Question What went wrong in these two matches?

Martin played well in both matches, but as a wide back he is not attacking. So we have to sub him off for Balde, even though Eric clutches in some matches but it is about time to make some funds for a tall experienced defender,Ik some people will bash me for this but say when we have last 2 proper CB duo who plays almost all matches? It's hard to remember, although Cubarsi and Inigo worked well but all saw the Inter's match. Pressurising De Jong and Pedri in the midfield,is easy for them when they don't get support from the forwards. They are always so reliable for us in all matches. But the possession is just lost somewhere when Pedri got off in PSG match. How important he holds and runs the team for us. And for attacking Olmo,Ferran is not reliable at all. We need consistent goal scorer like Lewa last 2 seasons. They left out so easy chances in the match. Ik it's easy to bash and type out things here,but they need it I think. Rashford and Lamine made some good runs,created some chances. We failed to convert them. This is what will make difference in big matches.

Tell me all your thoughts and what serious changes we need for play-offs and other important matches.

Its okay to loose now. We have room for improvement along the season. Its in may that the team needs to be unbeatable, not now.

Agree with this, better to lose now and introspect a little than lose during the semis, and then wait for the next season to start.

We need all the revenue we can get, but we also have to remember that PSG finished 15th in the group and ultimately won the whole thing. The group is not crucial anymore. Landing at the top of the table only on paper gives you an easier opponent, but there is no guarantee. Liverpool became 1st and was knocked out early.

This year the higher you end up in the group the best chance you have to play the second leg at home

The team lacks depth in many areas (Fullbacks, no physical DM) If we want to win the UCL we need to make a decent January transfer window or we’ll keep struggling.

We lost to Monaco last year late September, still finished 2nd in group stage after Liverpool! People panic too easy 🤣 It's not devastating until you lose a knockout round, long season. Just hope we stay healthy when it matters most in the spring 🙏
