Optimistic Nut Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Some soft decisions I know, but it can't be coincidence that the Premier League clubs seem to lose a bit composure in these games? Nani v Real Madrid last season, Demichelis last night, the pen today. Very rarely do you see players from those clubs do the things our's did in those games. Down to mentality?

Parky Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Robben has an acre of space on the right, but instead cuts inside and walks into a wall of Arsenal players. Such a one-trick pony it's ridiculous. How he's still effective is a mystery to me. That one trick is wonderfully effective But is it? He's cut on to his left and curled the ball towards the far post 3 times? 4 times? With no success. He hasn't really done anything else with the ball, hasn't found a teammate in the box, nothing. For all he looks menacing when he's skipping down the right with the ball, the outcome has been the same every bloody time. Has done his fetal position thing when you go near him...That's about all in his locker the cunt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

triggs Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Nice one, Bayern Ozil has struggled so much lately, I can't explain it. I thought he had a good first half in this game. Then they put him on the wing and expected him to do the Jonas role which he obviously wasn't going to do well Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hatem garrincha Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Preferred Bayern under Heynckes tbh - bit more cut and thrust, and directness. Same here. Hate all this Barca lite bollocks. Me too Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Nice one, Bayern Ozil has struggled so much lately, I can't explain it. Zero players making any decent runs.... at least when Walcott was injured Ramsey was making great runs for him to find earlier in the season. A playmaker without team mates making runs is as pointless as a striker who can't finish. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Must've been 85+% possession from Bayern 2nd half. Masterclass in how to play against 10 men, pass and move, keep everything moving, fair play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beren Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Hammered off Liverpool Uninspiring draw with Man Utd Creditable win over Liverpool Creditable loss against Bayern They react well to adversity this season. If they can continue to beat the chaff of the PL they can still make this season one that's remembered by a trophy - which I think they deserve.

Not sure I think it's got anything to do with the mentality as much as it is they're just facing sides better than they are - most of the reds aren't from aggression, they're from being unable to contain the opposition in their area over 180 minutes.

Ameritoon Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 So that Ozil honeymoon has ended for Arsenal fans Maybe don't let your fullback take a penalty If the full back has a left foot like Alaba, I don't see the problem with it. Always shite when you miss a penalty, but can't blame the decision to let him take it. I've seen him take really good pens before, just seems like with all that attacking talent they would let one of them take it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
