Simeone needs to leave. He's done a fantastic job but his time is over.
Champions League 2022/23 - Matchday 3 - 4/5 October

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) are here to discuss three 1-1 draws.
The first got us knocked out of the FA Cup, the next puts us in a good position in our Round of 16 Europa League game, and the latest was an actual decent performance against Arsenal at Old Trafford.
All hopes for the season now rest on the Europa League - does Amorim have the squad to win it?
Simeone needs to leave. He's done a fantastic job but his time is over.
This.
He should have left after their last Liga title, they're moving backwards ever since.
Problem is, Frankfurt is quite strong in away games, they often struggle at home lately. Not beating them today could be costly.
You know, Frankfurt winning next week at Spurs would be a real coup and a twist in the group… not that it is out of reach, but I was just answering to @cyberman ‘s declaration that Spurs are out already…… pretty far-fetched for a forum heavily relying upon bookies’ odds, PL superiority complex and similar sense of entitlement?
Looks more like chest? Still not 100% sure, so i understand why the ref kept his first decision
That’s possibly the worst VAR decision I’ve seen to date. How on earth have they not given a penalty for that. There’s a video of a different angle which clearly shows him handle the ball.
Look at this clip. The last angle at the end of the video. It’s a blatant handball. How have VAR not given that?
Yeah especially when a certain Dutchman said how much he wants to play in Champions League
Feel like GK, metronome CM & ST are more important at the moment
That's a clear pen, but, you know, feck off barca.
Maybe they can pull some levers to buy tissues.

Yea could be ypu just see the wrist snap back however. It looks to strike both players wrists.
Why bother posting here then? Genuinely?
9 years ago? Not that impressive really, especially when the knock out games have been omitted.
Trying to sound something it’s not by using Musiala’s age as a metric. Hate stuff like this.
I get your point about comparisons like that, but 9 years of not losing (drawing one and winning the rest) a group match at home is "not that impressive"?
Not for me.
If it was that special there would be no need to exaggerate it by weirdly using his age alongside sensationalist wording like ‘let this sink in’.
It sank in. It’s a nice record to have. Thanks for stopping by.
Don't think any other team has a similar record though. I can remember all big teams losing home games on the group stages in recent history.
In my opinion, the only thing that could make sense is that the ball touches his head first and then his hand. Then it would not be a penalty kick. But presumably the VAR felt that there was no definite proof and that therefore the decision made on the pitch would stand. In other words, if the referee had given a penalty, VAR would not have overruled him.
Yes but they have removed arguably the most important games from the record (the knock out games)
Kind of makes it all a bit false
Outside of napoli looking great so far, Could club brugge be one of those surprise packages that comes along every few seasons and then has half of their team picked off by clubs in the bigger leagues in the summer?
Did they ? They specifically mentioned group stage games no ?
Yes. They only included group games over that period.
UEFAlona being truly and duly Ceferined with holier-than-thou Inter being rewarded for all the robberies-we-suffered-in-the-past is an Academy deserving movie for best script and best execution.
EDIT: all that without accounting for their 2010 tie and Xavi then playing now coaching Barcelona feeling robbed again.
I think they should go one further and include those games that Bayern won outside of the groups too. But only the ones they won obviously. For sinking in sakes.

It is a clear handball. The movement of the hand leaves no place for discussion.
I think so - think they might get to the last 8 or something. The manager will be on radars already too.
Reminds me of when Spurs had Kyle Walker and his backup was Kyle Walker-Peters.
I got excited at that rarity more than I should have. Every person I told didn’t share the same intrigue.
too true.Spurs have done it twice. They had Gazza and then somehow found a keeper called Gazzaniga.
I mean, come on. Getting silly now.
He basically put them on the map so I understand why they might be rather apprehensive at thought of them parting ways.
Maybe all the bad karma from Busquets diving and shithousing is coming home to roost....
i watched that several times during the match and honestly it was really hard to tell if that hit his arm or not
Feck yeah, come on Celtic!
It was hard from most angles except the last one which it was very conclusive. The VAR ref has access to all the angles.
The feck are they all wearing

Off-White have released a collaboration with them. Like Dsquared at City and Moncler at Inter.
Lots of VAR bullshit
Hilarious from Hart

VAR! Feck off Leipzeg!
