Sibierski Posted yesterday at 06:23 Share Posted yesterday at 06:23 Looking at the seedlings so far, this would be my dream draw for ‘fun games’. Home - Barcelona, Frankfurt, Marseille, Celtic Away - Real Madrid, Benfica, Napoli, USG Looking at Pot 3/4 sides, depending on who the away is in 3, we should be looking at 10 points from those which means one win from other 4 games to go through. So much more easier compared to group stages (famous last words). Bratislava lost all 8 games last season and earned more money than Chelsea going all way and winning loads in Conference League Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted yesterday at 07:25 Share Posted yesterday at 07:25 21 hours ago, The College Dropout said: That explains Brighton nicking it against us in the league. It doesn’t explain that level of performance and tangible nerves from the team and the crowd. Eddie’s summary was fair. We played too desperately and made uncharacteristic decisions and mistakes. Don’t know why that’s so hard to accept. It happens to the best. The nerves from the crowd come when they see the players don't really look like they know how to break teams down who are sitting deep. I don't really agree that it was down to nerves from the players, the ones who have that extra bit of quality don't rush it and usually can produce something to unlock a stubborn low block. I think Howe knows that, and that is why he will keep trying to upgrade in one or two areas where we fall down in such scenarios. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howe got it right - ‘we were making wrong decision after wrong decision’. We do struggle against a low block and a decent defence that is true. We often start pressing aggressively and if we don’t score can run out of ideas in the second half of games and lose belief. But the cageyness, the rushing, the slipping, that was pressure and it was evident from the start. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the cageyness, the rushing, the slipping, that was pressure and it was evident from the start. I saw it differently, Bruno for me along with Tonali, handled the pressure better than most. He was giving himself time and resisting the press well for the most part. I thought we missed Trippier's calm and eye for a pass as well. My view is that when you are denied space that is where technique is found wanting, and then you get players like Murphy or Burn wanting. Not having a go at either, they've had fabulous seasons, but this is where you will miss Lewis Hall or someone with a bit more guile out wide.
