Deary me.
Right?
I'm convinced he's either not watching the game or expecting Madrid to blow them away 5-0
Madrid are a throwback pass and move team. Really good to watch
One more goal from Madrid will kill the tie off and also make Boehly look like a fool.
No Thiago Silva?
4:0 incoming.
4:0 incoming.
Silva is about 48 and coming back from a long spell out injured. Change of formation to bring a body in midfield on.
"Help us Obi-Carlo, you're our only hope."
Anguissa sent off for Napoli.
Anguissa
I think they’ve been good. Just overworking it in the final 3rd.
They’ve barely got out of 2nd gear the whole game and nor have they had to. It’s been easy. But because they haven’t played the flashiest, quickest most intricate stuff, they’re deemed to have played poorly.
They’ve got the job done with ease. That’s playing well in my eyes.
At least under potter they were creating chances
Yep, super movement, minding the ball, winning individual battles.
They’ve been better than Chelsea but Chelsea are barely even a football team. But over the season they haven’t been great and I’d give us a good shout at beating them over two legs.
No, they're completely different teams in Europe. Barcelona have been the opposite in recent years, flaky and poor in pressure situations, which is why they haven't won any European trophies since 2015. In that time Real Madrid have won 4 Champions Leagues.
Real Madrid are on the verge of winning 20 of their last 23 Champions League knockout ties, whereas we haven't been in the CL semi-finals since 2011.
Probably because he's not a new manager for them.
I agree.
I agree they haven't been at their best. Pretty workmanlike performance today. Probably only 1-0 against 11 men.Right?
I'm convinced he's either not watching the game or expecting Madrid to blow them away 5-0
Why is Mount not being sent off? Is there no VAR?
Reckless stuff by Mason Mount, that.
Poor from the ref
Clearly just a pair of RM fanboys.Right?
I'm convinced he's either not watching the game or expecting Madrid to blow them away 5-0
Maybe if we somehow convinced them we’re actually getafe in disguise. In the champions league they’re a different animal
This has honestly felt a bit like a training session, no disrespect.
Kova looks terrible today. Just poor performances all over the pitch
I swear every Newcastle game is on tv
That Casemiro red card looks more and more stupid every match I watch. Happens all the time and not even a yellow or review
Yes, been pretty biased towards Milan tonight. Not sure how Leao got away with that corner-flag breaking and he has been falling for Theo simulations all night.
But not terrible like the other poster has been saying
'Great' is overstating it but 2-0 is about right overall. It's a routine win, if that makes sense for a CL quarter-final.
Fans singing "Modric, Modric".
Which one? Cos this could apply for both he received
Mind, the point with Madrid is they always had/have another ace under their hand, which they use when in need.
Not terrible yes. Just not impressive.
Referee has absolutely screwed Napoli here
Champions League thread?
Jeez that ref in the Milan-Napoli game is awfully biased towards Milan.
That announcer in Madrid sounds like he should be presenting a children’s show.
I'm impressed because they've played some great football and it's been very professional first leg display. If we do similar tomorrow I'll be impressed with us
Bad decision by vinicius.
Toocameny coming on according to the commentator.
