Slept on it. Thought about it. Still * off about it. Feel like I've been punched in the guts. That was absolutely pathetic.

 

Totally agree, we just didn't have the same tempo or attitude that we showed in the home leg. Fair bit of frustration between the players at times which I don't like to see (better kept for dressing room) Ntcham, Dembele and Rogic all got it in the ear at various points from the players behind/beside them especially Broony and KT.

 

aye time to close this. the dream is over.

 

Im not surprised. In fact I agree with you 100% and I said all this at the start of the season. The question I have is....Is it the board being tight-fisted or is it Rodgers being unable to identify quality CB's in the £4-5 million bracket?. I know the board have a reputation for being tight fisted but I honesty think if Brendan went to them and said we desperately need to sign (insert name) for around £5 million then he would have got it. We've made over £60 million in the last 2 season through CL money and money from Van Dijk going to Liverpool. Im blaming Rodgers for the defensive shambles not the board.

 

your right about that, id rather not be in it if were not gonna give it our best shot to advance

this * about being happy to be in it where does that * even come from, i hate it

way back when i was a youngster i watched brian mclair, the *, roy aitken, murdo macleod, peter grant, paul mcstay, tommy burns, danny mcgrain, pat bonnar and we could knock the ball about fast and accurately not all the time but at home we always scored and created great chances to score, now at the mid to the latter end of the 80's it became clear that the foreign teams were dominating the ball in posession, tiring our players out as we were getting moved all over the park trying to win the ball back, then these european teams would up a few gears and slice through our tired players that were ball watching

we are trying a version of this style today but (well have been doing it in europe for a while now under a few different managers, since strachan i believe and he has been the best at it although lennon did it well to

what we seem unable to do since we started playing the possession game is the quickening the tempo up in the final third after say knocking the ball about for a couple of minutes

 

Kinda gutting when you look at the draw if we had been zenit you would have liked to think we could compete with leipzig. ... board don't have the same ambitions our fans do

Wener and Forsberg would tear us a new one

 

Yeh going by last night's result ... my point was say on Wednesday night before the match the draw was done and we had hope of overcoming zenit ... With the other teams in the draw leipzig was kinder . All in if and buts anyway we are just not good enough fact us if the board used a third of what's in the bank we would have had a decent cb gk and rb for last night's tie

I know mate in some ways it's a relief , concentrate wholly on league and Scottish cup playing our best 11 in every game and onto the treble, we were never going to win Europa league or get to final and as great as the Seville run was in 2003 it definitely cost us the league and gave the Huns a treble and to be fair in 2008 the Huns wee run to the final in the uefa cup probably cost them the league as well as we pulled back a 12 point gap

 

The anger and frustration usually subsides after a few days but still can’t believe how bad we were the other night.

Went out with not even a whimper. We had no structure at all in defence or attack.

 

Pfft aye right. Almost glad we didn’t have to play them.

 

Dodged Leipzig. We are the real winners here.

 

I would agree it would've been kinder but not by much, leipzeg just knocked out the current serie a leaders who play magic football. Mental the amount of good teams still left in the Europa.

 

The board need to start travelling with the away fans in Europe to connect back with the people that pay their wages.

 

It's still only been one full day lol but i still feel the same!
