    12 foot tall Joe Hart shouldve been up as striker VVD style.

    So we only drew with Shakhtar twice cause they didn't want to beat us?

    What a load of *

    Unless some miracle happens in Madrid, we’ll exit with zero wins. Take a look back at the pre group predictions - that’s not what many expected to happen at all.

    Its been hugely disappointing.

    Exactly mate, we are definitely on par if not slightly better shaktar, we proved that over the 2 games but unfortunately they were far more clinical against the other 2 than we were,

    Second half was a tough watch.
    As good as he is, felt like Hatate made the wrong decision 9 times out of 10 tonight.

    They did beat us though? They beat us in the competition. They pumped us out of European football whilst giving themselves a shot at making the last 16.

    They were playing Champions League group stage football while we were playing "pretend you're a decent footballing side for 40-50 mins".

    Draw was the exact same as a win tonight for them. Both guarantees them EL football and leaves them needing a win to qualify for the CL. So of course they're going to celebrate.

    Definitely what I expected mate, Real Madrid European champions, who could bring on a sub not deemed good enough for a start who cost more than our whole team put together and then some , Leipzig who’s striker cost more than our whole team and you expected us to beating these sides, granted a thought we had a chance v shaktar, bit disappointed we didn’t beat them, but overall aye more or less what I expected

    That’s fair enough if that’s what you said before the campaign started mate. But the general consensus was we had a right chance against Leipzig and should’ve also been targeting 2 wins vs Shakhtar. The results haven’t been good enough tbh. Hopefully a big learning curve should we keep this squad together

    Judging by their managers reaction id say he was celebrating with them,id say ange would happily swap his team staying in europe rather than being knocked out and being happy with to stay in.

    Look i understand your point but in this instance giving the rewards for their efforts i think their justified in celebrating.

    Well yeah they have finished higher than us, but that doesn't take away from the fact your original statement was bollocks.

    I guess that boy who missed the sitter for them remembered they only wanted a draw so put it past the post

    They’ve been in the champions league group stages for the last 7 seasons mate our first time in 5 season s after a total rebuild job and a shambles to rebuild from and your expecting us to blow these teams away, fair enough love your optimism but doesn’t happen that easily

    We lack any cutting edge without McGregor in the middle. The ball was moving around far too slowly. I also don’t know why we insist on stopping the ball and taking a touch before passing it as well. There are rarely passes that overlap. Always left to right to the wing, back to the middle. Far too slow and predictable.

    Juranovic shat it when Mudryk ran at him.

    I also don’t like that we’ve persisted with Mooy in every game. He’s a smart player with good vision, and that’s fine for the league. But he’s so far off the pace of the game physically at this level.

    In fairness victory tonight probably wouldn’t have meant much with regards to qualifying. Madrid losing means they will play their full team and therefore makes it never a game we are getting anything from

    Aye would’ve also been good for belief and morale too. But with regards to Euro football after Christmas, think the result in Leipzig would’ve ended that anyway
