Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - The Slotification of Liverpool is nearly complete

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

We have to discuss Messi's season... he had a moment vs. City and i thought alright he can still be maybe 75% of what he was... had to give him time to adjust too..

But guess what? Those moments were few and far between. He's not Jordan on the Wizards... that would be a disservice to MJ.

He truly is

Respect Pep and Klopp more after this. You don’t see any of their players going for glory ball when they’re down. They stick to the script and see shyt out

idk salah and mane love to do too much at times winning , losing or otherwise

From memory :
- PSG lost against Chelsea after winning 3-1
- PSG lost against United after winning 2-0
- PSG lost against Barca after winning 4-0
- PSG lost this tie after winning 1-0 and being 1 up

That's at least 4 upsets in 10 seasons under 4 different coaches. Feels like even prime Mou wouldnt be able to cure this team

Pochettino is gone. Mbappe is gone. Messi looks lost out there. Some moments of brilliance but I assume once Mbappe jets next year, Messi will have more control of the offense and the team built around him like it was at Barca

Messi isn’t going to work if they don’t get another technical midfielder to play alongside Veratti. They need to stop using the midfield for just pressing and actually play properly

He’s washed mentally and physically. Ronaldo just washed physically but he’s still got the fire mentally.

Nah... why bother. He's done. He can't finish in a crowd anymore.

exactly. That’s how they play regardless. You don’t see everyone in the front 3 channeling their inner Ronaldinho when they’re losing

 

[Kunty McPhuck]

true
if Madrid matches their last 25 minutes intensity while playing Camavinga and Valverde, they win. on top of that, Bayerns midfield isn't as technical with the ball. Vinga and Valverde are more technical with it than any Bayern midfielder. not to mention Modric,(the most technical on the field) who would be pulling the strings.
but this is Carlo we are talking about.

Italians gunna Italian in Europe.

 

[Jean toomer]

Modric had a game too

Midrib was tidy always in control
Benz was a gotdamn one man gang second half
But I’d give Vinci Jr MOM that boy ran his ass off

He’s really done. Checked out after that Copa win. Wonder how soon he’d have been done if he had won that 2014 WC

PSG's failure in Europe shows Ole's night in Paris wasn't that impressive

 

[Liu Kang]

Live look at @Liu Kang

I'm disappointed only, not that sad. I'm not a PSG fan, I just support French teams in CL

All that said.. Real don't seem a championship team to me. Bayern probably gonna get through again somehow.

this is more on PSG falling apart than Madrid actually staging a comeback
