Styles 9,790 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 I just don't enjoy knockout Champions League nights anymore. We play awful at both ends of the pitch, rely almost entirely on lucky breaks/set pieces as soon as we come up against anyone half decent and go out anyway.That is what makes 2012 even more bizarre. Our shit tactics finally worked in Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whiskey 173 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 I put a bet that iva would score and the game would end 1-1. So im pretty satisfied atm. Plus its a decent away result. Boring game though. Tibo motm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vybz Kartel 1,613 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 We have been shit the whole of 2015, with only the Swansea game hiding our poor play of late, would not be surprised if we went out on away goals because our defence looks incapable of keeping a clean sheet when it truly matters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vytis33 1,298 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Big Tibo MOTM for me...very strong performance. Particularly after watching Cech play so well.Now let's go win this thing at the Bridge!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supermonkey92 1,428 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Not sure if cesc plays bad against athletic teams or the big teams. Seems to be fuzzy difference between the two more and more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,996 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 This is further evidence that we could still do with a top class box to box midfield player who is dangerous in attack. Rather than having Ramires who contributes fuck all to our attack or Oscar who plays one great match in 5, I wish we'd get Pogba and play him just in front of Matić and Cesc. A player that can do it all effectively.We must at least TRY to sign him. We all know he's leaving Juve and he should be priority number one along with another CB. If we win the league we'll have plenty of cash to spend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dUMB 189 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 No way that ball would pass near Zouma to Cavani, of course it passed near Cahill. But he had a beautiful assist.And Fabregas is not good as AM, much better as CM. I think we should try to play 4-3-3 against big teams. Matic-Fabregas-Ramires and and Hazard-Costa-Cuadrado in front of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHOULO19 24,332 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 For the people complaining, Bayern got a 0-0 and had only one shot on target against Shakhtar. The cheap goal we gave away completely changed the momentum of the match. Credit to PSG who played very well and Blanc who got his tactics spot on.

cosmicway 1,333 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 I 'm not happy with the performence but last year we lost 3-1 there and then in Madrid we drew 0-0 but we were outplayed by Atletico, which was n't the case today with PSG.They had two good chances to make it 2-1.Diego did not finish one single job but he did keep them occupied. In general we did nothing up front. The goal and Hazard's low cross blocked by Sirigu early on.Well PSG is on a par with City I believe so you can't call this result bad, but we have to finish them off at the bridge.

ZOS 580 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 I don't care how many goals Bane scores, he's been a defensive liability all season. The right corner is not not Matic's responsibility or Willian's .. its his.And Ramirez brings nothing to the table anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbara 15,149 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 It is crazy you don't mention Courtois; he needs to be part tonight, no? [emoji12]I voted for him but forgot to mention.... he's been amazing, the reason we didn't lose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lionsden 4,689 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 That was dire. awful football and awful defending. what's the point of parking the bus if you are going to concede that many chances and rely on spectacular goalkeeping performance to get something from the game.

thekid9 418 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Absolute daylight robberyI'm Happy with 1-1 after thatFew points I have.1.Diego Costa has done nothing outside the BPL!,17 goals this season all of which have been in the league! what kind of improvement is he if he can't score in Europe? Torres/Eto'o/Ba all had a couple by this point in the champions league last year!2.Cahill is a total liability, Doesn't win any first balls anymore, Terry's positioning for the goal wasn't great, but Cahill should still have done better to put Cavani off3. Fabregas is not a number 10, works so much better in the pivot where he can dictate the temp and see every pass in front of him! 4.We lack something in the final this, I just don't know what.5.Tibo is an outstanding goalkeeper and saved our asses once again.and finally 6. Zouma second leg, I BEG YOU JOSE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheva. 5,373 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 It was disgusting to see them killing us with wing play, just like Man city always do. When will Mourinho finally learn? we can also do this to teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
