I still get depressed over Nedved not winning it and that we let go of Camo and Trez before we won the scudetto we definatly could of kept Trez when we think of the strikers who we had after him. Boriello (was useful tbf), Anelka, Toni, Bender :sergio:.
Should've kept del Piero for the final against barca :cry:

Didn't even get to watch the game because I was at work, but as soon as I got the notification about the missed penalty and saw the stats I knew we would $#@! it up. What a disgrace, what an embarrassment. As though we were playing Barcelona. We can still go trough of course, but clearly we need to smarten the $#@! up.
We're special man. We can make any team look like Barca when we're in the mood. Even the likes of Cagliari.

Watching the highlights, it didn't seem that bad. We had too many chances to kill the game even after 2-1

Second goal was totally on Gigi

I don't wanna be cynic, but in my opinion we should get disqualified and embarrassed (maybe that's too harsh), but man you can't go on like this with the status quo. Every summer we sell one star and weaken our team! At this rate it we will not win CL, not with this mind-set. We simply can't or don't want to compete with other teams! Best case scenario we will reach semi-finals this year! That's the furthest we can go with a bit of luck! I feel sorry for Buffon!

Selling Bonucci hardly weakened the squad in retrospect. I don't think we had a bad mercato. We bought two very good wingers and Matuidi. Shame he was injured for today, and that really is a big problem. We always get stupid injuries right before important CL games. 2 years ago against Bayern we didn't have Chiellini on both legs and Dybala for the 2nd leg.

I said it before that we need to start crushing lesser teams instead of trying to preserve energy. Hoe many more times are we going to looking clues sfter taking s lead and just sit back and allow teams to get back in the game???
The irony is that defending is not even energy preserving. It takes more energy to defend than attack, because when you defend you are constantly chasing the ball, while the attacking team lets the ball do the work.

When you look at statistics, the team that has less possession usually covers more distance.

:facepalm:
I would have waited at least until second leg to do this. If we go through this photo will be remembered forever.

The injuries is just another annoying factor to the whole thing. But we cant blame this on injuries, that would be hypocritical to say the least.

We had plenty of chances to win this game: Berna could have scored, Mandzukic should have scored, and Higuain missed a penalty. We had our chances and blew it. Not deadly enough when it mattered.

Tottenham would off course dominate the midfield battle, not much else to expect, when a semi-retired Khedira is chasing them and pjanic has an off day. Predictable.
