GWT: UCL Matchweek 2 & 3

[Savant]

No it wasn't and he's garbage for doing that.

On second viewing it’s definitely a red card but I don’t think he is trying to give Bobby sweet chin music either. Ref has to call that with his foot that high up

 

[Jersey Fresh]

Only eyes for the ball and Firmino runs into his path.

Missed the first half, but Reus looks awful. Shame Witsel is so washed.

But he’s on the scoresheet…

But he’s on the scoresheet…

That's the Reus special. He'll probably also pick up an assist when Haaland scores out of nothing.

 

[KlausJopling]

What a ball by Angelinho.

 

[Evilo]

Everytime I hear a commentator say "ball taken away by Draxler", I'm so surprised I watch hard to make sure he didn't mistake him for another player.
Effort is such an overrated word for him.

 

[Savant]

Robertson missed a very similar chance to that at Anfield in March 2020

 

[Evilo]

Angelino LB to Mukiele RB.
Nice goal.

DD should take note and show them to Pavard.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Missed the first half, but Reus looks awful. Shame Witsel is so washed.

Nice 3-0 by future Bayern player, Antony.

But he’s on the scoresheet…

He’s become such a liability over the last few years. Aside from a 2-3 month stretch at the end of last season when UCL qualification was at risk, he contributes almost nothing when the team has the ball. I’ll give him that he’s good at pressing, but his offensive contributions suck at this point in his career aside from the occasional moment of brilliance. It’s not his fault that his athleticism went so early due to injuries, but he shouldn’t be captain anymore because then the coach feels the need to play him every game and he’s a hindrance to the team in a starting spot.

 

[hersky77]

Trippier sold the hell out of that one.

shouldn’t even be a foul

 

[Evilo]

PSG can't get away from Leipzig's press and they have the players to. Lack of effort is the problem here.

 

[Savant]

Trippier sold the hell out of that one.

shouldn’t even be a foul

This is what the rest of the game is going to look like

 

[Savi]

Leipzig winning in Paris would be the absolute worst result for Brugge

 

[Evilo]

Wij and Danilo in.
Can't say I like the subs, but the midfield needs a shake up so why not.

 

[Live in the Now]

Marsch represents the US pretty well as a manager I would say. A lot of people have complained about him and it seems like he's under pressure but they gave him a fully rebuilding team to work with.

 

[Burner Account]

Atletico are repulsive

 

[Evilo]

Danilo goes to CB so 3 men at the back.

 

[Live in the Now]

We're trying to move the ball too fast here and look like shit. Time to slow it down.

 

[Evilo]

Going 3 at the back means stretching the Leipzig press horizontally, which seems like the bright idea.
But it also means less people in the center of the pitch so the ball won't be easy to get back.
Then again, PSG has the possession, so that's not the problem.

I still think PSG should play 3 at the back every game.

 

[Savant]

Really interesting to see Atlético playing with 10 compared to how Chelsea played with 10 men at Anfield earlier this season

 

[Evilo]

Leo Messi !
Great pass by Mbappe, great press by PSG to get the turnover.

 

[Savant]

We're trying to move the ball too fast here and look like shit. Time to slow it down.

Atlético doing Atlético things. If this stays tied it will probably be because of Oblak

 

[Live in the Now]

Not many forwards doing what Firmino is doing here. Guy tackles like Makelele, wins the ball and gives a huge run forward before Jota falls down.

 

[Savant]

Atletico are repulsive

There is a reason they are a horrible matchup for Liverpool
