Fans expressed frustration with the UEFA Champions League Official Team of the Season - complaining about the absence of several stars from the competition.
Manchester City won their first European championship on Saturday night after beating Inter Milan 1-0 in Istanbul.
Pep Guardiola lifted the trophy for the first time in 12 years, when his Barcelona side beat Manchester United at Wembley in 2011.
After the match, as usual, UEFA announced the team of the season selected by the technical observer committee.
The formation features a 4-3-3 formation, led by Man City star Erling Haaland, whose 12 goals put him at the top of the scoring charts. He is one of seven City players to feature in this squad, along with recent goalscorers Rodri, John Stones, Bernardo Silva, Kyle Walker, Ruben Dias and Kevin De Bruyne.
The other finalists, Inter had two representatives, with defensive duo Alessandro Bastoni and Federico Dimarco both selected.
And the team only features players from three clubs, with Real Madrid's Vinicius Junior and Thibaut Courtois completing the typical squad.
However, as with any team pick like this, you can't please everyone - and many fans responded to comments to explain why other players should be select.
Fans react to Champions League Team of the Season
On Instagram, one fan begged for Inter goalkeeper's choice, Andre Onana:
"Onana's eight clean sheets [this season] is a joke."
Another said another goalkeeper should have been in:
"Ederson stole."
While another fan added:
"Acerbi before Bastoni, Gundogan before Stones and Dias will be my captain."
There were even more shouts, with fans calling for the presence of AC Milan striker Rafael Leao and Inter midfielder Nicolo Barella. Meanwhile, on Twitter, a Man City fan said:
"It was Courtois who stopped us five times? Ederson conceded less than that in the whole game [four] with a 90% save rate. And won."

Another added:
"Very well deserved for Man City but I think Gundogan should have been there."
And the third cried out:
"No Akanji?"
