I notice that in my abscence here, this forum has turned several more people in to peasant filth
Why did Mandzukic play ?
We like to focus with the width on the connection with Ronaldo but also alot of those long vertical passes. If you play Dybala, they put a CDM on him and both CB's have the sandwich on Ronaldo.
Mandzukic on the other hand. You
need to put a CB on him or we redirect all long passes to him instead. Both CB's won most of the duels with Mandzukic
Both CB's also got shafted by Ronaldo on two goals because they had to watch Mandzukic too.

Yep. And while Godin, the best heading CB in decades, was beeing his kryptonite, Ronaldo headed in a brace.
How happy is godin now about beeing some shitty metal thats out of the CL ?
