About time we face facts, regardless of management, when up against a good team we cannot compete at all. Speed, movement, passing - we are nowhere near. Our players are just not good enough on the ball and have to beat 3 men each on crazy runs if we are to score.
Exactly like the Ajax game so can't even say its the management. Only reason we did any better towards the end is because Leipzig began sitting back more after their goal. Tbh, best thing for us would have been as early a Leipzig goal as possible.
Hopeful for the return leg but extremely unlikely. Thoughts?
Face facts: we can't compete

If we can play a full 90 minutes like the last 20 mins today, we can win this tie.

The problem is Lamela and Ndombele (the players who changed the game) will probably both be injured now.

Well...... what can I say

palmers, when you play such cowardly football for so long you won’t compete. Not sure how else to explain that, it’s obvious what was meant.

Hi thought you were trying to say we suck or something
In which case you’d have been right.
I don’t full blame Jose, think we’d have had far more going forward if NDombele had started

It was his decision to bench him and play the way you did. It’s just his negative mindset, I don’t know why people still try and make excuses for it. Spurs got away with it and they are still in the tie, but they were at home against a team suffering with injuries problems themselves, let’s not pretend it was something he’d been forced into doing.

In his post match interview Jose said that Ndom and Lam were not fit enough to start so he can't be blamed for that.
If Winks fancies an England spot in the summer he needs to show alot more in the big games. I've always liked him but he's now 24 and he hasn't kicked on like I hoped he would.

Ndombele not fit enough to play full game and Lamela literally just came back from injury and not capable of full 90 mins. Agreed, things improved when they came came on but also Leipzig protecting their lead and sat back.
Some of our fans..faack me
