Vini goal!

Another Real header from a corner saved by Kobel.

Brilliant save by Kobe from camavinga.

Dortmund throwing on Malan and Haller, going for it.

Free kick to Real just outside box.

Brilliant tackle by Scholterbeck.

Bollocks, just knew this would happen.

(Not serious)

Italian defenders are masters of the dark arts.

Adeyemi should have put it across teh box.

You just know these misses will come back to bite Dortmund on the arse.

Shit Dortmund hit post.

How did Brandt miss.

Shouldn’t have been so shit, probably made more money than playing in Peruvian league as well. edit to say I have no hate for the guy but we should have scouted better, he was a nobody in Peru not even highly rated or anything.

Well we did beat Milan to his signature.

Baffles me why our ownership are so passive with all of this. Take the PL to court over restraint of trade and collusive practices,

Wouldn’t be against it if all clubs were given the same headroom but fuck off with it being only for clubs in europe.

Overrated yes but the point was the finished product can look decent compared to what it looks like now in an unfinished state.

It’s not complete yet, see Boxpark Shoreditch London, can look pretty decent.

That statement really means nothing, players kiss the badge one minute and sign for another club the next. He could stay, he could go (and not necessarily to us), no point in worrying.

Realities of FFP unfortunately.

We can’t have another injury hit season so I reckon we’ll get 4th next year.

I think (I hope) tomorrow after the initial disappointment most will see the football projects heading upwards and this is just a minor blip. More positivities than negatives. Plus the euros in few weeks should be a distraction.

On the wind up?

We’ll see re this keeper but Bruno and Isak signed for us when we weren’t in europe. I think a managers plans for a player and their ability to improve their game and being part of a project which is stable and heading upwards is more important. Don’t get me wrong the elite players want champions league but we’re not fishing in the Vinicius Jnr/Bellingham pool. The calibre of player were going to be after are a step below, good players with a stalled but back on track career (Isak) or players with potential to step up (Bruno/Gordon/Botman) and I don’t believe not getting conference league will prevent us signing that level of player as they should be able to see beyond this season. Nothing personal but I hope you’re wrong about conference football affecting our recruitment plans.
