Champions League 2022/2023

Pep wont stop if wins CL.

He will want to win multiple with them.

Said it before.. he sees City as his legacy and always said would be there for years bar some unforseen family situation etc.

Does not make sense imo and I don't think this is how he genuinely feels. There isn't anything sentimental there .. very difficult to see him staying there beyond the 24/25 season

Every single person I think predicted city would beat madrid.


City are the best team on the planet, coached by the Coaching Goat.

Inter has About a 10% chance of winning, but I still Believe!!!.

Pep will leave once City are nailed for all those irregularities. So probably in a couple of years.

That's the sport though......


You have to figure out how to get a result with the tools you have.


Lesser teams trying out a Hollywood style of play like Brighton won't work in CL finals.

Bigger teams can buy better players but it's about the better cohesive collection on the day.


It would be boring if the big boys always won by default.

Teams like Brighton win me over, though

They have beaten all big 6 in the most difficult league in the world (bar City, who they still might beat in a few days), with the weapons of a David against that of a Goliath

Sitting back in a double decker bus and hoping to be lucky is not my cup of tea

Inter would have far better chance v Real.

Folk still with this idea their mentality would make them better side in final than this City who just beat them 5-1.

Same shite based on history rather than Real team see on the park.

Tbh though, most CL finals tend to be low scoring turgid affairs.

That would be a positive for Inter by simple probability.

City heavy favourites but don't count out Inter.

Inzaghi is very shrewd in these one off games.

I mean it would be hilarious if Inter beat them though. Gotta admit that.

Not counting Inter out as worse sides have beat City but this idea Real would be tougher team for them in final... no.

Dumfries will destroy city

Fair enough. I see where you're coming from and respect your POV. But let's be honest, CL finals are boring af anyways.


Cagey 1 nils are common. As a spectacle, CL finals have been mostly rubbish.

 

[ajnotkeith]

Inter are probably a better team than Real at the moment, to be honest, considering form and stuff.

Also it's a one-off game which naturally advantages them because the better team tends to win out over 2 legs.

 

[soul24rage]

Dumfries will destroy city

let's hope

Ofc they wouldn't. City are way better than Real and were better last season too. Luck ran out this time.

 

[DonAK]

Lautaro to assist Messi's BdO by scoring the winner siiiuuuuuuu

 

[Temptation]

Dumfries will destroy city

The geezer is amazing.


Looks like a fuckin serial killer.

Built like a brick shithouse.

Has a crazy name.


Man's larger than life. Probably my favourite Dutch guy after RVN and you.

City destroying Bayern and RM like that is a turn of tide. First time one of the oil clubs have destroyed historic teams like that back to back.
