premier League title in five seasons would be nothing short of phenomenal.

A lot of people are jumping the shark. We won't get better than Pep, unless we want to try and fluke a Roberto De Matteo for 12 months?

I have sensed with this competition that quite a few people now want to to win it just to shut up our detractors, but those critics will still be there, regardless.

The only thing we as fans need to concern ourselves with, is making sure we are right behind the lads over this next week and drag them over the line.
On the money as always
Main trying for me is we have some obvious issues that need to be fixed this summer if we want to maintain the levels we have set
Centre forward hopefully haaland
Right back to cover walker. We should move heaven and earth for Reece James- he is perfect for that role
Possible left back (maybe not if a right back comes in
Defensive midfielder - no idea who

feels like we’ve just run a bit in empty recently
Need to get it back and go on one last run for four games
 
Did last night happen? Footy can be cruel at times. I think it’s safe to say we are devastated with the result. It’s a another hard and painful lesson. Our team lack the know how to win this competition. The naivety from experienced players was shocking. This squad when up against it shy away. Pep is the reason why we are so good as a team but individual strength is lacking in the biggest occasions.

Time to bring in a few Egotistical players. Nice guys only finish last.
Thing is the players know this from the Athletico game so what happened last night!
 
I can't help but think we are too 'nice' as a club, and as a team. We maybe need to sign two or three absolute cnuts, after the style of Rudiger. Even our fans are too nice. Our people with responsibility for defending the club's reputation from libel definitely are.
We have our fair share of twats that follow this football club. If that's the opposite of being 'too nice', then give me nice every time
 
Come on mate, "Sack Pep" have a strong coffee, dust yourself down & tell the world to PISS OFF but dont even think about sacking Pep, he is the main reason we are where we are & we need to get behind him & the club now they need us more than ever.
I know its just how i feel right now. Im sulking. Like never before

2-0 up with 2 mins to go!!!!

Agree with that but theres no way the club will get all that this summer.

Players will likely leave too and those spots will be unfilled.
 
Cancelo is a fucking liability at right back. What the fuck was he thinking for both of those goals?? That pass out of the back for the second was a joke tbh.

The Scouse rats will beat that Madrid team with ease with the amount of chances they cough up and I can't help but think that last nights shitshow could yet cost us the league as well.

Typical city alive and well
 
Sacking the manager is a bit of an over reaction but I do know where you’re coming from and I agree with most of it.

Managers have been sacked for a lot less though and I don’t think it’s healthy that Guardiola is held up as a kind of god by the club and fans who is beyond criticism.
Managers have been sacked for a lot less than being top of the league with four games remaining and losing 6-5 in the semi final of the Champions League semi final to Real Madrid? Who?
