  1. I’m not pretending. But they really stunk tonight. This is a week for football curses to be broken. Scenes we’ve never seen before need to happen.
  2. Best R16 for a long time imo. The matches I’ve watched these last couple days feel like QFs or SFs.
  3. Worse than Manchester United? Or Liverpool?
  4. He looked terrified. But he struck it well and only missed by margins. I guess any pen on target is better but Rudigers and Lucas pens were poor.
  5. Almost. PSG winning on pens at Anfield. Atleti beating Real on penalties in Europe. Newcastle winning a cup.. against Liverpool. These aren’t things that happen. Atleti losing to real in a CL shootout because of the faintest double touch and a shit penalty sneaking in is peak Atleti. It’s peak underdog.
  6. Atleti will always be Madrid’s little boys in Europe. Kinda wanted Atleti to win it on pens. Atleti are us. Atleti vs history. Incredible shoot out drama.
  7. Mbappe the player that wasn’t needed. Would be poetic for PSG to go through and Real to go out. Lad is toxic in a dressing room.
  8. My God Vini has been awful today. Been his biggest Fan but this is an abomination
  9. Aye scored in 2 CL finals but can he do it on a Monday night at Selhurst Park?
  10. Nacho being captain was one thing about Lucas V? Should’ve been in the MLS 2 years ago.
  11. Vini’s been disgraceful today.
  12. Do you think it’s a foul? If it’s a foul is there a genuine attempt to win the ball?
  13. It’s a blatant pen and a red card. It’s a purposeful foul with no attempt at the ball
  14. Slight correction - 5 teams won’t get 70+ points. That might have happened once in the last 15 years
  15. Yeh. To some degree it has. We will aggressively pursue commercial deals. Also says there’s been a reluctance to Pursue the most lucrative market for us the APT type deals. When a publicly listed company talks about plans for growth - it is fairly detailed. We aim to sell luxury goods in China. We’ll sell 100k more cars this year with aggressive marketing and promotion. Even the vague ones say we will get efficiency gains through automation and AI!!!!!1. But it’s something.
  16. Agree with this. He was imperious before the sending off then noticeably shaky ever since. Likewise for England he was uncharacteristically poor when shot stopping. Now the injury is potentiallly impacting him physically or mentally or both. Shame. I do love the lad. His presence has made Dubs step his game up too. Dubs tries to sweep and come for more crosses than he used too imo
  17. Also having a top 5 striker itw is a big reason we are still in the running.
  18. Think that’s good news. Still don’t understand the plan as to how we close the revenue gap. ‘More pressure on commercial team’ isn’t a plan.
  19. Didn't have to make any saves though. He swept up and commanded his area well. But before he was a great shot stopper. One of the best in the league. That part of his game is under question and without it.. he's neck and neck with Dubs.
  20. 6 teams won’t get 68+ points. 3 teams won’t get 70+ points. 70 points will be enough for 4th. 68 will be enough for 5th. 66-67 may even be enough for 5th.
  21. Maybe it’s cope. But I’m starting to think the more PL clubs in Europe the better. These new European formats are killers for PL teams. For all but the truly elite or lucky - it’s an automatic -5 points minimum. If Villa don’t have European football next year they’ll finish top 4/5 imo. If we had European football this year we would be at the bottom of the top 9 imo.
