Roma (A) - Post Match

[TrickyTrevLeftPeg]

Be good enough to win the game without the ref being bent.

 

The simple fact remains we weren't good enough. We haven't been good enough for a long time. We don't create enough.

 

We don't show any urgency. I don't want to put up with this risk adverse and safe football Rodgers serves up next season.

 

His philosophy is outdated and I don't trust him with a rebuild. 

 

Rodgers for me can go.

... after that, there's not a damned thing to say.  So I'll leave this tread to the rest of you

[SMX11]

The thing is Rodgers will be proud of that performance, ****ing boring football. 

[Vazman]

We got what we deserved, the Ref was awful, Europe was great whilst it lasted not sure we will be back anytime soon, if we continue on this path sadly.

[oxtonfox]

Disappointing end tonight, we lacked the real top class creativity but a great run in the competition nevertheless.

Brendan and the players, have some fvcking shame. There was NOTHING and I repeat NOTHING good or even decent about our performance today. We can whinge about the ref all we want had we actually created ANYTHING

[RowlattsFox]

Pathetic quality..Just not good enough to be at this level. 

[KFS]

Please **** off Brendan. We don’t set up to even try and it’s soul destroying.

[Wasyls Pec Deck]

We were poor. No doubt.

 

But I’m so angry. We could have played better, but my god the referring was atrocious. It’s hard enough when you play away to a team like Roma in a big stadium - but the very least you expect is an official who isn’t a corrupt ****ing ****

“Young side, will learn from the experience, proud of the team, controlled the game, young side, young side blah fvckin blah ……

Losing in a European semi final to Roma is not a bad place to be. I love that I've got to go to these games with my son this season. They are magical nights. 

 

It's disappointing of course, but I love that we were there as a club. 

 

Cherish these moments. It's part and parcel of being a fan. 

[KingKoala]

Roma was nothing.

I feel like we lost against Burnley team today.

Not good enough from us.

[sammy82]

Heartbreaking to lose without even troubling them, Jose just schooled Brendan on how to defend! Disgusting performance for a semi final

I'm normally Rodgers in.

 

But I think he's time is up.

 

Passive, low risk football.

Same, I think this has finally broken my faith in him. Set pieces still a problem, slow possession and no penetration whatsoever.

 

Where do we go from here? I genuinely don't know.

Ref is a c… , he’s totally ruined this game 

He denied us a stonewall penalty and has honestly probably cost us a few bob. The penalty was clear and I just don't get why it wasn't given

[urban.spaceman]

Match fixing. Pure and simple. Corners, throw ins, fouls and penalties going to opposite way. 

[The Guvnor]

I'm honestly not sure if we are just an average team or a talented group of players with an overated tactically limited manager.

[sdb]

1. Start slow 

2. Show zero aggression

3. Concede from a set piece

4. Dominate possession against a team happy to let us play side-to-side 

5. Win a few set pieces

6. Hit the first man

7. Play some more sideways football

8. Threaten to enter the opposition box

9. Full time

10. Prepare for the same in a few days time

[Vlad the Fox]

Didn’t create anyth8ng but then neither did they. We get the penalty that game finishes a draw and we’re in extra time. But completely and utterly ****ed over by the ref, some of the decisions were as bent as you’re likely to see.

Rodgers will be delighted with those possession stats 

[Legend_in_blue]

Meh.

But if the ref or VAR had given the penalty at the start, it would have been a different game.

 

When games are generally settled by one goal, big decisions need to be right.

[BraunstoneFox23]

Just soft, easy to attack, physically weak. In a word: limp. What a humbling.

[Metal Lover]

I never want to play in that dog shitty Conference wank ever again. Never wanted to in the first place.  Total waste of energy.
