Everyone now knows how good he is after that performance against Yamal.

It's harsh to even call it a mistake IMO, brilliant play by Olmo. He's a 24 year old CB in a new league who has done incredibly well during a tough season, some of the posts without naming any names are absolute garbage.

Why?

Mild shock.

This probably blows your mind but fatigue is cumulative, not just this one match. Would be class if everyone could just reset to full energy levels after every match, could’ve started Joelinton and Gordon here without a worry.

Was there something wrong with the tactics on the first 30?

Almost as if we’ve been playing two games a week with lots of injuries for as long as I can remember and had a huge effort on Wednesday when man down for the majority of that match.

We were really good for the first 30 and in control. Fell apart after that but think that’s more down to players getting tired and losing their composure as opposed to tactical instructions.

And against the best possession team in the world.

Bit of both IMO. It’s tactics to be really straightforward but surely Eddie wants us to try and keep some possession in that last 15 minute spell when we were really struggling.

Another horrible new poster, lock the doors imo.

Elanga was IMO alright.

We need Joelinton for both tbh. Can’t blame resting him here as we were really good until the first goal.

Aye, really miss Bruno here. He could buy some freekicks and calm everyone down.

Really good until the goal. Horrible after the goal, every single player panicking whenever in possession. Need Joelinton on the pitch.

Got help on his ear on both decisions.

Banked had a great view based on that second last picture.

He really struggled with Cunha in the first half but thankfully had a much better second half. He was shielding the ball in our own box and Cunha just ran past him and nicked it, was horrible and wanted him subbed off for anyone.

Trippier went to Bankes after the HT whistle and Bankes pointed at his ear and told Trippier to go away. Pretty certain he gave the second yellow to Ramsey due to the lino.

How did he survive this assault without repercussions?

Roma seem to be very fluid now, haven't watched them much this season. Pisilli was absolutely everywhere.

What a hit by Conceicao!

The beautiful game. We could save everyone’s time by just letting both teams take 15 corners and 15 long throws and see which side scores more.

Looks like a pen that.

Just want to be clear that I’m not defending the club’s actions at all here. Members who regularly attend games should find it easier to get a ticket for a match like this rather than the club significantly limiting access to tickets. Some kind of reward or point system to members for the few high demand matches per season would make a lot of sense IMO. It’s also just one match, the extra revenue is a drop in the ocean in the big picture regarding PSR.
