Juve have fucked us too many times in the transfer market for me to prefer them over Atletico, who on the other hand have saved us from Torres, Morata and Costa (they paid a good price for him considering the circumstances). I've always been for AM when we haven't been participating, they deserve it and it's about time they win it.

I can see that side of the argument

[Vesper 27,315]

2 of the top 3 LB's n the world (Alex Sandro and Lucas Hernandez) on the teams, but neither can play, Sandro suspended and Lucas still injured

[Vesper 27,315]

1 nil Juve

CR7 beast header off a Morata turnover

[Vesper 27,315]

Juve crowd is louder than I have ever heard them in the new stadium

[Vesper 27,315]

I am so so jelly of these teams' boards, they are both superbly run 

ffs

[Magic Lamps 11,450]

The obligatory pen gift in that fixture

[Vesper 27,315]

I had just flipped channel

who fouled who?

I saw Aguero slam it home

[Vesper 27,315]

2 nil Shitty, brilliant pass by Sterling, and of course the little thug Aguero smashed it in

[Vesper 27,315]

a travesty Schalke got this far due to draw

same for Roma

should have been Inter and Napoli

[Vesper 27,315]

damn 3 nil

missed who scored

[Vesper 27,315]

Sane

Shitty have to be one of the favourites

along with winner of this tie and Barca (SO hope Lyon pulls an upset)

Ajax as darkhorse

and hope Bayern smashes the Bin Dippers

Schalke a hardly the yardstick tho. They are an excuse of a football team and the club is in chaos every other year. They got a board that is just as incompetent as ours but with less money. It is testament to the abysmal level of bundesliga that they make it to the CL at all.

not saying it is the strongest league

I rate (obviously) the EPL, La Liga and Serie A higher

BUT

for sheer football excitement

I loooove the Bundesliga

[Vesper 27,315]

2 nil Juve

CR7 again

100m for him was still even at 33, 34yo a steal

[Vesper 27,315]

DAMN

I remember when we were at the level of these teams

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

fucking board

[Vesper 27,315]

the HUGE difference between Hazard and CR7 and Messi is that both of the LOVE extreme, crushing pressure, they LIVE for it (at club level) and CR7 at national level (it seems a burden for Messi)

same for Maradona, Cruyff, Beckenbauer, Pele, Baresi

[Vesper 27,315]

lol 4 nil Shitty, Sterling

[Vesper 27,315]

Must be nice to be in a CL Final level (in terms of quality game)

and bring in Dybala off the BENCH
