Still elite.

He no-showed in the tie against Madrid in 2018 and the second leg against Man U in 2019, that's it. In 2020 he was coming off a serious injury and still played well overall. Some people decided to stick the chocker tag on the guy based on a tiny sample and despite ample evidence to the...

They hammered RM with what? 3 howlers by Ramos (first leg) and Varane (second leg)? :lol: But I guess you only factor in "black magic" and "defensive mistakes" when they benefit Madrid, not their opponent.

And City, who got eliminated by Lyon and barely beat a shitty Dortmund at home, does and is a bigger threat to Madrid? :lol: foh with that nonsense.

Why are you not accounting for PSG's absentees? you don't think missing the two midfielders who can string a pass together hampered their ability to build counterattacks? Paredes would've had a field day setting up Mbapp? and Neymar with all the space that Bayern left behind.

I don't know about "better", but he's definitely more versatile. He can play behind a striker and on either wing as well. His crosses are pretty decent when he's not being selfish.

Can't believe some clowns wrote this guy off after a couple of no-shows in the CL.

The second leg is impossible to predict imo. Both teams are an absolute joke defensively.

PSG lost their best defender and are missing their two best midfielders too.

PSG midfielders are useless. They can't seem to make a simple through or long pass to Ney and Mbapp? despite Bayern leaving a lot of space behind.

Not just that, teams like Liverpool and Bayern surpassed Bar?a in terms of CL wins in the past 2 years. As a Barca fan, you definitely don't want them to win more.

What is he supposed to do? keep pressing after going up 0-2 and exposing his even shittier defense?

Verratti always finds a way to miss these big games. Unlucky.

They're calling an event that hasn't even happened yet a " fluke ". :lol:

Turns out he's not finished at all, he just needed a little break after that crazy 2015-2018 run. The COVID break was really good for him.

No way Madrid beats Bayern in a two-legged encounter, but in a final? I can see them eking out a win. Teams like Madrid and Bar?a rarely let it slip once they get to the final. Also, Militao finally justified the ridiculous amount of money RM paid for him. His future depended on this game tbh.

Again, you're having trouble staying consistent with your OWN logic. City was an "easy" draw for Madrid just 7 months ago because they were behind Liverpool in the League, but PSG was a tough draw for Bar?a this year despite trailing behind mighty Lille for most of the season???? insanity...

In Europe? I have a soft spot for Madrid and Milan. But I wouldn't call it "support". But if we're discussing Bar?a vs Madrid, I'll admit to having a bias towards the latter.

You just said City was an "easy draw" when Madrid faced them just last summer. Now Madrid is lucky for avoiding them? :lol: it's like opponents become "easy" the moment Madrid draws them or something. Insanity. Getting lucky is facing Porto or Dortmund, not fcking Liverpool. And all you had to...

So the fact that they aren't as good as Bayern makes them an " easy draw" for the second round? as opposed to what? drawing a Neymarless PSG that's struggling in Ligue 1 behind mighty Lille? Or drawing Napoli last year? Seems like in your world, anything short of Madrid drawing the hardest...
