I do not know how anyone can watch the two games and have wanted Everton to stay up over Leicester. Everton are an awful team. They play terrible football and Pickford and Mina are unbearable. I would hope they could at least improve next season, but little hope with Dyche there.

Voted for Sean Longstaff. Bruno is the best player at the club, imo, but Longstaff has become my favourite this season and has vastly outperformed the expectation I had for him.

Only following by phone as I'm on the train. But seems as though there was an crazy amount of stoppage time in the matches for both Merseyside teams. We're there serious injuries? Both had 10 minutes.

This man Dr. Cinik must be doing quite well with his hair business in Turkey to afford that advert.

The logo for the new World Cup is an abomination.

This is remarkably uncompetitive. Even when Madrid create reasonable opportunities, Benzema, Rodrygo, and Vinicius have been abysmal. Not one outfield player can be credited with decent performance. City have been wonderful, obviously.

Maddison is one of those players that always seems to take an extra touch. Very annoying as he is not quick in the first place.

Wout Faes plays like a forward thrown to centreback by an incompetent manager. He is always flying out of position at the slightest provocation and is far too weak in tackles and aerial balls to be considered for that position.

Lautaro Martinez is a decent player outside of the 2022 World Cup, but if Chelsea still have unlimited finances and no fear of the FFP regulations, they should just be throwing 100 million as a starting bid for Osimhen and Kolo Muani. They need someone to properly lead the line as a lone striker more than anything else, even more than someone to actually score goals, tbh. Toney as well, but I am not sure how long he will be banned.

Both of these sides have a lower position in the table to NUFC in an inferior league, it is not really a surprise that they are poor. Serie A is poor this year outside of Napoli, tbh, but these two have had luck with the draw and strong performances when it has counted.

Leao is better than Kvara, imo. Milan's attacking play is very poor without him.

I do not understand the controversy. Surridge swings at the ball and misses it. There is contact, on the replay, you can even see Lavia's foot turn. Not heavy contact, but certainly a foul.

I don't understand talk of dive, he actively kicked Lavia's foot.

Leicester cannot defend at all, it is incredible. The back four is at sea, and with Ndidi badly out of form and/or permanently declined there is not even anyone protecting them

Iwobi was one of Everton's better players (I am not complimenting him, the team is poor) when he was playing centrally. I am not sure why he has been pushed wide again. He has lost pace and was never had much end product anyway, but he will link play well and is strong.

It is easy to see how Leicester fell into this mess. They have strong talent in midfield and attack, but the back four is atrocious in terms of actual defending ability. Soyuncu is probably the best of them and was exiled from the squad by Rodgers. Tbf, the same Rodgers waited until they were on the brink of relegation to put in a competent keeper. Ward was the worst one in the league.

Does Vardy no longer take penalties for some reason? Iheanacho took the last one for them and now Maddison, but I swear as long as Leicester have been in this league Vardy has taken every penalty. Odd.

Ben Godfrey is the singular difference between the two sides in this match. Individually horrible for both goals.

Everton are putting together a remarkable amount of effort, but have no real idea how to attack. Just players running forward on adrenaline, with little method to their madness. If NUFC can survive this initial onslaught, there will be gaps to exploit.

Arsenal are not competitive in any way. They are not combative fighting for the ball, disorganised in defense, zero composure in attack. This seriously could be four or five already. Embarrassing way to end the title race.

A decade is understating things. It was nineteen years and nine months ago that Abramovich bought Chelsea and they were immediately one of the best clubs in the world from that date. Almost none of the players around today even recall a time before a dominant Chelsea. I was born in the early 1990's and for me it is a distant childhood memory. In the currrent context, saying that Chelsea weren't a top tier club is equally irrelevant to saying Nottingham Forest were once the best club in Europe.

Spurs have caused this club so much pain over the years. I don't want mercy. I want blood. More.

2021-2022 Abraham was fantastic, people were comparing him to Osimhen. Abraham of this season is comparable to Solanke. Him and Belotti have both been very poor, but obviously a good player if he recovers form.

They played Roma extremely tight in the Conference League Final just last season and are the best side in their league. Not sure why anyone would expect this to be an easy tie. But I am aware that Kaka just hates Mourinho.

In the last five Serie A matches for both sides, they have combined for one win. Coincidentally, that was also Milan beating Napoli. Even by Serie A standards, these sides are horrendous. Still, it is more interesting than the usual powers being in the Final.
