Real Madrid post match post mortem

Our squad is knackered and the squad depth is lamentable.

yet the calender and football insist players turn up for pointless international friendlies
weve over two/three seasons played more games than anyteam and players still called up and playing will cost us this season.

Yes it was draining emotionally. It also had an air of inevitability about it once it went to extra time. Madrid were hanging on for penalties and we were out of gas and ideas so we knew deep down it was going there. We also knew if it did we were out. So it proved.

Could have been a real fan holding onto the ball considering the amount of the bastards in the home end.

Loads of Madrid fans around me in the East Stand, but the chances of Modric's hoof onto the North Stand landing in the lap of a Madrid fan must be thousands to one. The club has to sort this out at source - we're infiltrated every time Madrid come here. Obviously touts are set up on our system with massive numbers of so-called 'Friends and Family' on there.

Agree.

Imagine the same occurrence in future if we draw the dippers in the CL. It would be carnage.

I was in EL3 and a tad fucked off with that as well. Why the fuck didnt we have a spare on hand? or do UEFA stipulate only one ball for the PK competition. Anyway I watched in disbelief as Silva single handedly handed the initiative to that lot, at 2-0 in the comp they may have crumbled, instead we did.

The ball collectors handed them in at the end of extra time. So there was only one.

it speaks to something though that people can’t understand a delay harms us.
similar when flares are thrown on the pitch when we score a comeback goal. Has happened at least to my recollection.
 
The better team doesn't always win, real madrid played like they did because it was the only way to beat us. Rodri still undefeated in normal time though I suppose lol, I'm just glad we won it last season atleast we don't have all dick heads saying you'll never win the champions league now.

Hold onto the ball in the stand before the opposition steps up - not our own fecking player!! Unintentionally, some of our fans affected Bernardo. Imagine it - your turn to take a pen, you're physically and mentally knackered but you're still visualising what you're gonna do as you approach the D. You're then left standing there for the thick end of a minute and your concentration goes. Some of our fans effectively helped Madrid..... albeit unintentionally. For all we know, Bernardo might have done the same thing, but we'll never know - and that's the worst part.
 
Not sure there is much to say over and above that with a fit Haaland it’s likely a different story.

Now the question of why the club were dragging Haaland through to the summer rather than being able to give him the 6-8 weeks recovery he needed after Xmas depends on whether you’re in the cult that deify Guardiola to Musk levels or you’re on the side who sees him as a fantastic manager who can get things wrong sometimes.

I've not read many articles in the media on it today tbh, rather not bother. But it wouldn't suprise me fuck um. Need a win against Chelsea to get ourselves over this.

Where do we play Saturday?

I think it was about the final being at Wembley - I only remembered half an hour into the game that was what they were referencing as everyone was talking about it. Trying to figure out what the black flags were for, then we realised tarmac. Anyway, it was a thing that we should never do again, it was toe curlingly awful.
 
After last season's heroics of winning every big game we needed to win I'd almost forgotten the awful sickening, empty feeling of losing one. It's not pleasant I hope it galvanises the team not to feel it again this season. Win eight games we've done the double. That would still be an incredible season.

Maybe Haaland wants to play and does not want to let anybody down, City and Pep could have said NO, but like us Haaland wanted to play and try and win because he is a blue, I never question anybody wanting to play through the pain barrier, But longer-term it's only going to get worse and hamper the team,

But let us not use the blame game, it was not our night and even a fully fit Haaland could have had a off-night
