Usually enjoy watching Rodrygo play but not today

Then again all attackers on both sides haven’t had a good day

To me Laimer has been bad. Pavlovic has been pretty much transparent. Useless. Front 3 horrible. Kimmich most. Mazraoui poor, Dier poor.

Laimer's given the ball away, but that's not his role. He's been doing a ton of productive running and has kept Kimmich from getting roasted worse than he has been...I would bring Goretzka on for him*

Pavlovic has been crucial to every stretch of possession Bayern have maintained.

Door and Mazraoui have been inconspicuous, that's not a bad thing for a defender :dunno:

Front 3 has been trash...especially for their standards.


*or Kimmich, with Laimer shifting to RB.

Those Monaco and Porto teams were such juggernauts...
Erh they were.
Porto destroyed everyone that year. And Monaco outplayed the Galacticos and newly rich Chelsea.

These two teams have been horrible.
They're both playing Italian catenaccio parking the bus.

Porto was playing exactly Italian catenaccio. I don't know about Monaco because I didn't bother to watch their games.

Porto was certainly not playing catenaccio.
They didn't park the bus. They scored 20 goals that CL year.
