The inability to convert chances is incredible this season... without Mo's goals **** knows where we'd be.

We don’t face many teams happy to sit on an aggregate lead in the league unfortunately.Originally posted by Fredo View PostGreat performance, damage done in first game. Play like that consistently in the league and we’ll get 4th.Trey Nyoni: countdown to stardom-2 years1year0.5 years

Unless we find our scoring touch across the front three, we won’t. Leeds, Newcastle and United are next and all three won at the weekend. If we can’t be more clinical it’ll be Europa...

Performance in Madrid wasn't good enough but we still had enough to go through tonight, we let ourselves down in front of goal.
Trent and Phillips were outstanding for me! Milner too whilst he was on.
Robertson and Gini look unsurprisingly tired to me
Not sure how we fix our attacking issues though, Mane's decline has caused us as much problems as the defensive issues lately.Vive la France

Jota out wide was strange. This season he's our best finisher. Get him in the middle. Keep mane and salah where they were. Take Bobby off. We gave up midfield and congested the central areas with the subs. Every corner put in the mixer is pointless without virgil or matip. Not one short corner. Robertson takes a **** dead ball, trent not fit enough to get across to take them? Last 3 seasons he has. Why the change?Always borrow money from a pessimist. He won’t expect it back. Oscar Wilde

To be fair we have also created chances in the other games we have lost, we had something like 110 shot in the 6 home games we lost or 8 home games we failed to score in. We need to create more chances but we haven't been taking alot of the good ones we have had. That's been the case at least since the turn of the year.Originally posted by Tribute View PostBar the finish, we created the chances. We haven’t done that in loads of games this season... the finishing cost us. We weren’t blunt, we just can’t finish.The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved.

All the ‘cigars’ chat though? We went at them first half and they were rocking for 30 minutes for sure. We should have scored. Obviously that is an issue, but to say Madrid coasted through this game is not exactly true.Originally posted by Kenneth View PostI haven’t said we are.
They haven’t come to take us on head to head, we’ve been allowed more of the ball as a result.
Anyway you go on with your half empty pint I’ll get back to my half full one
I think this squad with Van Dijk back a couple of signings and the crowd will be challenging again next season.
Positive signs from Mane for 45 mins, and if anything the subs took away out momentum.Modifying post.

Guardiola is still officially a failure at Citeh until he does. That was the only reason they brought him in.. to win the CL... they’d already won cups and the Premier League... they’ve always been **** in Europe but this year there’s a distinct possibility it’s their year...

We had enough chances to win the game but credit to Madrid who actually defended very well. Their wingers chased our full backs and the tactical changes they made moving Valverde to midfield helped a lot......Originally posted by Fredo View PostGreat performance, damage done in first game. Play like that consistently in the league and we’ll get 4th.
But
If Salah scores early then they may **** the bed - I love Salah but he does miss some absolute sitters. Bobby worked hard but nothing really around the box and Mane looks a shadow of himself.......if we were to sell one of the front 3 I’d let him go because on this form he is a liability.
I thought Trent was superb and Ali stepped up when needed. V disappointing because it was mistakes that cost us in the first leg and this lot aren’t great
I smell City vs Chelsea in the final and it sickens me - to be honest as much as I hate the club I hope Madrid win it. Only proper club left in it now

I still 100% blame VAR for absolutely everything... :-)
