Champions League 23/24

On a side note: if there's one player that lives off a single season it's Davies. He's a bum, Barto was right.

Wasn't even a great season - it was the COVID year and the players he destroyed were some bums for Chelsea and Semedo

That real city ref is class. Allows a lot. Doesn’t kill whatever tempo is left of the game

 

[fergus90]

Davies cannot defend at all. Most of his game relies on recovery pace. Any half decent winger turns him inside out.

@Birdy where are you dude

Madrid on their usual Voodoo shit
Outclassed in the first half, only to be saved by lucky deflections

In the other game, Tuchel is not as bad as BF thinks. It will be a close tie

LMAO Bumdy

Madrid been the better team in the first half. Not by that much, but their superiority was clear so far. City very nervous and with some abysmal players on the night.

The advantage is not enough for Madrid though. They are gonna get turned over in England if they carry just a one goal lead.

LMAO Bumdy

Keep your mouth shut until the end of the return leg in Manchester you cocky troll
Another mauling is possible this season

IF we somehow get into the CL final in order of preference: Arsenal -> City -> Bayern -> Real.

Arsenal are just European lightweights, no two ways about it. And City looks like a good fit (slowish, positional, Araujo vs Haaland...).

 

[soul24rage]

No Julian Alvarez, no party

 

[El Gato]

Aye
Possible

This pleb lol
City barely creating danger while striker looking utterly useless

Need to stop shooting at their keeper and build a bit of a lead, otherwise totally not doing game justice. Should be leading by 2 at least now

 

[Horatio]

No Julian Alvarez, no party

Where is he? Guardiola refuses to play him
against teams that sit deep

 

[Joan]

Yep but they are missing almost half a team and are dead tired, compared to Madrid.

Who’s missing besides Ake and Walker?

 

[Birdy]

Aye
Possible

This pleb lol

Probable with over 70% at the moment

Excellent post, would switch Bayern and RM though.

We have the upper hand v RM more often than not, and a bad history v Bayern in recent times.

Game is similar to Liverpool - City from a few weeks ago imo. Except more positional and a bit less pacey, which is expected.
