Champions League 2019/20 | Group D

Ronaldo has seen a goal drought but his general play this season has been amongst the best ive seen in his career, as especially under Allegri for instance.

Something about Fede when he plays against Atletico he looks like the player we all know he can be.

Bernardeschi came in on fire. Let's see what Higuain can do now coming in

De Ligt is such a beast

Love our defense

de Ligt is unironically a Top 5 CB at the moment.

Juventus cannot let him go under any circumstances.

i think this clears air any doubts on de ligt, he was killer and outstanding at the back for juve

Insane goal ffs. I'm surprised this thread is so quiet

all im going to say this de ligt was MOTM for me and wtf happened to atletico ... the post gabi-juanfran-godin-griezmann team is seriously playing like a confused team ...

and we (milan) almost got defrauded by ateltico with 55 million asking price for Angel Correa... his touches are piss poor, lack of decisiveness, sucks in final third, decision making....and he cant complain because he is getting decent playing time this season...

atletico posed no danger whatsoever to juve... only in final minutes that morata missed horribly but other than that they were so messy the whole game , nothing was developing from build up play

seriously atletico... you can have like about to retire gabi in midfield and they play SO damn better... with better ball control and possession

who i am i to judge but its what i saw of spectacular atletico from past years and now it is like ... there is nothing going on..

De Ligt comes second for me, Dybala MOTM

Besides the usual suspects, Bentancur deserves praise. Best match of his this season.

Atletico and Diego Simeone have run their course. They need some freshening up, badly.

If we lose to Leverkusen and Lokomotiv manages to beat Atleti, Atleti are out.

Kinda secretly hoping it happens tbh

Although I don't want us to lose, I'd be very pleased to see Atletico knocked out.

1 minute and Lokomotiv's GK saves a penalty of Trippier

Can't believe Gonzalo tried to pass it to Cristiano instead of shooting himself there

That is prime Higuain territory ffs

Lacklustre performance as expected. Created some good chances but still largely in 2nd gear.

Cuadrado has been horrible so far. Bernardeschi has been consistent in being trash as usual. Rabiot looks slow, lazy and takes too much time to release the ball. No wonder our midfield is such a horror show.

Demiral has been one of the few bright spots of the game. There's no way we should even think of selling him.

The understanding between Dybala and Cristiano that has grown the way it has this season is beautiful. CR being so zealous in his brilliant positioning gives little option to fellow attackers but to pass with him and Dybala assists with a drive pass from the left for a Ronaldo finisher.

Two goals in a row for CR as that should help his recent drop in performance.

Dybala assists yet again and this time to Higuain who with his left hits it from 18 yards to leave Leverkusen's goalkeeper with no chance. 0-2 and beautiful goal.


Second streaker in a row invades the pitch going after Cristiano smh

Dybala changed the game(unsurprisingly) when he came on but Demiral's my MOTM tonight.

This guy's a beast in the making. He's proving it for his NT and proved today he's more than worthy of starting more games.

I'll be pissed if we sell him to Milan or some other team for plusvalenza.

Demiral looks great. Beautiful that a backline of all 5 subs looked so good. Not sure I would call Demiral my motm though, as Sarri said, he is the most aggressive so he is the most visible.

It's clear he warrants more playing time. The competition at CB is just so high and even higher when Chiellini comes back. I hope he is patient.

Looks like the new Pepe. An aggressive madman with a lot of character and quality.

Was discussing CR7 in the other thread and brought to mind how he seems himself in the last two games. Confidence is never an issue but where his mind seems to be to have all the cogs working together to produce the goal-scoring machine he is.

He did well and truly lose form as a result of his injury where even his highly overlooked general play was missing but it does seem the amount of fun he has in playing with Dybala and Higuain who do not take away anything in what he likes to produce, does seem to be his most definite choice in what he likes to play with. Dybala who changes the forecast of the pitch whilst the understanding of CR7 and Higuain seems to be telepathic. Bernadeschi is just unrecognisable in every way that his fans may remember him for so should not start anymore but an attacking trident may just be the optimal choice to lead the attack and make up for the lack of midfield creativity that remains on the shoulders of Pjanic, to this day.
