Didn't think it was a dive at all tbh. Maybe I'll have to see it again, but looked clear.

Even at this level Sissoko plays like a donkey. How the hell did we get £30m for him?

Haven't watched him/them much but thought Douglas Costa was canny against Spurs Don't really agree, thought he started very well for ten minutes and had moments he looked bright, however he kept having trouble keeping possession in his own half. Was at the game and he was the most criticized player by the Juve fans. Made a lot of wrong decisions imo. People were asking for him to be subbed off early. Him, Allegri and De Sciglio got endless amounts of abuse by the fans in the 2nd half. Fair enough, thought he was their most dangerous player on the ball by a mile mind even if he did lose it a bit That's true, but their whole team was garbage for 75mins. Was ridiculous to see how well they started and how quickly they went away from what was working to just sitting deep even if Spurs did it extremely well. -

For some odd reason Tite has come out with his starting XI and 16 players that will be in the squad. Allison (Ederson, ?) Dani (?) - Miranda (T.Silva) - Marquinhos (?) - Marcelo (?) R. Augusto (?) - Casemiro (Fernandinho) - Paulinho (?) Coutinho (Willian) - G. Jesus (Firmino) - Neymar (?) Pretty much expected although I hope we get a surprise or two in the squad. Douglas Costa has been poor while Malcom and David Neres have done well in their leagues. That central midfield lacks creativity unless you play Coutinho there. As for Lascelles, I definitely think he should be 4th choice and in the squad. -
Wasn't expecting that accent The only thing I could think of as well.
-
Jesus. He created three very good chances and had one pass which was a tad to strong for Alves and one which Varane blocked perfectly or Cavani would’ve scored. He’s not Messi ffs.

Ridiculous analogies , ridiculous logic and statements which aren't true. (re, article)

What a load of rubbish when talking about Allegri, he's a fantastic manager and one of the best tacticians around. Like I wrote afterwards I wrote that because of my strong dislike for his philisophy. Really don’t see him as one of the best either. One of the best tacticians doesn’t go up 2-0 and then at home gets outplayed for 70 minutes by Tottenham. His tactics let them back in the game. You can dislike the way he plays/sets his teams up but he certainly isn't a fraud. I think he's a superb manager. Has a creepy smile, mind. Well Emery isn't a fraud either if we're going to be sensible.

Do people rate Emery? he's a known big match flop, i mean he's not a bad coach but he's constantly been bad when it matters going back to his Valencia days. Mentally he's just not strong enough to manage a club that aims to win trophies every year. Disagree on Allegri mind, he's consistently had to retool the Juventus squad because they keep selling their best players and they remain competitive. I just have a strong dislike for the style of football implemented by Allegri in important games. Was at the game on tuesday and seeing Juventus defend deep straight after going 2-0 and not even try to attack for most parts and when they did having Higuain and a poor Douglas Costa trying to counter-attack by themselves was ridiculous. The italians around me didn't have nice words towards Allegri. When it comes to Emery, he makes multiple weird decisions every game. Doesn't cost them in the league since most teams are ridiculously bad, but in the CL? At least the return leg is going to force them to play an attacking football. Hope Motta is back for it as well as he's an integral part of the team as PSG clearly lack depth in central midfield.

Call him and ask him. Lo Celso was having a nightmare and had a yellow card and he took Cavani off.
-
Worst manager in ages. Taking Cavani out and leaving Lo Celso on was a big mistake. but you said the same Cavani was so s**** and was stealing poor main mans limelight. The manager gave main man the amunition to do the job but it was slightly cold and Madridy so he had to hide instead. Poor main man. Such an unfair pressure on him.
-
He was, but Emery was probably even worse. Some of his decision are mindboggling.
-
Emery just like Allegri are footballing frauds.

If they play like they've done today, they could very well beat them 2-0 at home or even by more. They've been unlucky over the 90 minutes. To be the better team and lose 3-1 must suck

Feel bad for Ney. Been best player on the pitch. Should sign for Real next season.
-
Wow. Wow. Wow.

http://robopromedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/safecracker.jpg :lol: Wow was I right. The worst player on the pitch as well after Lo Celso.
-
Real are going to score. Undeservedly so.
-
PSG actually look better when they attack now without Cavani
