They’re trying to play out from the back and none of them look comfortable.

Imagine if Maguire had done that.

Just shows that everyone makes errors.

Just in case anyone missed it. I don't like Mount.

Serves them right. Why the feck are Madrid aimlessly and pointlessly playing the ball at the back with no attempt to go forward?

Pep started this playing around at the back nonsense and it makes no sense. Just boot the ball for a throw in and start the play from there if you are being pressed.

Nothings actually changed for Madrid, they still need 2.

I know playing from the back is great and all and it can really improve attacking play. But fecking hell I don’t know why teams do that shit, you could tell they weren’t getting anywhere, why not just boot it clear?
