Happy that once again rent-a-team is gone. Congrats on your Ligue 1 title, Neymar
Champions League Round of 16 (13th Feb - 14th Mar)
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
Rather Madrid go through. Would rather they play Liverpool/City etc if they draw either one, rather than PSG and their bottling ways.
Why hasn't Cavani been sent off already? He's been pecking the ref all game.
Not even a little bit tbh
1-2 Casemiro
Real are taking the piss. They should have scored 4-5 goals by now. Great referee, making himself respected
PSG are stuck at the Ligue 1 problem.
Madrid are fantastic at killing teams off, once they get that lead they just seem to then destroy teams
The European Goldenboy subbed off for Lassana Diarra
Even Real Madrid is recovering the flat 4-4-2. What's the world coming to? Fortunately, A.Pereira is doing a workshop on it for us at Valencia.
Pastore's total lack of giving a feck off the ball is pretty spectacular. Lost the ball on the halfway line, half-arsedly followed Carvajal back to the edge of the box and then just let him run on into the box for the goal. Spent the rest of the time strolling around with his head down.
What's the deal with having "Lass" on your shirt?
Like half his first name?
Like half his first name?
Our time with Ancelotti was the only thing making this seem remotely possible.
Cavani and Marcelo having a chat. Not giving a feck the games going on.
One oil club out. Not shedding a tear.
Very much a case of emperor's new clothes when it comes to PSG.
Every time i watch them in this competition i just don't get it. I don't get what the fuss is about. Why they're always so hyped up. They're shite and always choke. Their mentality is shocking and they're so bloody spineless.

And clearly the solution to go to the next step isn't money
You know you're getting the piss taken out if you when Sergio Ramos tries a 40 yarder
RAmos
Flat 4-4-2 has been the default formation of most Spanish teams for years. Atleti, Valencia, Villarreal, Espanyol, several small teams... even Barcelona ditched their sacred 4-3-3 for a flat 4-4-2
Qatar should have bought Atletico.
Ramos now holds the record for most cards received in the CL (37), beating Paul Scholes.
Haha sorry mate, it’s just that predicting Ronaldo would score a goal, and then quoting yourself after he scored, should carry an infraction with it
Think their league being so easy does not help them with mentality. It doesn't toughen them up.
Modric on the bench seems to be saying "And I didn't even have to come on, LOL"
You have to say it's a bit unlucky to draw Madrid of all the possible teams after winning the group but they should've put in a better fight definitely.
Perfectly said.
Yeah, I used even because of Barcelona.
Haven't seen much of Mbappe this year. So he's not all that or what? Did Madrid dodge a bullet not signing him?
Would have been nice for Ings to score that.
My thoughts too. Since these clubs coming about I've gained more respect for the likes of Real.
Ah Pastore, another caf wunderkind who turned out to be bleh.
Yep, big names, easy league, overpower the French teams with depth and talent but you actually have to be a proper team with some tenacity about you at this level and they are devoid of it. Di Maria, Draxler, Pastore,Veratti, Rabiot, all very nice and talented players who melt down mentally when the heat comes on. Neymar with all his demands and tantrums, what a group of clowns.
Probably go big for Pogba in the Summer.
I am. I'm in a pub showing both. The only seat I could get was facing the Liverpool game. I've now conquered another seat with main view of Madrid and a side glance of Liverpool. Haven't been watching the Liverpool game since halftime though
Empty team.
Lol doubt it, Kane wouldn’t pass half as much, or be happy to play such a second string role.
. I’d say if Kane ends up there Ronny will be gone.Bale looks a totally pointless player at the moment. No confidence or injuries really taken their toll?
P.S.G. are just hopeless. Wasting all that amount of money and not winning the Champions League
Good save from Casillas to a Ings header.
