2 so cheap goals. I can't accept City winning CL.

Big mistake by Navas.

Verratti is unreal. There is no better MF out there.

GET IN!!! 😍🤩

Come on PSG, make us proud! Nice they finally have all players fit.

We should play second leg like against Atletico. They also needed to score like Real. Remember first goal, great counter Kai, Timo and Ziyech.

Linked with Lewandowski today lol

When you play 3 DMs you are pragmatic? Conte played more offensive wing backs. I am not complaining, I said I am OK with playing like this, this season. But next season I would like more progressive football. Do you count Azpi or Chilwell as offensive players? I am sure no but if we go with CHO and Alonso it is different song. He clearly choose first two because of defensive game. Do you expect Kova, Jorginho or Kante to do something in the final 3rd? When I say 2 offensive players I mean we have 9 players on the pitch who are not likely to score. For example look what Poch did in PSG. Neymar is AM in 4231. Mbappe and Di Maria wingers and Kean /Icardi striker. Florenzi is offensive right back. Parades is playing regularly. This is way more offensive than what Tuchel used there. I like Tuchel, amazing coach.

I can say the same about people who don't rate Jorginho (majority of Chelsea fans). But I would never insult them because I am way above that.

Ok this season, he came mid season, we have a chance for success in 3 comps but for next season board should demand less pragmatism. He is really, really pragmatic coach. In Dortmund pressure is low, they have their style of play for decades so he was also like this. But when results are much more important and trophies are expected he turns into this. It was like this in PSG in important games. For example, quarter final of CL against Atalanta he played with: Navas, Kehrer, Silva, Kimpembe, Bernat, Marquinhos, Gueye, Herrera, Sarabia, Icardi, Neymar. So 4-3-3 where RB is someone who is more CB, CB on DM plus 2 DMs in Gueye and Herrera. Sarabia also someone who played more as AM in Spain. Only after he made offensive changes with Mbappe, Moting, Draxler and Paredes they won the game with 2 late goals. Very often he played with 3 DMs so basically all cards are on Mbappe and Neymar. But we dont have them. Now in Chelsea he almost always puts lineup where you just do not expect us to score more than once. Defensive wing backs, midfielders who never do anything in the final 3rd... Today we had like 2 offensive players. He needs to change this next season so we always have at least 4 or 5 offensive players like City or Liverpool with very offensive full backs.

Messi is free agent in 2 months.

Play Mount here. He is great against relegated teams. 4 of his 6 goals came against them in just 5 games.

Why was he taken off?

Before this game Werner had 1 goal and one assist in the last 3 games. Did not even started against Brighton in midweek. So his selection was definitely understandable. And this is the only two goals we scored in the last 3 games so...

He is one of the 3 most offensive players now under Tuchel. He should be judged on goals and assists solely. When we play James or Azpi and Chilwell as wing backs and Mount and Werner up front it is impossible to score more than once. And again proven tonight. When I saw lineup I thought only Pulisic can do something here and this is what happened. Pulisic definitely had better game and should stay when Havertz and Ziyech came in. It would be more offensive and Real was there for the taking.

Not really got result. They were there for the taking. Ramos and Mendy will be back for second leg. Benzema only goal threat in Real so Thiago and Rudiger are more than enough for him yet we played with this 9 defensive players. Our best player taken off in minute 66th? Why? While Mount stayed on the pitch and did nothing all game. 2nd game will be very hard to watch, and it will be close.

They got 5 yellows. We just one.

Really no issues with ref here.

Mendy and Ramos should be back for second leg so their defense would be much better.

I am watching it on CBS. And commentator said that 2 yellows in semis get you suspended for final. If he is not right I am not right either.
