Atletico Madrid (A) Champions League 18/2/20. 20:00

[BeefStroganoff]

This is why i hate winter breaks or any kind of mid season break. It just doesn't work for us. We were slow and lethargic at Norwich and we are slow tonight. We need some heavy metal football i feel, the tempo is just too slow for the players we have.

[Funkasy]

We were 3-0 down to barcelona a year ago, this is nothing. 

[coachpotato]

Standard shithousery combined with a worrying ability to be knocked off the ball easily when we’re anywhere near their goal gives us massive possession and no goals.

 

Has happened before and will happen again unless we get as street smart as some of these teams are. 
 

Our control needs to be snappier and if we’re going to bang crosses in then there needs to be someone gambling to get on the end of any crosses we put in.

 

I don’t think they’re all that fit either so if we keep at them they’ll make mistakes. Just don’t concede again.

 

 

[Red House]

Gini is far too slow/safe with his ball progression for this type of games.

 

Virgil and Joe have been uncharacteristically sloppy. Can't afford to concede a second here. Also desperately need Sadio to keep his head.

I don’t get it. You constantly defend this sort of shit. Why?

Where is he defending it??

[Nelly-Szoboszlai]

We're moving the ball well from side to side. But keep on doing that. Then it breaks down. 

 

I'd look at taking Wijnaldum off. He hasn't performed that bad, but we need a midfielder who can get on the ball higher up and create. Keita or AOC. Or maybe Minamino, with a change of shape and him as a number 10.

[Ne Moe Imya]

These will tire. We are pulling them all over the pitch, they can only sub 3 of them.

 

I know they're in good shape and they're masters of shithousery, but at some point we will get in. Just need to put it away when we do.

[LFC 6 Times]

This has been ideal for ateli so far, they look rock solid at the back and very dangerous on the counter and from wide areas. Virg, Trent and Fab been poor. I think this is a game for Naby. They’re a completely different animal away from home.

This Raheem Sterling advert is absolute shite. He's preaching about things he's guilty of. Prick.

I completely forgot about Minamino. Get him and Keita on for Mane and Henderson.

Not to get involved in scuffles and how he stands up to racism.

Using overload ballside like the other tryhard kids on FIFA. Cunts.

 

Sidenote. Heard from a reliable source that Mourinho just finished a powerwank. He will tomorrow announce he taught Simeone everything he knows. And that he is going back there as an apprentice because Simeone have taken it to another level of shitness. 

 

 

Come on lads cunt them now please ffs.

I think I saw it last week, something like we're better if we all work together. Go tell that to Joe Gomez you fucking whopper-blert.

It's not as bad as the Gazprom one to be honest.

 

Why do they even advertise on football matches? Are they expecting football fans to go out and buy some extra propane on the back of seeing the ad?

[dockers_strike]

I dont think anyone except Alisson has shone in that first half. You can pick holes in any of the outfield players play tonight, their touch, strength on the ball and speed of movement has been poor.

 

The ref and his officials have been shite, giving them a throw that was ours that lead to the corner for their goal, their players falling over, giving a foul against Mo when he had his foot on the ball, the oppo kicks it falls over and gives them a free kick!

 

Sadio needs to be very careful this second half because they're surrounding the ref every time he beats their man. I think he's too inspirational to take off at this point though.

 

Id take Gini off for Keita or Chambo now. Origi on for Sadio.

 

[aws]

We often struggle away from Anfield against sides who defend deep and dive at every contact.  It kills our pressing game. 

 

I'd be surprised if AM don't start flagging and allowing us more space in the last 20 minutes. 

[El Rojo]

This game might need an Ox piledriver yet. Divock on for Sadio?

[niallers]

Mane off for div

[Johnlj]

Origi ?

I'd love to play against the little cunt just so I could boot him through the air. Bullying arrogant lying little cunt. 

[Lee909]

Klopp worried about a shithousery red card for Sadio

[niallers]

Mane was taken off to stop him getting the road. 

[KMD7]

Div on for Mane

Yep.

 

Makes us less threatening now though.
