UCL Round of 16 - First Legs - Feb 18 - 26

feel for Spalleti - in this situation - most of the game-plan thrown out of the window
 
I went to get food thinking that it would be a fairly cagey opening to come back to 2 missed goals. :(
 
Arshavin off after 15 minutes, either injured or somebody noticed he's plain shit and got on the pitch accidentally.
 
The two faces of Borussia Dortmund. Absolutely no urgency in the Bundesliga and in the CL they press the opposition to death.

Its also hilarious that around 1000 BVB supporter completely sing the home support out of their own stadium.

Second season running they've got no interest in the league and so can go all out in Europe. Milan used to make a real habit of this.
 
It helps that Zenit have been pants defensively (as Dortmund haven't really been that special going forward apart from a few glimpses), but Dortmund have pressed well. Swamping the opposition so they have no option but to run it out of play or lose possession.

This is the result of having an opponent you can´t realistically beat in a league scenario, because said opponent can destroy half the league with just their B team. You concentrate on the competitions you may be able to win. This worked out last season because even while half arsing a handful of games they still were comfortably a top 3 team. This season the general competiton got stronger and the injuries make them suffer.
 
Pretty embarrassing performance by Zenit. Dortmund have shut them out well but they've shown hardly any urgency apart from the last 2 minutes of the half.
 
Schalke are terrible. I expect you to beat them by 5 or 6 with Ronaldo grabbing a hattrick...
Not sure if serious or serious jinx attempt.

I expect us to get a result as well, but hasn't Schalke's form improved quite a bit lately?
 
The system Porto had must have been perfect for Hulk as every time i have seen him since he left he has been rubbish.
 
Shit, if Papapasatoaoatohapohulos is injured, who do you have left to throw into CB?

CB talent Marian Sarr..... but its okay, "Sparta" is on his feet again.

Now, can these Russian cúnts please stop their extremely hard and unescessary fouls?
