Nah his coaching was amateurish. Getting sent off mid way through the game instead of trying to get the team through with 10 men and 2 goals up was a cherry on the cake and shows how amateur he is.

Inter's route wasn't any easier than ours this year.

Madrid dont have more money, they just manage it better, they only spend for top talents and build a top team that way. PSG is the only exception as they are state run.

Of course, nobody is saying we are a very well funded club, we are behind in transfer funding compared to the top Premier League teams, but not to teams outside of England.

Yes and also costs a lot of money to pay players like Lewa, who Nottingham Forest would never sign. Transfer fees are coupled with wage fees and both are directly correlated to the skill of the player (wages perhaps even more so) so only using transfer fees is, deceptive, likely intentionally...

Where is the wage bill stats? What is Nottingham Forest wage bill vs Barcelona's?

I think they started much better in the 2nd leg but we got a goal against the run of play. It's hard to say what would have happened, but you could start by considering that if Araujo didn't foul Barcola he might have scored and made it 1-1 there. I think it was certainly more likely that we...

Temptation got banned? Why?

Yes, 6 more goals were conceded because we have worse players. ...

People here keep saying, oh, but we would make the final if Araujo didn't get the red. Really? We just watched an arguably EL level side concede 0 goals over two ties to PSG and beat them 3-0 on aggregate whilst we were on ropes for most of the two ties. Even if we assume we beat PSG without...

Damn, another team in the final that doesn't spend hundreds of billions...

Huge BIRDY win.

Its easier to 'do your bit' when you play for a better coached and better quality team... If Araujo played in Madrid he probably wouldnt be committing that many big errors because his team shields him better.

That really isnt how that works. You can have certain areas of your team that contribute more to the wins. Its not that every single player is rated equally as a CL winner because some contributed more to it whilst others didnt contribute much... their bench players who dont play a single...

Not really... he just plays for a very good team who get results and gets rated that way. Its circular reasoning... you are saying, Madrid get good results and win the CL, therefore every single one of their players must be good as they are all CL winners. I dont even want to start breaking down...

The great Nacho... wow.

Of course the Madrid players will be CL winners because theyve won it recently... that doesnt automatically make Nacho better than Araujo. The point is you can sell the expensive overrated players if you think theyre overrated and replace them with better ones.

I do not agree... I think the players who you think are crap would net very high fees. If theyre not good enough we should cash in and buy much better players whilst they still have a market, yes?

There is room for replacement, but not without selling. The squad is very valuable and if you feel it isnt performing to a high level then a mass rebuild should be done.

Not at all and they are in a far far worse position than Barcelona is.
