That win puts us at about €65m earned so far in the Champions League. Plus our matchday revenue will now reflect roughly £17m more just from CL home games.

That's just some of the prize money.

Going to be hard for future managers to achieve "firsts" for this club by the time he's done.

Round of 16 knockouts for the first time ever. £12m+ into the bank. Everything else is secondary.

When a defender can't physically compete with Gordon he is fucking incredible. Must have been so good as a kid.

I think the thing to be upset about there if you want to be is not recalling Targett, letting Lascelles go, and/or not loaning in a defender. This is the consequence of that. In the context of what's available tonight I think people are overstating the options we have.

This thread is proof that some people just have to be unhappy about something.

Worth it for the Ramsdale hilarity

Anyone who is upset needs to chill out. We're up 8-1 on aggregate in the Champions League. We're clearly trying to conserve energy, certain players trying not to get booked, etc. It's hard to find the right balance without looking sloppy. Not a night where anyone needs to have existential worries about a player's form or the club's future.

I understand the sentiment and Barcelona aren't unbeatable, but I think we'd struggle with their midfield over two legs. Chelsea are beatable and the prestige (and finances) from a CL QF are far too attractive. Will be doubly true if we end up being setup where that QF could be against Spurs. There'd be nothing sexy about it, but imagine a Chelsea > Spurs path to a Champions League semifinal.

That was spectacular from big Wolt.

Also quite clearly loves saying Jafarquliyev.

0.06 xGA. Fuck off.

Eddie probably works them harder on a normal Tuesday when we aren't playing mid-week.

Murphy (Jacob) standing out as a weak link so far.

Isn't that just because of where Tonali is?

Joelinton must seem superhuman to some of these players.

Wondering if we can finish another first half with a 0.00 xGA. Would be more impressive than all the goals to me.

They mean well. I will now root for them in future European adventures.

He can rest when Tino or Miley is back.

We're goign to set some CL records tonight my friends.

He's not. He's quite clearly from a silver medalist country.

Now imagine this place if the U21 side some wanted to send out found themselves down 3-0 inside 30 minutes.

I struggle to remember ever feeling worse after a game.
