Stewart Robson

Reinder was making forward runs and then couldn't get back.

Rico Lewis kept on making forward runs and didn't get back.

If you're going to go and press the ball when the goalkeeper's got it, and I understand that and the midfield players are pressing on, when the goalkeeper kicks it beyond you, you have to recover.

But every time the ball went forward into the front players, the midfield players of Bodo Glimp got there first.

And the Man City midfield players were too slow in reacting.

That's just poor play all round by the manager and the players.

Frank Leboeuf.

Yeah, I don't think they did it in the first half, although they were leading in the first half.

They scored the early goal.

I'm trying to be positive, Robbo.

Yeah, I'm going to come to the positive bit.

But what Monaco tried to do was play and send their full-backs high and be a team that are going to go and attack Real Madrid.

But what it did leave was them open at the back.

And if ever there's players that can make the most of that, it's Vini Junior and it's Belli and making runs from midfield and Mbappe just running down the sides of people.

The energy of Valverde when he broke forward.

Camavinga playing at left-back, broke forward on several occasions.

If there was a side to pick to play against Real Madrid in this game, it was Monaco, the way they played.

Then it wasn't like Levante who sat back and said, go on, how are you going to break us down in this first half?

Against Levante, I don't think Real Madrid hardly had a shot in the first half because they didn't know how to break Levante down.

Today, it was made much easier for them.
