    1 - Marc-Andre ter Ansplant

    Meltdown is partly understandable. We all need to let our frustration out. This was the worst defeat in our history imo. I have not been so saddened and angered by a football result since the 2010 semi-final vs Inter. This is probably worse.

    Ernesto Valverde - V1

    It would mean a lot if went through to the CL final. But now? Who cares? Just let Valencia have it. I only care about our next CL game, we dominated domestic football for too long.

    Champions League

    Real Madrid will be spending some serious money this summer, surely they will improve. How much remains to be seen. Atletico have their work cut out. We will have to wait and see if they can renew their team.

    Champions League

    It's not about this year or the previous or the next one. Having money allows you to have and maintain a squad of very good and world class players. Without lots of money, this is impossible. Even the richest teams go through cycles, or make poor deals in the market. But the prevailing trend, is...

    Champions League Semi Final: Liverpool - FC Barcelona 4-3 agg.

    Liverpool were only a bit better than adequate. It was our spineless performance that created the result. They did not manage even one great attacking combo, or even real clear-cut chances. Everything went their way, on top of our lethargy. All the talk about Anfield is so much noise. It has...

    Champions League Semi Final: Liverpool - FC Barcelona 4-3 agg.

    It was 2-4, but the scoreline severely flattered Spurs. Messi hit the post twice, and we also had several other chances beyond our 4 goals. Tuesday night was a disaster on so many levels. a) One more of Messi's years wasted. b) The chance to win a 6th European Cup vs Spurs in the final. c)...

    Champions League Semi Final: Liverpool - FC Barcelona 4-3 agg.

    Is this in any way realistic? I don't think so. For us football fans (people who watch lots of football related videos on youtube) the algorithms are specifically designed to come up with relevant content. Of course we are getting tons of videos with our latest debacle. Maybe not the whole...

    11 - Ousmane Dembélé - V1

    a) Thankfully you admit that Dembele's misses were pretty f***ing bad. b) Absurdly, you insist that another goal for us in the Camp Nou would not make an iota of difference. INSANE claim! c) I defended EV from the point of view that most of you single him out for several under par...

    11 - Ousmane Dembélé - V1

    I am not sure you realize how absurd your statements are. Moreover, why is it so difficult for you to just admit that Dembele wasted two glorious chances within 2 minutes, and that those chances did in the end matter. Yes, he just came on, yes he was rusty, but the fact of the matter is that...

    11 - Ousmane Dembélé - V1

    We are all reacting extremely emotionally to the result. If one cools down his head and suppresses the sorrow, it's clear that Liverpool got very lucky in the second leg. After going 1-0 up (Alba howler) Liverpool did nothing to seriously threaten us before the 2-0. In matter of fact, we had the...

    Champions League

    And now, for the first time in 10 years, they are is a heavy element of truth in what they say (lots of rubbish as well) This was bound to happen of course, money always wins out in the end, only surprise is that it took so long.

    Champions League

    Just because Klopp says something (that is very much in his interest to say) doesn't make it true. I knew that it would take only one good season from EPL teams for people like you to drown us in your crazy hype. Hell, you were bombastic even when EPL sides could not make it out of the GS and La...

    11 - Ousmane Dembélé - V1

    How on earth do you know that? Dembele's terrible misses cost us heavily, there can be no doubt about it. He had some good spells during the season, but after his previous injury turned to crap, then remained crap, missed 2 sitters vs Liverpool, then got injured again. These are the simple facts.

    The only game I care about right now, is a potential CL group stage game vs Liverpool. :valverde:

    11 - Ousmane Dembélé - V1

    This is absolutely true. It's not accidental that we have had so many epic remontadas/comebacks in recent years. It used to be the case that 2-0 first leg at home meant the tie was done dusted. In fact we were the first team in modern CL history to overturn a 2-0 first leg defeat against AC...

    7 - Philippe Coutinho - V1

    The foreign players always get singled out first, especially if they are highly paid. It's not perfectly fair, but that's how it goes. Rakitic, Coutinho, Dembele and even Suarez will always be under harsher scrutiny than Messi, Pique, Alba, Busquets etc... Coutinho has been a flop for us, and...

    7 - Philippe Coutinho - V1

    He wanted to go to a bigger, better club, same thing happened to Ibra from Inter. Leaves Inter to win the CL with us, and right next season Inter eliminate us from the CL at the SF stage. These things happen in football. But why would you complain? It worked out well for you, and very bad for...

    Champions League Semi Final: Liverpool - FC Barcelona 4-3 agg.

    It's almost impossible for us to look at this result unemotionally, yes, there was bad luck involved, but the lack of fighting spirit and intensity was what hurts us the most.
