David Hytner was our man in the Metropolitano tonight. Here’s his report. Clickity click! Thanks for reading this MBM.
Ralf Rangnick takes his turn to talk to BT. “I don’t know if I rescued it, but after the performance in the first half, it could only get better. What we played in the first half, I still can’t believe what we did. We played without conviction, without all the necessary aggression, that’s why we really struggled. Second half we did better, and with another ten minutes, we might have even won the game. But we have to play better. I was very disappointed with our performance in the first half. We were far too apprehensive, and didn’t take any risks, without any deep runs or verticality. Anthony Elanga is playing as if his dream has come true. I wish a few other players would take him a role model, not because he’s doing everything right, but he’s enjoying himself on the pitch, and that’s what it’s all about. Football is an important ball game for the media and our supporters, but it’s still a ball game and you have to enjoy yourself on the pitch. This is what I wish us to do in the future, and when we play them again in a couple of weeks.”
