Armchair Pundit Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 I've no fucking idea where four minutes injury time came from, let alone the extra half minute he game Barca to get the pen - absolute shit-weasel of ref Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Frustrating, yeah but fucking hell we used to gather here and watch John Carver lick his lips for 90 minutes. Barcelona needed a pen to draw. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiquidAK Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 It's still mental that we just played a CL knockout game against one of the absolute giants and were the better team. Won a trophy a year ago. We've come so far so quickly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beren Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 1 minute ago, Mike said: I don't feel like we lost, or drew. I feel immensely proud to be a fan of this club and this team played outside their fucking skin. Can't grouse about the pen, we're a bit naive but that's how you learn and grow. Make the mistakes and grow. We're fucking mint. I agree with you completely. However you being philosophical instead of graphically visceral in your threats towards the officials perturbs me.

It’ll be much better with Gordon instead of Osula as well because the movement is smarter and the decision making is a thousand times better. Not counting the mistake at the end, the difference in Gordon's movement and decision making was night and day. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colos Short and Curlies Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Lose next week and there's 8 games left with no midweek fixtures. Everyone who plays a part next week just needs to leave it all on the pitch, fuck the derby tbh, no excuses for conserving energy. We've done half the job, in some ways 1-1 is an easier score to play with than a 1-0 lead. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Folks like the old ‘wage bill dictates where you should be’ narrative - in La Liga, our wage bill would comfortably be the 4th highest - and it’s pretty much on a par with Atletico’s in 3rd. This wasn’t Hartlepool vs Brazil ‘70. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know about the NFL because of what used to happen in that stadium. Do I hope the ref dies? Obviously. But it was a pen and I can't bitch. All I can do is turn around and see the trail of footprints we've left in our wake. We're a CL team. Maybe not every year but we're in the conversation.

Sir Joel Inton Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 3 minutes ago, pubteam said: Still mad that we can hang with Barcelona, but get beat by Everton. European teams don’t know how to play against us, imo. They attack and leave us the gaps we need to play. Similar to when Leicester were in the CL and got to the QF(?), teams had no idea how to cope with Vardy or their counter attack. By this time a lot of PL teams had worked them out and their league form was terrible. PL teams have worked out they just need to sit in and give us the ball. Barca tried this to an extent today but their natural ambitions to play football left them vulnerable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would almost pay the bill of the kitty on one world class striker It would make a hell of difference. With even a good CF we would’ve been taking a comfortable lead back to their place. I thought Osula did a decent job, mind you - but he’s not at that level. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve finally found something that might work with Gordon, and so of course he gets the shits for the biggest game of the season Life’s better when you just accept this is a cursed season.
