GWT: Champions League - League Stage

[Power Man]

As long as Carlo does not bench Asencio...

Ugh, that’s what I’m afraid of

Meanwhile in Rotterdom (ugh why can’t we have consecutive separate posts)

I just saw the Bruges goals. Serves Gasperini right for keeping playing that awful Hien.

 

[Evilo]

Last player to be sent off for complaining in CL KO stage (and note here that there was zero agressiveness of anything like surrounding) was in 2018.... Verratti for PSG.
Not City surrounding the ref. Nor Barca or Real or Atletico.
Nope.

 

[Vasilevskiy]

Pep absolutely loves Rico Lewis but every time I watch him play it seems he just jogs around, looks deeply mediocre, and spends a ton of time pointing at where other players "need to" run.

Sounds like Frenkie De Jong

So feynoord just sold Gimenez to ac Milan and now they play one another… that really stinks

 

[gary69]

30 seconds in and Gimenez scores, it's level overall now.

He's been a great signing for Milan so far

 

[luiginb]

Milan aren't really covering themselves in glory. They play at home against a Feyenoord team missing 11 ! players, and with their talisman Paixao half fit and almost subbed off the first half. If I were Feyenoord's coach I'd take him out, he's not helping the team in his condition. Smal and Milambo also look like this level is above their pay grade.

 

[gary69]

Milan had couple of decent chances in the first half, where they should have a scored, a second or at least got a shot on goal. Now the idiot Theo Hernandez gets sent off.

 

[ScottishCanuck]

Theo Hernandez doing Theo Hernandez things.

Then pleading ignorance. Great call.

 

[luiginb]

Now the idiot Theo Hernandez gets sent off.

How do you dive like that while already on a yellow!?

 

[luiginb]

Subbing out Pulisic who IMO outplayed both Leao and Felix for the missing left back is definitely a choice by Conceicao

 

[Incubajerks]

However, the choir launcher with the megaphone at San Siro always makes me laugh so much!

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Milan weren’t doing shit tbh

 

[luiginb]

MLS baby!! Carranza put Feyenoord ahead in the tie with their very first shot on net tonight

 

[koyvoo]

Leao hasn’t been the same player since coming back from injury. Looks a shell of his former self.

He seems disinterested to me. While Joao Felix seems frustrated.

 

[luiginb]

Huge scalp by Feyenoord, but tbh I expect them to be an easy out for whoever gets them next. They weren't that great, Milan was really bad...

To Gimenez at least, probably wishes he could go back to Feyenoord to be able to continue playing in the CL

 

[luiginb]

Bruges also have the chance now to do something funny, although I'd still think Atalanta finds a way to get through. Hien being out injured gives them a higher chance though.

 

[gary69]

Brugge takes the lead, they must be favourites now, given Atalanta's recent poor form.

Scoring 2 min in is kind of funny

You mean a higher chance for Atalanta right?

Yep, I don't rate Hien for a European level team. He should be playing for the Genoas of the world , but Gasperini loves him.

He shouldn’t play in a top 5 league at all. He’s Swedens Maguire. Memedefender.
