Lille are a poor side. A couple of decent players in attacking areas mixed with mediocre players at the back. Shit to draw that game, lost all impetus following the 3 substitutions and never came back again.

We create so little in the middle of the pitch and rely solely on the wingers to create something.

We could’ve won this (and should’ve) but we decided to revert to Allegriball after we scored. The subs buried any shot at victory.

Decent enough performance but a disappointing result. This was a winnable game and with our fixtures we need to pick up points.
Yep. Annoying. We needed 3 here. Looks like the best we can hope for is knock out qualification.

I think a lack of depth especially at the striker position is hurting us right now.

I was having a quality time with a friend. I rushed home, packed my lunch box for tomorrow, packed the gym bag, got myself a cup of tea to sit and watch us shit the bed yet another time. When will I learn?

The frustrating thing is with this format there are teams with far easier draws picking up points .e.g Lille's remaining fixtures are pretty comfortable.

I've never liked the concept that we play in the same league but play different teams.

In my opinion it all starts from the mentality, lately we seem rather complacent, almost happy with the draws, happy with potentially just scrapping top 4, happy with struggling to advance to UCL knockouts…

The players, managers, board and even fanbase all need to demand and want more.

Lille's draw was way tougher than ours though. They got Liverpool, Real Madrid, Atletico, Juventus and Sporting who are on fire this season too. From their perspective it's a terrible draw, yet they earned 7 points after facing the toughest opponents, apart from Liverpool.

They also have Bologna plus Sturm Graz and Feyenoord at home. That's 3 extremely winnable games. We don't have any easy 3 pointers.

Wtf was this shit?! Why the game ended on 60th minute? 3 fucking passes in after the Vlahovic goal it was obvious it's ending 1-1.
Last 30 minutes was infuriating to watch. All these bitch-ass pussies needs a royal kick in the but :angrymob:

We have.

PSV
BRUGGE
STUTGART
LILLE

Instead of having 12 or at least 10 point from these games we'll have 7 if we win against Brugge.

I don't see us winning a game vs Man City, Aston Villa and Benfica.

The Leipzig game is an exception.

Lille won vs Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid.

IF we had these two opponents we will be happy to draw at least in one game.

I think we will reach playoffs somehow and get eliminated there.

Maybe is the best for this season as we will have time to focus on serie A to reach That fucking top 4. Because that's how weak this club is.

The Stuttgart result is the killer. Need to get a point at least vs villa and a win against Benfica and brugge.


We should qualify for the knock out realistically.

Villa away is going to be very tough. Exactly the sort of game we have struggled with in the past where the crowd will be on top of them.

Brugge should be a win. Benfica has not been good for us in the past.

They will play open though which hopefully we can exploit.

I think in this game we were a little unlucky. We deserved a win here, there have been far more frustrating draws. Motta is in a tough spot with the striker situation, we need a solution fast.
