Champions League Final 2021 City v Chelsea

[Eggs]

...well, well, funny old game. Chelsea the better team & deserving the lead, City on one of their off days.

No idea what’s going to happen but surely City improve.

 

[RomanReigns]

Ederson so close to being sent off as well

 

[Tin-Tin]

If a team who likes to counter is running though you at will it was a mistake.
Zinchenko a liability and needed Fernandinho as well.

Agree. He's tinkered a few times in the CL over the years and gone out. This year he hasnt and got to the final, playing how they know....... Then he goes and tinkers

Be fuming if I was a City fan. He needs to get Sterling off at HT for Aguero or Rodri/Fernandinho

City did that in the 1st half vs PSG. I think they can come back. However, Chelsea are very good defensively.

 

[Gilbert..]

Great game. The only thing that could improve this match is tom davies spraying it around.

He's lucky Havertz stayed on his feet, he'd have been off

 

[Sharpies volley]

What on earth was Zinchenko doing for the goal

He needs to get zinchenko off and get cancelo on .

Terrible player. What does Pep see in him?

 

[blue to the bone]

He's as bad as cuco him.
Not starting cancelo was crazy

 

[Sharpies volley]

As someone said before, city not turned up.

Chelsea want it more.

I just think it's more a case of Chelsea playing them perfectly along with Pep getting his line up wrong

Not even an off day; tactically they aren't set up to succeed. A blind man can see the problem here - no Fernandinho/Rodri means no pivot for attacks to start off from, nor any protection for the defence to balls in behind into space.

We have tactical formations in football for a reason; Pep has decided tactics are overrated on the biggest stage in football. Baffling.

 

[N.S.N.O.]

Peps overthinking may backfire one again.

Or his ego

KDB looking like he's been caught in the headlights.

Terrible idea by Guardiola to leave Fernandinho out. Tuchel must have looked at that and went "5 at the back, hit this lot on the break as they push up".

Arrogance has City losing here - Pep's arrogance.
