Champions League Final 2021 City v Chelsea

[davek]

It’s like any cup competition, it’s not necessarily the best team that wins it. In saying that Chelsea thoroughly deserved it tonight.

They spoiled the game. That's fine if you support them; as a neutral I thought they were scrappy and cynical.

Could defo picture Tuchel in a ss uniform

Been trying to think who it is he reminds me of. Now I've read that I've realised he's the spit of the fella who meets his end with the baseball bat on Inglorious basterds

 

[Sharpies volley]

No, probably not, might aswell accept it, we are a million miles from anything like this

In the 70's I dreamed and believed that one day we would win it and in the 80's that dream almost came true and, well you know the rest. But now I believe it will never happen in my lifetime.

 

[Cool_Blue]

Has Pep been sacked yet? Ridiculous selections.

 

[Martin Alvito]

Also, a quick mention to PSG who binned Tuchel and replaced him with Pochettino.

To be fair, Tuchel like Conte and Mourinho is notoriously mercurial. He tends to wear out his welcome quickly.

I hate that competition.

Out of the last 20 years there's only 4 finals I got the result I wanted:

Milan v Liverpool
United v Chelsea
Inter v Bayern
Madrid v Liverpool

You know how people start doing betting tips under the guise of mad names like ''The Horse Fister'', well.........why not set up your own tip account but throw in the unique spin of having everyone bet the opposite to what you predict.

Last I heard Abramovic hasn't even spoken to him.

Could have been 3 nil up by half time in what i thought wasnt scrappy football. They were picking city off with ease.

5 and 6 at the back most of the night.

Chelsea have good players, but they wont win the PL with those tactics.

Fat Sam sat in his armchair laughing his gravy tits off at Pep.

Possibly. But the chances werner missed tonight. Lukaku would have buried them.

True but Rom wouldn't be getting into the same positions. Werner does cos he floats and his movement is great. He just can't finish

 

[EverTheOptimist]

Classic from Tuchel, beat this City team 3 times in a month,he has Guardiola's number.

Kante was magnificent, Chelsea's best ever signing.

City blew their best ever chance to win it and Pep tinkered again in the CL.

Fans are back next season and City will not get past the QFs as they wilt in hostile atmospheres.

UEFA chose that Ref for a reason, he had no qualms not giving City anything, he has history wrecking City and Prp in Europe, UEFA's revenge by Ceferin after the CAS verdict where City got off on a time barred technicality.

 

[kenada_blue]

Oh aye. Why does he bother employing managers d'you think?

To get a tune out of the toys he's bought, then bins them when they become boring

His movement is fantastic. But if I was an opposition manager Ild be instructing my defenders to let him have the ball all night, because he does f.a. with it.

If Werner didn't have pace he'd be a non league player, worst finisher I have ever seen, he is abject.
