This Chelsea tie highlights why Benz is >> Suarez (not trolling) right now and has an argument as the better striker career wise despite Suarez having an obviously higher peak. Suarez has never done it v top teams as the main man (his Liverpool 13/14 season was brilliant but minnow bashing).

They did give a pen for Lenglet's foul.

Guess you have been mad for the past 2 games then , with the soft pens PSG and Huseca got. :boss:

But as Porque said , in most cases this would have gone to VAR and would have been a Pen.

Yeah, and I was mad at those decisions as well. The consistency in these decisions across Europe is nowhere to be seen, I agree, doesn't mean I think they are penalties.

Atletico was inexistent in the first half. They don't deserve that kind of soft decision imo.

I always saw Suarez as a proficient striker but needs people to get him service to operate. He excelled at Barca purely because Messi and to an extent Neymar allowed him many opportunities

Fully agree consistency is nowhere to be seen. At time it looks like contact = Pen , then you have instances like these. Hard to gauge what the rules exactly are these days especially when the argument "The ref didn't see it" doesn't apply anymore.

Suarez's 2013-14 season is overrated. 22/31 goals were against bottom 10 Premier League teams and Sturridge contibuted more points for Liverpool than Suarez did. There's a legitimate case on how Benzema carry-job in 2018-19 season is more impressive than Suarez's 2013-14 campaign.

ATM are so bad at keeping possession this match. Every time they get the ball they lose it 10 secs later. Also LOL Suarez off

Btw this tie goes to show the importance of managers. If Lampard was still managing Chelsea, Atletico would have shit housed them in both legs. Tuchel has them playing defence which is Ateltico's worse nightmare since they have 0 creativity in attack.
