Andre Silva has had the weirdest career man, only 27 but has played for 5 teams in 4 different leagues already
 
Citeh **** the bed there, their defending has been awful this half.

Gvardiol making up for his earlier error
 
Dudes really think Haaland is better than Mbappe :lol:

6' 2" and up is not ideal for a striker other than headers. Puts you at a disadvantage
 
Hope Olmo can make it back for the reverse leg next month too

damn i forgot he's out too. yeah theyre a dangerous squad if they can keep up this form they've been in since the WC break plus getting all their guys back healthy
 
manchester's defense been buns this half.. it was only a matter of time before leipzig equalized this
 
Any more discerning eyes know what’s changed tactically?

Can’t just be a pep talk/energy right?

i believe they changed to a 4-2-4 in the second half. they look like theyre trying to expose city on the counter by just simply using pace this half as well and it's working

 
Yeah 424 and we couldn't get out of our half. Haaland was even back behind the half way line at times struggling to hold the ball.

Any build up was killed and our guys were still barely going up. We couldn't impose our high line like the first half.

They really lack width in attack, outside of Mahrez they play inverted 8's/10's as their wide men who do most of their damage in more central areas.

With a striker like Haaland they'd be much better off with traditional wingers sending balls in from the flanks instead of everything coming through the middle.

They're too predictable nowadays and makes it easier to defend against.

Haaland would probably be on 40 goals already with the likes of Sane and Sterling still in the team
 
commentator on gvardiol's header: "raises up like a salmon in a fresh summer stream" :rofl::rofl:
 
Pep out here really not making any damn changes...who we resting for? Bournemouth? He even said we can't win the league. I don't get how you don't go all out for the Champions League.
 
It's gross how they play like Spain, just side ways pass after side ways pass, it's cowardly football

They still get results but their brand of football has become kinda tedious to watch over the years :lol:

They peaked in 17/18 watchability wise. Klopps boys play very high risk but they're always a better watch
