Matchday 4 (Group C) - Tuesday 31st October, 2017

[Stan 10,300]

Atletico Madrid vs Qarabag

Roma vs Chelsea

[True Blue 850]

Not sure what top expect really, Roma heavily relies on Džeko who creates all their attacks and bangs in the goals. Last time he was marked by Christensen who obviously needs more time and more games to keep a player of his caliber at bay. If Luiz starts we should see a more controlled game by us and we would be very okay with a draw in Rome. If we win we are basically qualified as the top team in the group.

[Cicero 3,756]

No coincidence that our back 3 has looked the best when Cahill hasn't been in there? Let's keep that up. 

 

Morata

Hazard----------------Pedro

Azpilicueta-----Bakayoko----Kante----Zappacosta

Rudiger--------Luiz----Christensen

Courtois

I agree but also can't agree that he has been the reason for our terrible defending.

Him and Alonso are our weakest points. Atletico, City, Roma, Spurs, hell, even Watford and probably United at the weekend will press them as they know they the most struggle under pressure.

Alonso has been totally off, and we don't have a player to provide him competition. Hope we get someone in January

Just baffling really.  Bloke probably thinks he's untouchable after his performance at Spurs. 

Wingbacks our most crucial position in our formation. Why did we put all of our cards on Alex Sandro and not have a Plan B?

[Pep Talk 39]

can't see Atletico failing to win again.

I'll give the board a call and let you know as soon as possible.

[Dalmore 91]

Roma would be more competitive in CHL if they still had Salah, Rudiger, Marquinhos, Paredes, Ljajic etc. They won't go far. I predict a draw once again against Chelsea.

[Cicero 3,756]

Cesc + Bakayoko midfield

Cahill and Alonso in defence

Yup. Going to be a long night. 

[Stan 10,300]

El-Shaarawy with a superb strike! 2 minutes in, right foot half volley outside the box. Another great goal in this set of fixtures.

[Bluewolf 4,292]

Ha ha.. Just got in and we are one down after a minute.. 

Knew we would be in the shit away after the home game... 

[Steve Bruce Almighty 2,836]

Roma player just tried to put his finger up his teammates bumhole. Pretty gross. Weirdo

[Mel81x 2,181]

And El-Shaarawy gets his second from another defensive error. Great going for Roma so far.

[Bluewolf 4,292]

Well done... 2-0 down now

[Bluewolf 4,292]

Now we are fucked... 

[The Artful Dodger 1,709]

Horrific defending.

[Stan 10,300]

Qarabag leading in Madrid  

[God is Haaland 575]

Panna, are you ok?

[Cicero 3,756]

Whole defence needs to hang their heads in shame. Shambles.

The attack is not doing us any favours either....

Gonzalo Jara is playing for U de Chile mate. Think you're watching the wrong game.

They are looking more dangerous and threatening than Roma, yet we are 2 goals down. Roma haven't threatened at all in front of goal and we gifted them through unbelievably horrific defending. 

Knew from the lineup this would be the outcome. Sort it out!

[Stan 10,300]

Partey scored a brilliant curling shot to make it 1-1.

Pedro Henrique sent off for Qarabag for a flying kick in to Godin's face.

[Bluewolf 4,292]

Thank god we have carrier bag next... a win there and at least we go through.. 

Then we get smashed by whoever we draw and out

[Mel81x 2,181]

What a rocket

[Stan 10,300]

Perotti. 3-0. 

[Cicero 3,756]

And that's that. 

All on Conte this one. No excuses.

:sipping my team: Guess you was right after all cicero! saw a great comment on twitter. "alvaro is a good player but lacks that fight/passion, the whole reason why RM didnt hesitate to sell him." On point

And how are Real Madrid doing?
