The ref needs to grow some fecking balls and award a penalty for that shit.
Malaga
The Argie-Brazilian connection too much for Valencia to handle...
Malaga are a decent side who could easily knock Porto out and go through.
It's outrageous that Commons got booked for getting shoved around. He was literally just trying to stand his ground while the other guy barged and wrestled him. Ref bottle job and as usual the officials behind the line do feck all.
Really impressed with celtic so far, if they keep that up second half theres definitely a goal or two in it for them.
What about Malaga?
veratti's passing radar is off but his class and intelligence is obvious.
is he bigger than giovinco?

That MacDonalds advert was worse than AIDS.
i think porto will do them
I fear that they could now get caught on the break as they really will have to open up to get something from this. Can't go to Turin behind.
Lavezzi and Lucas on the counter is too much pace to handle for Valencia's slow defenders
Lucas Shmookas
On another note, Ibrahimovic, even whilst on a team that's supposedly shit without him, still can't put up an outstanding performance in the CL knockouts. He's easily been the worst of the PSG attacking quartet.
PSG isn't shit without Ibrahimovic. He's their main man, but have plenty of other excellent players.
God I wish we could have a 1st half like PSG did....2-0 on the road....already puts a team in an incredidily good position to go through.
Valencia would have to do A LOT in the next 135 minutes in order to somehow scrape through this tie. I don't see it happening, not that I would mind it.

They need to keep putting hooper on the keeper, they'll get a penalty from it EVENTUALLY.
Canales and Haedo Valdez subbed on for Valencia... 
still no DM
still no DMEnjoying both games so far, played at breakneck speed... Celtic unlucky so far, yes Juve perhaps had a gameplan to sit back but that is not usually their style, Celtic have pressed very high and robbed Juve of alot of possession. If Celtic had a decent striker, they'd be level or leading.
Juve need to do more on the counter.

thats complete bollocks though, i love how people who know nothing about scottish football believe this myth that their not good enough, would birmingham or wolves get this far in the champions league? they're there for a reason
Yeah I agree they cant go to Italy behind or the tie is over.
Ibra plays like he doesn't give a feck, he plays at a walking pace.Even the usual sort of lazy Pastore is busting his guts tonight
Hence the 'supposedly', I've certainly heard a lot of that around this forum. I don't agree as you can tell
At least he knows how to play football. The Valencia attackers act as if they have only just seen a football and don't know what to do with it. My God, even Rennes or Toulouse would beat this Valencia.
I forgot about them, does this mean that I can't going back to saying that the Prem is better than La Liga yet?
we can hope Milan will somehow knock out Barca...but it wont happen.
Yeah, well that's not even their biggest problem tonight... Valverde went all Emery on them; 3 CMs, no holding midfielder. It's no surprise they've conceded, only maybe that they haven't scored themselves.
Go on Celtic!
Well we haven't played a play-off game the last 18 months and those games are the only ones that count, so that's a moot point.
agree. Scottish football has some crap teams...but that certainly does not apply to Celtic.
They're the only ones that count? Why was everyone around here so annoyed at the loss to Basel last season then?
Celtics left back seems a damn good player.
Celtic are having brilliant spells of possession but just seem to be lacking that final ball.
Not too impressed with Hooper (though I hardly watch any Celtic games) and Commons, though he gets into good positions, is very wasteful.
Samaras on!
Samaras on!
Vidal has had an absolute stinker so far tonight, probably the worst I've ever seen him.
We were linked with him before his injury. Hasn't been as good as since, from what i can gather.
Was very good before he had a long term injury. Good to see he's not regressed as a player.
