The game on Wednesday would be an easy game, whether it would be an easy game for Chelsea or an easy game for Bayern i donβt know
Easy game for Bayern today. We were toothless upfront aside Palmer.

This game will serve as a reminder to the boys that they are back dining with the big boys.
It should hurt them, then motivate them to improve.
We start from low to high.

β’Same old storyβ¦ individual mistakes killing us again. Been happening since Pochβs time, when the whole revamp left us with no experience, no leadership, no chemistry. Cost us early last season in PL, cost us again tonight.
β’Yes, under Maresca thereβs growth, you can see the identity building but this was our first proper test at the top level and the nerves showed. Bayern are used to this stage, we arenβt. They looked calm, we looked shaky.
β’That second half was painful to watch. Pressing all over the place with zero co-ordination. And then the errors switching off on the free-kick retake, a silly penalty, sloppy giveaways under pressure...you just canβt do that at this level.
β’Hope the boys have seen the glimpse of how cruel this competition can be.Still early days. Benfica at home? No excuses. Must. Win.

If we can actually help Caicedo and get a competent partner for him we wonβt be seeing James in midfield. its simple as that, Enzo is playing because of his price tag
We have but he always ends up in the hospital because his girlfriend is a nurse.

Olise is the first attacker against Cucurella i can hold my hand up and say has completely cooked Cucurella. The fact that he couldβve been our player is what angers me. He has every single thing. You know youβre in deep trouble when your wingerβs best attributes are work rate and running.

It may sound like a dig, but in reality, it's a warning.
We ride adversity then we thrive on comebacks.
Because we are us.

Summary of Enzo Marescaβs pre-Manchester United press conference:
Bayern loss: Tough UCL opener, some good moments but room to improve; βwe donβt like to lose.β
Raheem & Axel situation: Understands itβs difficult for players not in the squad; club ensures they can train properly.
On Ruben Amorim: Rates him highly, calls him a βmagnificent managerβ despite challenges.
On Man United: Old Trafford is always a tough place; Unitedβs struggles make them more motivated to win.
Squad fitness: Cole Palmer βokayβ but some players still to be assessed; Marc Guiu back and expected to be used; Garnacho ready to start.
Young talents: EstevΓ£o and Palmer can play wide or as a 10; praises their quality and versatility.
Pressure: Feels pressure every game, not just after losses; Bayern, PSG, Barcelona are among toughest away fixtures.
