And how were we supposed to do that when we got robbed by an abysmal refereeing decision? We did well first leg, nullified them and lost by a farce.

We didn't nullify them.

 

They only tried to keep a clean sheet after scoring.

As much as some of their players can be frustrating, if Atletico go through then I hope they go on and win it. Brilliantly drilled team.

 

But they'll probably lose in the final to Real again.

Did schmeichel have a save to make? No.

And they were still going for it at the end so not sure what game you watched...

Why didn't he shoot? Nothing to lose there, final seconds of the half, you never know. I think we've got to shoot at almost every half decent opportunity now, we aren't going to play it around them.

So your answer is just to accept defeat and learn some lessons then?

I agree atletico's lineup is perfect. 

That's exactly why it's a waste of time playing okazaki in the middle with albrighton on the wing. 

It's exactly why we need a big man to head the crosses, or alternatively a young flair player to run at them and open up space. 

 

 

Nope.

 

We tried playing Mahrez in Atletico....how did that work out?

 

Flair is not the answer against Atletico.

But oh great one, You've not told us what is? 

Maybe having someone in the box who can actually head a cross?

Shows how average Atletico have been.

 

If they were at their best, we would probably have 60%+

I swear you just come on here for a row :rolleyes:

These 120 odd minutes begs the question as to how Sevilla are above Atleti in the league? Sevilla are not even on par with them!

 

They're not anymore are they?

Sigh. This honestly just comes down to ATL being a better team. Proud of Leicester though, other teams would have crumpled in on themselves a long time ago.

Not to lose the first leg 1-0 to the best all round side in Europe?

 

Atletico's lineup tonight is simply perfect.

 

4 Physically strong defenders.

3 holding mids and a center half in midfield.

1 false 9 and 1 winger up top.

 

 

We can learn a lot from tonight. The likes of Mahrez either needs to be played in Okazaki's position, or dropped.

 

(Not a bash on his performance).

 

Notice how Atletico carry no-one when defending.

 

So you want to play a vortex formation with a time machine in the middle?

You've got to say perfect tactics from Simone, pundits rabbit on about us being found out this season, I disagree but Simone has definately found us out and knows how to play against us
