2024 UEFA Champions League final — Borussia Dortmund vs Real Madrid — Wembley, Sat 1 June 20:00 BST

[BenitoSTARR]

Love how people have such ingrained hatred towards a player that they jump in with a knowing and dismissive comment before they’ve even seen the replay.

Great insight lads

I welcomed you to the set up? Don’t quote me with those sodium based life forms.

Unless Mbappe wins the Euros, next Ballon d'or is Vini

 

[MrMarcello]

Where does Mbappe fit in this Real side? Does Vinicious play on the left?

 

[Atheist]

Winning the CL without 2 key defenders all season. Next time someone tells you you can’t play good football and win things with injuries, take it with a pinch of salt.

If you didn't look at the score and went off the faces of some of the Madrid fans in the crowd, you'd think they were losing. cnuts are about to win the biggest club competition and some were just sitting there emotionless after the second goal.

 

[RopersReturn]

This has been hugely disappointing.

 

[mu4c_20le]

Dortmund have bottled the game, and Real have finished it when necessary, as usual. Nothing lucky about it.

Nah losing one game isn't bottling it. They had a great season.

Reus sub was pure nostalgia.

 

[Fooza]

Congratz to Mbappe on winning his CL next year, just want to say that early on.

 

[Cheech Wizard]

they are some killer braids from Militao, barber’s made a cross on his head.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

This has been hugely disappointing.

They have been the last few years.

 

[kouroux]

English broadcasters are in love with Jude

 

[KirkDuyt]

It must be nice supporting Real.

Must it? Always winning sounds very boring.

 

[NoLogo]

At this stage we should just rename the competition into "Real-Madrid-Cup-just-occasionally-not."

 

[BenitoSTARR]

Where does Mbappe fit in this Real side? Does Vinicious play on the left?

Either takes Rodrygo’s spot or literally just plays CF.

 

[Ahmer Baig]

No one to blame but Dortmund themselves for not taking chances in first half.

 

[SilentWitness]

Unless Mbappe wins the Euros, next Ballon d'or is Vini

Bellingham if he wins the Euros.

Must it? Always winning sounds very boring.

Winning is never boring.

We had way worse injuries than Madrid and way worse players coming in to cover those injuries

Depends if Germany wins the Euros, can easily see him being considered for it then.

McCoist: ‘You have to score when you’re on top’.

Posts that sound sexual but aren’t contender

 

[Red Indian Chief Torn Rubber]

In a ucl final 22 men chase the ball and in the end Real Madrid win.....

He had the time to take the extra touch, block or not it was simply piss poor not to score from there.

If that’s the level of composure from your star player then I stand by my comment, England are fecked.

 

[GlasgowCeltic]

MOTM Camavinga

 

[DomesticTadpole]

We had way worse injuries than Madrid and way worse players coming in to cover those injuries

Also we don't have Carlo.

 

[MrMarcello]

Either takes Rodrygo’s spot or literally just plays CF.

Thought he hates play down the middle. Are they sticking with this 4-3-1-2 or whatever with Bellingham off the forwards?

 

[That_Bloke]

Bellingham if he wins the Euros.

Not in a million years.

 

[Ronaldo's ego]

It was there for Dortmund.

 

[sizzling sausages]

Where does Mbappe fit in this Real side? Does Vinicious play on the left?

Rodrygo becomes a rotation player again instead of a starter. Or Bellingham goes further back.

There's ways to fit both Mbappe and Vini Jr into the team without restricting either of them.

 

[Skills]

Where does Mbappe fit in this Real side? Does Vinicious play on the left?

Ancelotti will figure it out. The way he did with Bellingham and then the Bale/Di Maria/Ronaldo conundrum.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

He had the time to take the extra touch, block or not it was simply piss poor not to score from there.

If that’s the level of composure from your star player then I stand by my comment, England are fecked.

If we are relying on a 20 year old we are fecked.

 

[hasanejaz88]

Reus sub was pure nostalgia.

Better than watching Adeyemi feck up another chance.

 

[ArtetasHair]

Nah losing one game isn't bottling it. They had a great season.

A CL final and you're still complaining about Arsenal.

Though tbf the same as me coming on a United forum and posting this

 

[Scarlett Dracarys]

Must it? Always winning sounds very boring.

And the alternative is even more depressing

 

[The Hilton]

Amazing how RM have looked second best for most of the CL, yet have found a way at every stage. Incredible resilience.

 

[antohan]

Spent the entire game thinking they could use Mbappé... except that I can't see how to fit him in with Vini.

Looks like us collecting left forwards for years, albeit of a different standard.

 

[Atheist]

We had way worse injuries than Madrid and way worse players coming in to cover those injuries

That doesn’t justify finishing in 8th place.

 

[The Sad Clown]

Sorry asking again but how was the Discovery Plus stream for people this evening. Mine was terrible. As bad as the worst kind of illegal one.

 

[Andycoleno9]

Where does Mbappe fit in this Real side? Does Vinicious play on the left?

Mbappe will play either striker in 433 or instead Rodrygo i guess.

 

[Gio]

Where does Mbappe fit in this Real side? Does Vinicious play on the left?

Can see two solutions. Either Vinicius left, Mbappe central and Rodrygo or Valverde right in a hybrid attack/midfield role. Or Bellingham as a withdrawn 10 behind a front two of Vinicius and Mbappe.
