Some questions need to be asked after this game. Team press was very very weak. There was no directness. We steal the ball and then bring it back to centrebacks, as if we are playing Getafe

Also the level of some players was very well below what is needed. People at the club think you can really put a player of Martin's level on the pitch against PSG and get away with it. They exploit it, they are not amateurs

Zabarnyi is decent on the ball, but Pacho isn't. Point is though that they had tons of time on the ball after the initial period.

Why? Because their fullbacks are so damn good (and probably doped to the grills, but that's a topic for another thread).

Meanwhile we couldn't get out from the back mainly because our fullbacks were so vastly inferior on the ball, in speed, in acceleration, in fitness and in doping gear (but that's a topic for another thread).

That's the major difference, the point being that PSG didn't need their starting attack because the system absolutely overwelmed us, mostly because of their doped up fullbacks being so much better than ours.

That is where the game was won and lost.

Oh, and Bernal probably shouldn't have come on. Well off the pace- literally.

Second half was absolutely shambolic from us. Our lines were miles apart, what the hell was Flick doing in this game?

Also, referee fucked us with that decision without second yellow. English cunt.

Cubarsi needs to be benched, Bernal needs to go on a loan somewhere to regain his form. Subbing him in a game like this is a pretty bad decision, the guy was totally lost on the field.

They have a better deeper squad no doubt. We have a few individuals that surpass their best players but tournaments can't be won that way. We do need upgrades to our squad. We don't have a limitless budget so it will take time.

Not for most of the 2nd half. And if Yamal wants to become even half as good as he already thinks he is, that’s not a great excuse either way. The internet already have their Yamal in Nuno’s pocket meme after the Nations League final, this will just add on it further.

Yamal owned this fool today. Not sure what everyone was watching.

So Yamal decided to show up for the first 15-20 minutes then call it a day? All this hyping himself in social media is doing him no favors if he can’t back it up.

This. You know it reminded me of a boxer in a fixed fight. Where he comes out initially outclassing his opponent to show he could of really won. And then does nothing the rest of the fight and loses on points.

Why did Yamal disappear second half? What did panda do second half? How many times does creampie have to get creamed before Flick drops him as a starter? Garcia RB, Christensen/Cuba CB.

PSG has lot more tech in their whole squad and Lucho tiki-ied us off the pitch. Trashy wouldn't even make their bench, granted Barcola has a shit final ball.

Half fit Vit schooled panda.

Barcaball beat Bayernball today simple. First match I enjoyed watching this season.

Us playing super high defence with slow full backs is just gonna get toyed with against PSG, who have the 2 fastest full backs on the planet. Balde is only one we have that is comparable and when he came on even if he did well, we just had no control anymore so it didn’t matter. Luis Enrique knows us inside out. PSG is the best team in Europe by far and favourites to win CL again.
