speeeeeeedie Posted March 16, 2022 Author Posted March 16, 2022 Toothless Man U are out of Europe. They were undone by a typical Simeone Atletico performance; nick a goal then defend, feign injuries, and waste time to disrupt the game. The press aren't being kind to them today. BBC's McNulty - Man U fail again Benfica beat Ajax too. Quote

speeeeeeedie Posted March 18, 2022 Author Posted March 18, 2022 The quarter final draw took place earlier which also dictates the semi final pairings. We have; Side 1 Chelsea v. Real Madrid Man City v. Atletico Madrid Side 2 Villareal v. Bayern Munich Benfica v. Liverpool Quote

AllRoverAsia Posted April 3, 2022 Posted April 3, 2022 If you have a spare 25 minutes this is an explanation of the depressing future for the Champions League and World Cup. Quote
speeeeeeedie Posted April 7, 2022 Author Posted April 7, 2022 The quarter final first legs are over. Liverpool and Real Madrid both won 3-1 away. Liverpool could have been 5 up at half time yet were lucky not to be pegged back to 2-2 before scoring late, and then missing another sitter. Chelsea carried on where they left off against Brentford. They weren't at the races. Benzema scored 2 class headers, and was given a gift for his 3rd. Lukaku needs to leave Chelsea quickly. His game is not suited to Chelsea's style. Villareal and City both won 1-0 at home. De Bruyne managed to nick one meaning that Simeone's men have to attack next week. Bayern should win but Villareal are a well drilled crew. Quote
roverandout Posted April 12, 2022 Posted April 12, 2022 Madrid are a facking disgrace. Diving and rolling around at the slightest touch. Tuchel made a massive error taking off werner for pulisic. Werner had them all over the place. Pulisic is a mediocre player. James was outstanding all game. City or Liverpool will slaughter this Madrid team 1 Quote

Pulisic is a streaky player. He can play but doesn't have consistency. Alonso's disallowed goal was harsh, but Chelsea can't expect to go through after making the mistakes they did over both legs. Villareal are through too. They hammered Bayern at home and should have been more than 1 up yet it took a late counter attacking goal to seal it for them. 1 Quote
Moderation Lead K-Hod Posted April 13, 2022 Moderation Lead Posted April 13, 2022 Atlético Madrid are an absolute disgrace. They were determined to make the beautiful game a very ugly one tonight. 1 Quote
simongarnerisgod Posted April 13, 2022 Posted April 13, 2022 was a good game,proper old school european cup tie with added foreign s**thousery😊,don`t know about anyone else,but i ignore the pointless group matches,it only gets exciting when the knockout stage arrives,i don`t expect uefa will ever see it from a fans point of view but it would be great if they scrapped the stupid europa league and had one massive unseeded european cup ,two legs the winners goes through,everyone from cup winners to the first 4 places in their league,would be epic imo 2 Quote
roverandout Posted April 13, 2022 Posted April 13, 2022 Htf was Felipe whinging. He could have had a straight red for the tackle alone. Savic is an absolute disgrace. I'm glad 2 English teams are through. I can see city hammering real and Liverpool beating villareal Quote

Do you realise Villarreal have beaten Bayern Munich, Juventus and Atalanta? I wouldn't presume a Liverpool victory. 2 Quote
AllRoverAsia Posted April 14, 2022 Posted April 14, 2022 (edited) That was one of the very few times that I have been wanting a City win. I think Felipe and Savic need mental health check-ups. Probably Simione too. Nutters. Having said that their and their fans passions are something to envy and it must be a good ride if you support AM. There will be fall out from what went on late in the game and after. I would at least expect Savic to get a ban. Edited April 14, 2022 by AllRoverAsia 1 Quote
speeeeeeedie Posted April 14, 2022 Author Posted April 14, 2022 The semi finals are set; Man City v. Real Madrid Liverpool v. Villareal Atletico ruffled City then lost the plot. Not surprising really. They way Atletico play is impressive, but I hate the way they act. Liverpool were coasting then switched off. They did the same against Inter Milan in the last round. Quote
speeeeeeedie Posted April 27, 2022 Author Posted April 27, 2022 City v. Real was an absolute cracker. City should have been 4-0 up before Benzema scored his first. City go to Madrid with a 1 goal advantage. The same as the last round. Can they stop Real from scoring? They are the better team, but will they get it right? Quote
G Somerset Rover Posted April 27, 2022 Posted April 27, 2022 You’d have to say Benzema is head and shoulders above anyone else in world football at the minute (perhaps his compatriot Mbappe aside). The belief he gives his teammates is incredible. 2 Quote
Oldgregg86 Posted April 27, 2022 Posted April 27, 2022 So the latest is from the 24/25 season the champions league semi finals will be one leg only and played in one city in the same week as the final very similar to the nations league finals. What are peoples thoughts ? Quote

What are peoples thoughts ? Awful - the semi finals are regularly as good as football gets and the two legs (with no away goals as it should be) is the way to go. Sounds like a money spinner to get it somewhere neutral (like Wembley semi-finals for the fa cup) 2 Quote

What are peoples thoughts ? Is it from that season and your name is Man Utd or of similar 'standing' and you finish outside of your leagues qualifying spots you still get into the CL based on your previous 'history' in the CL... Rules are changing to something like that. Backdoor SuperLeague. 1 Quote

The two legs adds drama. Was the old UEFA cup final 2 legged? 3 Quote

Moderation Lead K-Hod Posted May 4, 2022 Moderation Lead Posted May 4, 2022 I’d sooner City won than Read Madrid or Liverpool, but sometimes you’ve just got to admire how Real manage to dig out victories out of nowhere, time after time. 2 Quote
