No idea why he starts for France. They have like 5 CBs better than him. Is he even better than Zouma?
He’s been in great form for most of the season. Having a mare here but that doesn’t undo the rest of his performances.

The atmosphere sounds so shit

How can you be 3-0 up in a CL quarter final vs Bayern and be this subdued

I never took to Upamecano after he was part of that Leipzig team that unexpectedly got drubbed by us 5-0 at OT.

Its more than a little wild that Upamecano have not been subbed off by Tuchel.

Oh I know. Just thinking that they are the only ones from that side that can win a one off final. Madrid or Chelsea have no hope against City or do any of the other 3 on the other side of the draw. Napoli have little hope but still a bit for me.

Hopefully Arsenal can hold on in the league or ourselves or Brighton can do something in the cup but they have to be favourites to do the treble.
Of course the team emerging from that bracket will start the final as the favorite and yet a final is always tricky (if you are not Real Madrid :lol: )

This disasterclass was coming from Upamecano. Thought he looked dodgy for France in the World Cup and got away with a few, one in particular against England.
It looked like he finally figured it out this season, he'd strung together a bunch of really good performances after the WC for us. This collapse today came out of nowhere.

He’s alright but he’s always had these brain fart games in him. Looks like he isn’t capable of keeping a cool head when things start to go wrong in a game and he just ends up compounding his mistake with further mistakes.

Never seen Upamecano have a good game. Always looks a liability. Bayern have no cutting edge anyway

United minus the Glazers
Imagine if we had Upamecano And Maguire at the back - will be quite the circus and a neutral’s delight

Here's praying for a miracle at the Allianz. Stranger things have happened.
