  1. Borini. FFS that's horrible defending from Chelsea.
  2. Fucking Diego Costa has missed two very easy chances for Chelsea. Going to be livid if Chelsea doesn't win this.
  3. It's perfect on that kit imo.
  4. Been really impressed. Love Klopp for playing those four attacking players as well. Milner and Can covers so much ground that those four can just play freely.
  5. Soldado is going to get himself sent off tonight
  6. No Thiago Silva, Marcelo, Lucas or Firmino for the Copa America side. I liked the idea of bringing seven players that will play in the Olympics. Only problem is that they're horrible but at least Coutinho is back despite Lucas and Firmino being left out in favour for Ricardo Oliveira and Hulk. At least David Luiz has been frozen out, been an absolute embarrassment for the national team lately.
  7. Thought he started well, but has declined. Agree with you though, overall it's been not more or less than expected really.
  8. How the fuck was Lucas Vasquez not sent off? Ref was right there.
  9. True. Dembele's eye gouge was miles worse than the Lamela stamp. Still absolutely ridiculous he isn't going to get a ban for it though Fair enough, I haven't seen a proper picture of it, but Lamela goes in and steps on Fabregas on purpose Bit of a difference between stepping on someone's hand and eye gouging someone like Stamping on someones hand is worse imo. At least Costa hopefully has the normal involuntary reflexes of closing the eyes before so shouldn't hurt much. Stepping/stamping on someones hand with football shoes hurts as hell.

  11. I thought Lamelas was the worst of the incidents. Clearly needs to get a suspension. As for Walker and Rose I'm not sure. Walker did what Costa always does and never gets charged for and Rose I feel didn't actually aim to push Hiddink over.
  12. Pretty special career, just like (but maybe not as extreme) Vardy he kind of appeared from nowhere having played in the lower divisions for years until his 20 something. Went basically from lower league to World Cup champion in a few years.
  13. It's crazy. Although Courtois has been a bit disappointing this season.
  14. Muller is the best, but he's been carrying an injury lately, started last game on the bench against Atletico. I thought they lost because of Oblak. That's my opinion. And tbf, they drew and went out on away goals And one could definitely argue that, but I won't. One could also argue that with points being made that the better team always wins and there's no luck or different circumstances involved in sports, that results never lie.
  15. From 180 minutes, they only scored one goal on the counter and that from a mistake you don't even expect from juniors. I'm not taking anything away from Atletico. They play their style and that's their best chance to win. Doesn't mean I think they were better than Bayern over the two legs. They haven't really defended that well over two legs either compared to waht they've done earlier in this CL campaign, Bayern could've had 4 or 5 in this 2nd leg if it wasn't for Oblak and a rusty Muller.
  16. Flip

    Football pet hates

    That's a Bold call. I had to Surf the net for hours to find an equivalent response.
  17. Genuine question as you made valid points earlier. What differs them that makes them more entertaining than Mourinhos sides?
  18. Worst poster on this forum, calling one of the best teams in the world a 'lesser' team. Their 2nd Final in three seasons. No one is calling them a lesser team. Atletico is doing basically what Mourinho did all those years. Boring to watch. Sorry that I don't share your views .
  19. Absolutely ridiculous to say Atletico and Leicester play the same style of football. I wasn't necessarily directly comparing the two, I was making reference to what you said about having none of the ball and no chances. Leicester have won games all season on that basis. Go to bed You're high. Leicester have played some fantastic stuff during the season, they are also one of the top scorers in the league. And Atletico are 3rd top scorers in La Liga, only behind Barca and Real. Atletico also play some fantastic stuff, but they also tactically set up well when they need to. EDIT - Just realised Atletico have only conceded 16 goals in La Liga this season, that is incredibly defensively. Atletico doesn't play fantastic footblal offensivley at all. They're basically the Cristiano Ronaldo in team form. Incredibly effective but fucking boring when you can watch Messi or Bayern. My opinion at least.
  20. Fair enough, but IMO (doesn't have to be yours ) I still think Bayern over the two legs showed more. Thought they were unlucky. Muller was rusty because it should've been 3-0 at half time.
  21. I love Simeone ffs. Problem is it's the only guy on that team next to Griezemann that I want to succeed.
