midland_red Posted 18 April 2017 Share Posted 18 April 2017 No shame in going out to a team like that. We gave it out all and I'm so proud of the players. Lets hope to meet again......I do not believe for one minute the owners have lost their ambition for LCFC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drop Albrighton or move him to right wing and drop Mahrez? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

desertfox2 Posted 18 April 2017 Share Posted 18 April 2017 So, so proud of the lads. If we can keep the core squad together and make some good signings over the summer. We have a very good chance of getting back in Europe again. Europa league champions in 2 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atletico supporter Posted 18 April 2017 Share Posted 18 April 2017 Brilliant try...but not enough. If you had attacked in Madrid...you pay for your poor game in the first leg. You did nothing in Madrid. You get nothing now. i am happy about Ranieri. For the betrayals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Barry Hammond Posted 18 April 2017 Share Posted 18 April 2017 2 minutes ago, peterborofox said: Just not good enough at the back when it matters. They had one opportunity and took it. We had several and didn't take them. Fuchs was ball watching for the goal (copy of Sevilla away goal) and we got punished. That goal is probably a result of high level coaching from Athletico at identifying a weakness in a defensive setup. Our defensive strategy with crosses is for the full back to mark the far post in line with the centre half. Saul's run is timed to perfection, because he finds the point where Albrighton would look to pass him on to Fuchs before the true shape of the cross is seen and ends up in the little pocket of space to meet the ball where neither defender is in position to challenge. Of course this isn't all down to Simeone's genius, given Sevilla scored an identical goal too, but it is good coaching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had hoped that the likes of Slimani, Musa and Mendy would give us that quality that would enable us to make a mark in the Champions League, but that was not to be. £50m+ spent on these three, but no impact whatsoever. 2 of those were injured.

foxes_rule1978 Posted 18 April 2017 Share Posted 18 April 2017 Chilwell is so skillful, he had a fantastic game, Shakespeare with the two changes really got at Atletico, they had to fight hard in both games for that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheUltimateWinner Posted 18 April 2017 Share Posted 18 April 2017 Few things though Don't need to stop the game unless it's a head injury Time wasting is punishable by a yellow card No added time for the first half and only 4 for the second half?!

Marshall Cockney Fox Posted 18 April 2017 Share Posted 18 April 2017 Credit to Shakey as across the two matches he's demonstrated some proper tactical acumen in shifting things about when required. Defo deserves permanent role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastAnglianFox Posted 18 April 2017 Share Posted 18 April 2017 I loved that Chilwell was so hyper and full of adrenalin that in one 5 second spell he tried to take himself on, Cruyff turn nobody, fall over, tackle on the floor, get up then casually spray a pass....love him!!

What was the point of bringing Amartey on when we needed goals? I did think that but to be fair, pace didn't really threaten Athletico. He possibly thought the extra aerial threat of Amartey was better than Gray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
