Can't imagine we'll get a result, but who knows. New manager bump maybe?
 
At least our interim trainer looks like he can kill you with his bare hands.
 
What a strike that was from Olise, great pass from the break from Upamecano as well.

No keeper was stopping that shot.
 
Unstoppable. Only quibble you could have as a Celtic fan is he dribbled it off the defender’s knee
 
Paixao is having an amazing game so far. We're actually better than Milan.

Gimenez is having an absolute stinker :lol:
 
Good use of VAR there. Looked like a clear penalty at first viewing but the other angle clearly showed Upamecano got to the ball first.

The time they took still was unacceptably long and it seemed like the VAR almost wanted to push the referee into giving a penalty with how he just showed the first perspective again and again, the referee talking back and forth with VAR before finally being shown another angle.
 
We should tape this game, send the tape to SA and tell them they can sign Paixao for 60 million.

Yea it seemed weird that if they last angle was shown initially then it wouldn't even be a discussion for a penalty. That being said, I think they were first checking a potential offside because that was what was called by the ref first.
 
Why are these Dutch cnuts singing YAWN too? Come on Milan, get that equaliser.
 
Our season is just mental. Rubbish in the league, best CL campaign ever.

This Milan isn' exactly Sacchi level, but never thought we'd beat em
 
Feyenoord, Dortmund, Celtic, Liverpool - all have fans singing YAWN (perhaps few other clubs?). Who started it?

I think I remember reading once that Liverpool started it. Dortmund acknowledge that they got it off them, another German club, Mainz, have also used it I think. Coincidentally both of Klopp's former clubs :lol:
 
FC Twente as well.
What’s the point in having same song as so many other clubs? So at Twente-Feyenoord game both sets of fans sing it?

All cnuts.
I don’t like those clubs much either.

Guess then Klopp always saw Liverpool as type of club to manage in England probably.
It was sung at Old Trafford before Liverpool adopted it
Could you explain?
 
United fan Jane Hardwick claimed 12 years ago that the song was heard at Old Trafford long before it moved to Merseyside.
The grandmother was an opera singer in 1958, when several of Sir Matt Busby’s team died in the Munich air crash.

At the time, “You’ll Never Walk Alone’ was a favorite in theater's across the country from the 1945 musical carousel.
Jane and her friends were rehearsing the song at the time.

As a tribute to the Busby Babes, Jane got her friends at the New Mills Operatic Society in Derbyshire so sing a version it at Old Trafford.

They both only sing it at home.

I guess they sing it, because it sounds nice? I can imagine United fans hate it, cause Pool sing it, but when we sing it in de Kuip it still gives me goosebumps.

We sing lots of other songs as well though and it's not our main song. That's "Hand in Hand".
 
I’ve not disliked the new UCL format this year up until this round which as a neutral I find wholly uninteresting.
