I love the fact that he clearly figured out Mendes between games 1 and 2, knew he couldn't beat him for straight up pace, so those little hesitation to get him off balance was key to beating him. He's gonna be so freaking good, just no injuries please

Anyone but Madrid or Bayern. Freaking hate those guys.

It was a good tactical game between the two managers, they did what managers should do, try to cover their teams own weakness and take advantage of the other teams. But he got luck, 10% chance he wins, especially after we get the first goal.

Except we had literally only 2 las masia players in the entire XI, 3 if you include gundogan. No chance we were gonna kill them with possession, not with de jong at DM especially. Gotta look at the realities of the game and squad. The plan was to absorb pressure and hit on the counter.

Yea and both were lucky AF to go through and didn't have de jong in Midfield lol. Messi missed a PK and Bojan if I remember correctly goal should have stood. Teams don't get through down 10 without a huge slice of luck and hard work.

Where is @Horatio. Ready to admit he doesn't make a difference to how we play now?.

I get the feeling gundogan is gonna be pissed if this happens, he definitely didn't come here to help us develop young players, lol.

Yep okay The reality of the game and k.o comps doesn't fit your narrative, but you can keep trying. Barcelona have 5 CL and in all those we were by far the best team in the comp, this guy believes this is how all teams win the CL. PSG were average bar maybe 2 games this entire run and are on...

A few of our fans thought he had a good game and we were lucky he didn't score many more I don't think anyone remotely reasonable thought he was good against us. Our defense had him pocketed to matter where he went.

You said worthy and I stopped reading. Says everything about your view on the game, vs the realities of football and what happen this game. Like I said In your mind, if we aren't the greatest we don't deserve to win. The entire history of K.O football disagrees with you. We don't go down to...

And most of those teams probably didn't lose there best defender and leader at the back, when doing down to 10 men. I get the point, that two goals up, just maybe we could have done something, but realistically against all that pace it would have been difficult, especially after the 2nd goal...

Yea barcola was excellent, would have him on our left wing.

Also if lewa has made that pass to Torres, maybe just maybe, we could have pulled it off on penalties. There was a PK and the last goal came when we were going for it and by a mistake. Nothing went out way this game, it definitely doesn't feel like our other European disappointments, where the...

I get the feeling, that if he and gavi started, instead of de jong and pedri we wouldn't have gone down to 10 men. He would have probably been better positioned to come across against barcola and gavi would also have started on that side, and you know that mofo would have been pressing like a...

Lol, note I said them?? And you came up with 1 of the goated teams. Just goes to prove the point, really. That's the exception, not the rule, but good one lol. What are your thoughts on de jong?, no BS just curious.

It's universal accepted that we handle Mbappe when 11 vs 11 as any team is realistically expected to. We weren't gonna stop him for having chances, but he has few if any clear cut chances when we were playing 11 vs 11.

Name them? Name the game were a two world class teams, 1 with a arguable the best attack in football, where the other team goes down to 10 men for 60 minutes and got a result.

Mentality is irrelevant, just as a matter of fact. We weren't beating PSG with all that pace down one man, simple as end of. You can see the logic in the subs he made, could have made different ones, but the subs he made weren't without logic. The only blame Xavi has in these two ties, is the...

So your point is what exactly? Our keeper shouldn't have to make saves? Do his job? We should have kept them from having any shots on goal? The plan was to weather to storm, we knew they were going to come out strong in the first 15-20 minutes, keep it at 0 or at most 1 goal during that time...

After going down, the game was over bro, nothing that could have been done. Then your boy De jong killed us even more with the 2nd goal. Lewa sent us to hell when he didn't pass to Torres. None of those had anything to do with Xavi. Even gundogan said in training we were working on closing...
