If Real go through, I am going to be rooting for them. Can't stand any of the above clubs winning it.

I couldn’t root for Real Madrid just wouldn’t watch it.

Three of the 4 semi finalists will be Chelsea, Man City and PSG. Utterly grim.

Two clubs who UEFA recently sanctioned for financial fair play breaches (one of them buying their way out of it with expensive lawyers) and the other recently sanctioned by FIFA for over a hundred rule breaches around signing young players.

But, hey, cheats never prosper do they?  ::)

Two poor defences here, truth to tell. Entertaining game, undoubtedly, but loads of mistakes too.

And the other team that could be in the semi were assisted in clearing debts of £170 million by shady rezoning deals by the dodgy Spanish Government.

The final 4 is more than likely going to be Real, Abu Dhabi, Chelsea, and PSG. It's like a who's who list of c*nts. You quite literally couldn't have picked a worse 4 teams in it. Okay, maybe United and Everton but fuck all chance of that happening.

I feel disgusted even saying it but I'd somehow have to want Real to win it, even though all things considered they're probably the worst club ever. Fucking sigh.

Just looked at the stats from the chelsea game. Looks like they've been totally dominated and scored from their only shot.

Edit- they've dominated possession but Porto have had all the shots.

Agree with this, as much as I hate Utd and Everton, neither club is anywhere near as bent as that 4.

Pep will over think it like he usually does.

Normally he would, but he looks to have found the best and only way to play with his current team now otherwise he opens them up defensively to much. He will use the exact same gameplan for the rest of the season and its probably going to succeed unless they meet a injuryfree Bayern who are just relentless or a Haaland who goes into beast mode in the next game. I still hope you are right though :)

I’m not so sure, he’s been in positions like this before but then has to try something clever. The man just can’t help himself. If he doesn’t win it this year I don’t think he ever will with City.

Yeah, I do agree, was more a joke to be fair as them two are the last two you'd want to win it. The 4 it's likely going to be in the semis are just horrible.
