Topic: Champions League Final Atletico Madrid v Real Madrid May 24, Lisbon

[edge]

Haha. Ronaldo and Coentrao arguing over who's to score.

[kennedy81]

Guardiola should hand all his Barca titles over to Messi immediately. Been found out as a charlatan

the fact that Messi is still actually there somewhat undermines your argument.

What is mullers normal position? I know I'll get slaughtered for it but he strikes me as a glorified utility man

Thank you.

Since Guardiola left, Messi has been half the payer he once was.

[Golyo]

He didn't leave out of protest against our medical team though.

Dalglish tried to get him to stay but he wanted out just before the window shut, nobody forced him to the fans who supported and idolised him for years.

It was Liverpool that accepted the transfer amount before he was allowed to speak to them, or am I wrong?

[Anywhichwayicant]

Because it is crazy, you actually think that Messi was behind all of Barcelona's success?

Massive part of it, but that Barca team had great players in their prime.

Guardiola showed how reliant he was on Messi, when he shipped Zlatan back to Italy, when Messi told him to.

What's with the clapping you can hear close to where Andy & Clive are sitting?

Have they smuggled a seal into the commentary box with them?

It's doing my head in.

Dear Mr Townsend Travel

                         What exactly are good numbers in the box - Prime? Even?

Please elaborate.

Torres handed in his transfer request which we asked him to do if he wanted to leave. In the words of Kenny, whom I trust over Torres 10000 times:

Asked if he tried to persuade Torres to continue spearheading a Liverpool revival, Dalglish said: 'Of course I spoke to him. I did what you thought I would do, what everybody hoped I would do.

'I did my job properly and correctly, and we were disappointed that he left. But he has gone. That was his decision, and the thing is, we didn't mope around. We got out and did the business.

Part of me wants to see Shitcoat get beat in the final against Madrid. His ego would take a serious kicking if that happened.

That could be achieved with another "ghost-goal" that denies him the opportunity to reach the CL-final in his home country...

[Elzar]

Whats with the boring Torres/Guardiola/Messi discussions.

Some right repetitive souls in here.

Just because he made a "mistake" does not make him a crappy coach though does it?

I just think this Bayern team have it easy domestically and at this level dont have the ability to break teams down playing this sort of football, there players aren't good enough. I'd shit myself if Ribery and Robben were playing on the counter, but they don't. It's so predictable. Would like to see the touches Ribery and Robben get and how often they do exactly the same things.

I thought this was the champions league semi finals discussion thread? Must be in the wrong place

What else is there to do? It's not like there is a CL semi final to watch anymore.

[Redman0151]

The height that Ronaldo manages to jump to never fails to impress me.

He gets so much height it's ridiculous

Well this game isn't creating much discussion atm is it?

[helmboy_nige]

Might sound weird but who I want to win the CL when we're not in it is entirely designed around which managers are in the frame to equal Paisleys record of 3 European Cups. This years a tricky one and it's looking like the record is finally going to be matched.  Going into the semis 3 of the 4 managers have two European Cups each. So the question is... if Atletico don't win it then who can I cope with?

For me Carlo Ancelotti is the one. He's older and more experienced than Pep and has proven himself in various roles. Pep is a great manager but he's young and has gone between the best teams in the World. He can wait. He has a whole career ahead of him.

And don't get me started on Jose Mourinho. The media would turn it into a bigger nightmare than if England won the World Cup under Roy Hodgson!

So... am happy to see Real winning. now I just need Atletico to turn over Chelsea and I can rest a little easier.

[CHOPPER]

That Ronaldo doesn't half hang in the air well doesn't he.




Pity.

Tiki taka is dead. Long live the bus!

I think you have to blame his tax advisor for that, though.

Claudio Pizzaro.

[Istanbulievable]

Come on Bayern, get a bloody goal!

[edge]

Gotze and Pizarro on, Ribery and Müller off.

[jillcwhomever]

They will hopefully have their tyres let down tomorrow night.

Bayern dont half have some crap strikers dont they?

[kennedy81]

thought Neuer was gonna 'do a Schumacher ' on him there for a sec.

[TheTeflonJohn]

Just can't bring meslef to give them the day out. 'Operation suffer in the semi's' please.

There is that bottle of piss to injest,Chops, but if I knew they would get beat in the final, the men in white coats chasing after shitcunt would temper the injestation of piss 

[stoa]

Claudio Pizzaro.

Discuss

He'll score a hattrick and set up the another two goals...

[HighSix]

Since Guardiola left, Messi has been half the payer he once was.

[Cruiser]

Have Bayern attempted a single shot tonight?

[edge]

Bayern dont half have some crap strikers dont they?

Reckon Lewandowski will help them along next season..!

[Redman0151]

Have Bayern attempted a single shot tonight?

Taking a shot means losing possession

[DaBoda]

Good to see Bayern being ripped to pieces here. They are so slow on the ball, and trying to score goals on Real with Müller up front is just plain ludicrous.

[edge]

Ramos off. Safe for the final!

[rossipersempre]

Credit and respect to the bank of Bayern fans behind Casillas' goal.

[Elzar]

haha see Neuer after Ramos goal?

Find it hilarious when players appeal for fuck all.
