[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Chiellini: We knew Spurs were weak in defence and fragile mentally.

:lol:

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Once Poch leaves and we (hopefully) get our shit together, Spurs will be back to their usual shit selves so they have to make hay out of the current period and win something.


As we know from our recent past, no one remembers consecutive top fours or R016 CL exits. It's got to be the FA cup or bust for them, so as much as it pains me to say it ..... come on Chelsea & Utd. :sick:

[Globalgunner]

Best thing that could happen now is Spuds to get frustrated and let Poch go. Back to mediocrity sharpish.

[Master Splinter]

Could just be the nostalgia talking but I actually wouldn't mind buying him back.

He clearly loves the club and he could thrive behind an actual fucking well organised defence from a new manager.

With all the scientific, in-depth revisionism going on, surely it's been proven by now that he may actually have been our best keeper ever and even De Gea would be chucking them in regularly under Wenger.

He's also a proper Arsenal fan and more importantly, an exceptional troll. And a better pianist than Cuntchez.

He is a Must Bring Back.

[Cripps]

Kane will leave soon

Ali will leave soon

Rose will follow Walker up north

Dembele says he wants trophies

Aldeweirald contract running out

Pochetinno will leave for better things

:rose:

[The Emirates Gallactico]

ehh there's no chance that Poch gets sacked anytime soon. He's accumulated too much good will among the board & fans - doesn't spend much money, gets CL football and plays good football.

He's basically where Wenger was with us back in the early 00's, except Wenger actually won shit.

The only hope is that RM come calling this summer given Zidane looks certain to be off.

Szecheny during his first few seasons as first choice was better than anything we've had since Lehmann tbh.

Spuds :haha:

[Blink 1nce Quince 2wice]

Arsenal would never pay whatever it would cost to get sneezy back here.....because Juventus behave like a big club.

[Master Splinter]

Juventus defender Giorgio Chiellini on Tottenham's disappointing exit:



"It's the history of Tottenham. They always created many chances to score so much, but at the end they miss always something to arrive at the end. We believe in the history. We saw it yesterday between Paris and Real, the history is important, with experience it is important, and tonight we use our skill and arrive at the win."


:haha:

"It's the history of Tottenham." > "Lads, it's Tottenham."

[KSE Comedy Club]

One fan in the Juventus crowd held up an Arsenal shirt at the end of the game :lol::lol:

Subs: Ben Yedder, Geis, Soria, Pizarro, Pareja, Nolito, Lopes.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Come on Sevilla. :bow:

Although I'm not holding out much hope given they somehow managed to get pumped 5-1 away to Eibar recently.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Muriel fucks it up.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Sevilla are kind of good. Look far better technically than Utd despite the difference in financial wealth on the pitch.

[Cripps]

How average are Sevilla?

[The Emirates Gallactico]

How average are Sevilla?

Honestly, apart from Man City they're a technically better side than anything we have in the PL.


On a side note, I genuinely think Alexis is past it. Should have taken the 60 million for him last summer.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Muriel puts another one wide.

Ben Yedder should be on.

[Cripps]

Honestly, apart from Man City they're a technically better side than anything we have in the PL.


On a side note, I genuinely think Alexis is past it. Should have taken the 60 million for him last summer.

Spanish teams have always been technically good.

Their attack is poor though. Not potent at all.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Lukaku :lol:

Thank god he's shit.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Lukaku lumbering about again.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Spanish teams have always been technically good.

Their attack is poor though. Not potent at all.

Not helping themselves with leaving the guy that has scored double the amount of goals this season than Muriel on the bench.

[Cripps]

N'zonzi :bow:

Wenger :doh:

[Globalgunner]

Steve Nzonzi is exactly the player we need in midfield instead of the shambling Xhaka

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Spanish teams have always been technically good.

Their attack is poor though. Not potent at all.

Won't disagree with that. A little more composure in the final third and they could have been up already.

They also lack the physicality & athleticism of the top PL sides which is why they'd lose to the likes of Spurs and probably Utd tonight.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Banega shoots, miles wide.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Sanchez with drifted, aimless ball #87487343848 of the season.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Rico saves from Bogbrush.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

0-0 HT.

Mourinho with a pillow over the mouth of football again.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Not sure if Jose realises he has to score here.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Correa should've buried it!

[The Emirates Gallactico]

FFS come on Sevilla. Can't keep screwing up these chances.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Perfectly good challenge from Nzonzi on Alexis punished.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Rico saves down low from Lingard.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Rashford hammers it across goal. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Correa with a bit of a scuffer, good run though.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Rashford. :haha:

OMG.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Muriel, Arsenal transfer legend is terrible.

[Goonermerree]

Listening on the radio, Rashford sounds like he's having a mare

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Fellani :lol::lol:


Don't trust Sevilla not to concede though. They need to score.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Microphone head off, Pogba on.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Sanchez's lofted balls.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ben Yedder is on finally. :bow:

Lingard off for Martial, Valencia off for Mata.

Distant second place and out of the CL. Third season meltdown coming up.

[Globalgunner]

WHY DIDNT THEY START HIM?!?!?!?!

They were sandbagging by playing Muriel for 60 mins
Jose was playing for pens obviously

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Fucking lol.

Had to walk through all the Sevilla fans on the way to the train today. They were really, really, really loud. :bow:

[HCZ]

The second goal

Jesus, that’d be shoddy goal even for us to concede

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

I'm guessing the 0-0 away result wasn't the best score after all.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Sevilla in again!

They could have had four at least in the last ten minutes!

[The Emirates Gallactico]

2 - 1

FFS

Don't fuck this up.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Flukaku.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ben Yedder puts the volley wide, bring back on Muriel.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Fuck off UTd. No way was that a deliberate backpass.

Spurs & Utd out and Chelsea likely to follow them.

So much for the resurgence of English teams in the CL.

[Globalgunner]

Mourinho. Pound for return. The worst manager ever. Closely followed by Wumger

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Rio. :haha:

Bitter shit.

Other teams will be licking their lips against Sevilla, wouldn't have scored in six months if they hadn't brought Ben Yedder on.

Yeah Sevilla were cheating by bringing a substitute on to the pitch.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Mourinho. Pound for return. The worst manager ever. Closely followed by Wumger

Yeah like Wenger he's past it. His style just doesn't work and he doesn't have the energy to change it up.


They just gave him a bumper new contract as well. The payout next season when things go completely tits up will be delicious.

[HCZ]

Gabriel Mercado looks like cro-magnon man

[The Emirates Gallactico]

The thing is that Sevilla were poor defensively seen by how easily Utd got in once they finally decided to have a go at them when they were two down.


Mourinho's negativity cost them this tie. :lol::lol:

[selassie]

Yeah like Wenger he's past it. His style just doesn't work and he doesn't have the energy to change it up.

[hobson's choice]

You have some of the brightest young attacking players in the game, and you are forcing them to play smash and grab football.

What a self centered fool:haha::haha:

Loved watching United get knocked out tonight, they are still a horrible team despite Maureen pumping millions into them. Back where they belong, scrambling for top 4 even though they are spending 100 million every summer. Lovely Jubly!

[Master Splinter]

It was after a few +1 wins and easing through in the group stages. Which we did nearly every season.

Group stage domination apparently now equates to England ruling Europe.

For some reason I thought it was the first leg.

Marvellous news. So Alexis won't be appearing in Euro competition for the remainder of the season? That's a real shame, but at least he now has time to watch his ex-teammates.

Very agreeable result. I'm so happy for Maureen. Well deserved.

And I'm chuffed for all the pundits who have devoted their lives to Utd. Great night.

A victory for football.

[Marc Overmars]

I knew United fans wouldn’t stand for his shit. He got away with it at Chelsea because they’re shameless but United fans have a different pallet for how football should be played.

Obviously them getting paid 100 times more than they used to isn't going to make them 100 times better but they do seem to actually be worse.
How can you be paid £500,000 a week to kick a ball and not be able to kick it straight? :doh:

I generally think stamina, strength and pace is prized above footballing skills

Dribbling
Crossing
Ball distribution

Football fans are so reactionary. I don't know if this was always like this or it's a feature of the Sky era and blanket coverage over-analysis of everything.
Back in the day I don't remember declaring ex players suddenly the GOAT after they have one good game elsewhere or useless chumps who were never any good after one poor one.

[Mac76]

Not sure about that, he was exceptional for us. Bailed us out plenty of times.



half the time he was bailing us out from going behind due to his trying to take on three or four playerrs instead of passing, and then losing the ball when his team have committed players upfield

he's doing just the same for yanited

I for one got fed up with him tbh

No doubt he can be wasteful and also selfish but his productivity for us was still there. "Alexis Sanchez Baby" was still being sung by the fans right till the very end.

As I said, it doesn't look like we're any better without him so I think too much was made of his so called negative impact on the team. Just seems like an easy way to deflect attention from our short comings and once again vilify a player who's only crime was getting fed up at Arsenal.

[Niall_Quinn]

Alexis was a blissful reprieve from Wenger's boreball. You have to take a risk if you want a big reward. So Alexis loses the ball a lot more, trying to do something with it that carries reward. Wenger's safety always sideways and backwards shitfest might rack up the possession stats but that's about it. Alexis is a genuine world class star player. If he'd been playing with 10 like minded players at our place he'd have been twice as good. But we have Wenger.

And now he's gone to work for Moaning Maureen. Out of the frying pan and into Maureen's even more depressing comaball. He should have gone to the gypos really, but supposedly he needed a wad of cash to pay off the dago government gangsters in Madrid.

[Globalgunner]

Alexis was our best player each season he was here. we would never have been in contention for anything without him. His problem it seems is that he needs to be the main man at any team he plays for. Mourinho is not a good fit for any star player, as he detracts from the collective individual talents, rather than summing them up. playing loobrush instead of say Mata is symbolic of his anti football. basically, he wanted to shut Sevilla down instead of playing football.

If Jose would play Alexis in a front 2 with Lukaku and have Rashford/ Martial/Lingaard on the wings he might have more joy. But like Wenger, Mourinho is more obsessed with not losing rather than trying to win.
Painful managers both.

It was Cesc who lost the ball there for the Chelsea counter. Emphatic finish though from Dembele.


At least we won't be the only English team that's got a shellacking at the Nou Camp in recent history.

[Globalgunner]

I say this every year, but I need to go and watch Messi play before he retires.

Just go watch Dele Alli. Hes just as good. The Spuds think so.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

For some reason BT are trying to convince themselves the longer and wider than Stamford Bridge pitch isn't longer and winder than the pitch at Stamford Bridge.

Alonso is such a scumbag. Haven't forgiven him for decking Bellerin.

Or murdering those people.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Old Man Iniesta off, Paulinho on.

[Niall_Quinn]

They get beat. Yeah

Course they do. 11 (or more usually 10) vs 14 is a tough job. I wonder what their record would be like if they ever had to play on a level field?

Now the spud butcher is coming on for some more of the same.

[Niall_Quinn]

Bif is really quite clueless.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Moses. :haha:

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Bif is really quite clueless.

tbf William should have known better than to expect Giroud to be quick enough to make a run away from the striker into space.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Useless from Hazard.

Busquets off injured, Andre Gomes on.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Chelsea on top according to BT and controlling the game.

CHELSEA NEED TWO GOALS YOU DUMB FUCKS.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Pique blocks from Alonso.

[Niall_Quinn]

What a miss by Alonso :doh:

[The Emirates Gallactico]

MESSIIIIIIIIIII

[McNamara That Ghost...]

3-0 MESSI!!!!!

100TH Champions League goal! :bow:

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Another goal through the legs of Courtney. :lol::lol:

[Niall_Quinn]

Not sure how that bloke at CB for the chavs has managed to get a game.

Rudiger is almost as bad as Mustafi tbh tbf.


German CB's :lol::lol:

[Niall_Quinn]

Oh well, was hoping to see the barcunts get a kicking, but seeing as that's not going to happen I hope the cunts and their ref run up a big score.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Chelsea have got them right where they want them.

[Niall_Quinn]

Rudiger is almost as bad as Mustafi tbh tbf.


German CB's :lol::lol:

I was more thinking Christensen. Dire. Instead of defending he runs away. Can't see the point of him. We should sign him for big money.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Bif well and truly hauled off, Morata on.

Moses off, Zappacosta on.

Vidal is on for Barca, Dembele off.

[Niall_Quinn]

Courtois is having a mare. Looks like his debut.

[Niall_Quinn]

How has a club with so much cash ended up with Bif and the ridiculous Morata as their strikeforce? It's hilarious. Who else do they have?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Alonso booked. I think he dived earlier looking at it again.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Hazard finds the space, with his pass.

[Niall_Quinn]

Alonso booked. I think he dived earlier looking at it again.

Of course he dived. They all dive. But those are given every time. That's 100% a pen in any other ground.

How many times have we conceded a pen for shit like that? And shit far tamer?

There's s different standard on display in the stadium. Has been that way for a long time now.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Hazard off, proving he is one of the best in the world again.

Pedro on.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Third best behind Messi and Ronaldo :lol:

[Master Splinter]

Azar proving time and time again that he's up there with the Ronaldos, Messis and Loftus-Cheeks of this world.

[Master Splinter]

:lol:

We all posted the same thing.

Like minds :bow:.

(Or weirdos :wacko:).

[Niall_Quinn]

:lol:

We all posted the same thing.

Like minds :bow:.

(Or weirdos :wacko:).

Same person/ different accounts tbf.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Rudiger hits the bar.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Two added minutes.

[Niall_Quinn]

Are Liverpool still in this or is it just the gypos now?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Messi is drunk.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Barcelona 3-0 Chelsea, FT!!!

Chelsea OUT. :wave:

Conte. :haha:

Lampsy. :haha:

Big Man. :haha:

Hiddink. :haha:

Vickery (I know). :haha:

Bates. :haha:

Mellor. :haha:

Abramovich. :haha:

Bif. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What did you think of Chelsea, Glenn?

"I thought Chelsea were excellent".

[Niall_Quinn]

Did Morata get a touch?

[Marc Overmars]

Would love to see a City v Liverpool tie.

[Master Splinter]

Chewsea :haha:.

Big Man :haha:.

Dids :haha:.

Bif :haha:.

Cisc :haha:.

Pat Nevin :haha:.

Ray Wilkins :haha:.

Best League In The World :haha:.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

At least Cesc & Giroud have past experience of getting stuffed away at a top European team to see them through this bad period.

[Niall_Quinn]

Would love to see a City v Liverpool tie.

In the final.

At Old Trafford.

[Cripps]

Chelsea fans whining about Giroud :lol:

Love the fact he's their problem now:lol:

[Niall_Quinn]

Thought they'd be over the moon seeing as all they had was Morata, which is worse than nothing at all.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Not sure why they're picking on Giroud, it was Courtouis that practically gifted Barca two goals.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Champions League QF draw at 11am.

Barcelona
Bayern Munich
Juventus
Liverpool
Manchester City
Real Madrid
Roma
Sevilla

[Letters]

Liverpool vs Man City :haha:

[Letters]

Juventus vs Real Madrid
Sevilla vs Bayern Munich
Barcelona vs Roma

[Marc Overmars]

Should be good. :popcorn:

Though the prospect of one of them definitely having a shot at reaching the final. :sick:

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Fuck.

[Özim]

Should be a great match between the two, Liverpool are capable of upsetting the odds and winning the tie, unpredictability is underrated.

Plus one of them gets knocked out which can only be a good thing.

Real, Bayern and Barca wil be the other semi finalists.

[Letters]

Fuck.

:lol: Pretty much.
Should be fun for the neutral which...I think I am? Dunno, might just be on your side I guess.

[hobson's choice]

You have 3 Spanish teams in the 8 team draw, but somehow they avoid each other.

UEFA:coffee:

It's difficult to get a Barca Marketing final otherwise.

We're probably the lesser of two evils. I'm more disappointed by it being an English. Even if it's a horrible draw, you at least want to play a team/players you don't often play against.

[Cripps]

Quite fancy Liverpool tbh. If theres 1 team that can do it it's them as proved already this season :shrug:

Doesn't Klopp have quite a good record against Pep too.
