Dayot Upamecano’s dramatic performance during the Champions League clash between Manchester City and Bayern Munich is also in Football talk not left untouched. The defender of the German record champion was shooting frequently and was partly responsible for his team’s 3-0 defeat. The zeperd makes it a hell of a job for Bayern to reach the last four of the billion dollar ball.

“I’ve never seen a player who gets paid and played so badly”, Hans Kraay junior immediately comes to terms with Upamecano’s performance. The Frenchman made major mistakes, especially after the break, and personally introduced Bernardo Silva’s 2-0. “He did everything wrong. Players at a high level can also play dramatically. He can do it. I also see him playing fantastically with the national team, so those trainers must not be crazy? We also saw him very well play against the Dutch.”

Hans Kraay thinks that City is the big favorite for the final victory in the Champions League. The English have been chasing the coveted trophy for years, but have not succeeded so far. Erling Braut Haaland has to make the difference. “We all know that he can head, is fast and has a great left leg. But there is also such a beastly drive,” said Kraay. “I don’t think he lives two-under-one-hood, but I think his neighbor has to get in very quickly in the morning, otherwise he will bite a piece out of your calf. It really is a hunter. A panther. A prehistoric man. ”

Kees Kwakman, who was also a guest in the football talk show, especially enjoyed Nathan Aké. “That’s not normal. That’s just a Manchester City player. You always had the idea that you just had to see it at City, they play very different football. But also as a left back. So good, so solid. I didn’t expect this from him at City, I’ll be honest,” said Kwakman, who enjoyed the game anyway. “I like that you see them put high pressure, but that they can also collapse. Bayern even had more ball possession than City, that doesn’t happen often. The quality is splashing.”
