In case of good offer and a good substitute, Real Madrid will not retain Keylor Navas this summer. En cas de bonne offre et d’un bon remplaçant, le Real Madrid ne retiendra pas Keylor Navas cet été. (SER) #PSGhttps://t.co/NIpIeO877s— Vince (@VinceMalouh) August 25, 2019
You can't even reason with this level of "flimsy" fandom. We dominate them only needing to score one more or not give up a stupid late opportunity and now we're beyond shit. These dudes are dictionary definition of pathetic.
We were nicely creative and dominant with the initial formation. It's after the switch to this weird 4-2-4 that we completely gifted the match away, and our otherwise pretty well leveled attacks became to just lob the ball over huge lengths. Even if you argue that it paid off with Benzema scoring off a ball like this, we should have made a substitution right at the moment when he scored, we're talking before they take the kick off, take Benzema off who had a problem with his foot anyway, and sub a midfield player or an aditional defender in. We didn't, kept giving them space, and they eventually scored one of their multiple good chances they were creating on the counter We can blame Kroos for giving the ball away, Ramos for not just dropping the guy and instead letting him march, Courtois for the goalkeeping, but it wasn't just one chance. They came knockingat our door regularly.
We switched because we were chasing a goal and needed to bring on Jovic. If we subbed out Benzema we wouldn't have scored. We couldn't sub out Bale or Vinicius because we needed them to create. So how the heck could we avoid a 424 desperate for a goal late in the match? Who the hell should Zidane have brought on Valverde? Militao? The reality is you just don't want certain players held accountable. You are just trying to scapegoat anyone besides players you favor. Predictably.
of course Valeverde, why not? afte the goal we had just two CM, it was obvious (especially Benzy was feeling pain, Jovič already on the pitch), instanly he had add another player in the middle.
I'm talking before we scored. People are saying we shouldn't have played a 424 but we had no choice. Regarding the substitute, I think we conceded before Lucas could even enter the pitch so what good would that have done even if it were Valverde???
424 was idiotic. One of James/Isco should have been kept and one of Benz/Bale taken out . The Vini sub was a wasted sub because he did absolutely nothing out there. Zidane messes up but also these players are supposed to be able to keep a lead against this team.
Master of pass should be able to create with the Welsh dragon, for me Zidane got his subs wrong most of all with Jr who was playing high risk low return football. We've seen this before with Zidane, he doesn't seem to appreciate how vulnerable we are in midfield.
The Emir of Qatar refuses to sell Neymar. According to an agent close to the #PSG, Paris "does not intend to sell Neymar (...) All this is a bluff. The emir does not accept pressure and the club will not bow to the whims of a champion. »(LM) Bruno Satin: "From the beginning, I always thought that this is a serious takeover of the #PSG, which would pretend to study the offers. The Neymar episode is unique and shows the weakness of the PSG institution. (...) Leo is back and wants to show his muscles. »(LM) According to Le Monde, the departure of Neymar becomes more and more hypothetical. "The leaders of FC Barcelona have been able to deploy the treasures of imagination to build the formula that would allow them to snatch Neymar from the claws of the #PSG, nothing helps. " L’émir du Qatar refuse de vendre Neymar.Selon un agent proche du #PSG, Paris « n’a pas l’intention de vendre Neymar (...) Tout ça constitue un coup de bluff. L’émir n’accepte pas la pression et le club ne va pas se plier aux caprices d’un champion. » (LM)https://t.co/faha6bNIJC— Vince (@VinceMalouh) August 25, 2019 Just sign Marc Roca and let's get this madness over with.
Llorente also isnt playing at Atleti. Ceballos is more a loss I guess. Have you guys seen Camavinga of Rennais? What a beast and only 16 years old. Probably will be sold for EUR 80M+
Of course there was a choice. First sub should be Jović for one of midfielders James / Isco, followed by Vin for Bale, followed by Valverde for Benzema.
Why are people suddenly getting worked up to sign Marc Roca? Mbappé & Cavani are injured btw, I don't think PSG will sell Neymar now.
We were chasing a match where we strugglednto breakdown an opponent. Using hindsight now us the height of disengenioous behavior because we could have just as well ended 0-0 and you guys would have ripped Zidane for not gambling to win.
We need much more than that. We need first of all a decent game plan. It doesnt matter who’s playing at Barca, they have the same patterns every game. 433 and a lot of movement. Okay, Valverde changed some things but the basics are clear to everyone. We are just doing things without actually thinking of what we doing. We have no style of playing nor patterns like Atletico or Barca or City. We wont be holding any cups this year.
I know we are not linked to him in any way or he won't leave any time soon, but De Bruyne is my dream signing for us.
