Feels like Bayern just didn't show up, they definitely could have kept it at just 1-0 with Rodri wondergoal but the other two goals were comical defending especially by Upamecano.

Kante/Silva/Chillwell all starting bodes well for Chelsea but Real should still be heavy favorites since they have actual finishing.

E:drat Kante is so fast, been looking excellent since he came back from his injury.

Chelsea are usually ok with the ball but Madrid's pressing so high up they haven't been able to string 2-3 passes after the first 5 minutes.

Still surprised every time I am reminded that Auba is at Chelsea now

Don't worry the managers don't know he is there either. I think Lampard put him in one game then he wasn't on the bench in most of their games either.

Also how did Napoli not score in that first half, they had so many chances. They really missing Osimhen and they have no decent backup striker, Elmas isn't really a number 9 either. They are basically unstoppable if they have their full starting 11 but even without one piece they struggle, been a miracle they haven't had too many injuries until now.

Seriously, where are the goals supposed to come from in that line up?

Chelsea has no one that can score but I feel like with Joao Felix and Havertz together atleast they might create chances.

Whipping crosses for Kante and Havertz seems like a bad idea. Not sure why Mudryk and Felix on the bench, atleast they would have pace.

Ulio

Feel like Gallagher doesn't add much, they can just put kante in his place and put on Felix or Mudryk.

Kante playing as number 9 now and Havertz out wide.

Ulio
Feb 17, 2011


Chelsea got lots of momentum, feel like they just need some penetration bring in Felix or Mudryk. Real seem to be asleep but all it takes is one counter with guys like Vini.

Ulio
Feb 17, 2011


Feel like if Lampard just started guys like Mudryk, Felix, Havertz over Gallagher and Kante as a striker they would maybe not lose every game. Kante is great but as a 9...

E: Pep has ruined every other's managers brains into thinking they can play players off position. This team literally can't score goals and their solution is to put a cdm like Kante at number 9.

napoli cursed

Ya feel like they should have definitely won this series. They had so many chances and if they had Osimhen in the first leg he would have scored one of the million chances they had. After the 4-0 defeat to Milan they definitely figured out what to do but they still couldn't handle Leao. Leao just steps up in big games he is so clutch.

Man Groetzka and Kimmich really can't pass the ball forward at all? Upamecano is awful at defending but he has been passing forward more than those 2.

Bayern look much better in attack today but their midfield is still non existant. Also you would assume Muller would be perfect for games like these but hes been on the bench for both.

Maguire has three people closing him down, De Gea sees everything and then sends him a weak pass Maguire has to wait for. That's 100% on De Gea.

Honestly the speed of the pass seemed fine. It seems like Maguire asked for it, he definitely needed to just smash it and hope he gets it to get to air or deflect far enough.

I know Valverde is known for his power shots but that was an absolute bullet by De Bruyne. Feel like if Courtois got hands on it, it would have still gone in.

Inter were favorites vs AC in their current form regardless if Leao played or not. But Leao out definitely not a good thing and now Bennacer out as well.

That was no pen, feel like Lautaro scores that if he doesn't take the dive.

drat Juve scored at the literal last minute of extra time 96th minute of 6 min extra time. Going 1-1 to Seville will be less than ideal but better than nothing.

probably would have about the same chance in the final

Their defense has been quite good since the start of this year. In a single game they definitely could grind out Man City or Real. If they faced them in semis I am sure they would lose to both.

Courtois saving Real madrids rear end here. Really not sure why Kroos and Modric both starting when you have 0 possession. Tchoumeni would surely be a great player in this game just for all the off work he will do.
