  1. In the old days of football you could n't fail to admire cfc sexy football. We also had Raquel Welch as mascot. Also Leeds, Keegan's pool and Cloughie's Forest. Some other teams were horrible to watch. I used to live two blocks from Highbury and never went in - unimaginable bore. Today's football is not sexy, in England, in Italy, eveerywhere. The defenses eat people.
  2. Werner reminds me of Francis Lee. Same body type. I remember Francis Lee scoring in a Greece - England international but those of you who remember him better how good was he really ?
  3. Aeschini, aeschini kai tin polin kataischinei
  4. Maybe Kepa saved more during training.
  5. Kudos to the wise great grand marshall Thomas Tuchel. But we did n't play well in the second half and allowed them to equalize. In the extra time there was one team on the pitch but again ...
  6. It's not a garbage league. What are the better leagues ? Luxembourgh ? Albania ? Lukaku has the same style as Kane - tall, big- and Dortmund fried us all summer over Haaland. What better options are there in the market ?
  7. Good start of the season as Pep lost again.
  8. Maybe the final signatures were put in July.
  9. Well 2016-17 we were with Antonio, we won the league and he did n't want Costa. Bakayoko was the first signing in May and was announced as the transfer of the year. Then we went for a new striker, failed with Lukaku and signed Morata who also was one from whom we expected much.
  10. To think that Bakayoko was our star signing during the first of the two Antonio years. Lukaku was the second target and United beat us to it.
  11. How many substitutes did we use ? 25 ? The two positives were the overall apparent good physical condition of the regular players and Ziyech. The various resurrections like Bakayoko, Zappacosta I don't think ... Only Bats in his heroic inspirations could be used sometimes.
  12. If it was Kai passing to Werner forget the first goal. If it was Werner instead of Tammy with the Arsenal defense blunder forget the second goal. We need a world class striker and the Haaland story is a dead story really.
  13. He did n't have good control of the ball. Tried in the end but the defender was covering.
  14. The last thirty minutes was a rodeo of a football match. What about the goal Arsenal claim ? It looked as if it was in but is n't there goal line technology ?
  15. We need to concentrate on the striker and also on positions where we have players potentially coming of age. Remember how we flopped in 2016 because of Iva not being able to carry on ?
  16. Lukaku is afraid of the premier so he decided to stay in Italy. I kind of liked him in 2017 when United beat us to the post but not now. I 'd like Haaland or Kane or perhaps Lew despite his age (32).
  17. Gooners have a poor European history. I cannot recall a gooner European success from the days of Charlie George. In those years we won European cups, pool did, Forest did, United and even Villa. Spurs to be fair were not even winning anything domestically but from the gooners nada.
  18. Luck plays an important role. We could have scored three on Saturday had Pulisic not missed. Then I was watching just before the video of Chelsea v. City 3-1 for the league during Antonio's season. City were denied a pen early on when Cahill finds the ball with his hand. With VAR could have been judged unintentional but who knows ? Then it was 1-0 to City and De Bruyne misses infront of empty net - worse miss than the worst of Werner's misses. But true, we struggled against Brighton for example and could n't score even if they were still playing. We need someone like Haaland.
  19. Watery pitch - he slipped. I wonder if he could avoid the ball and not take the shot at all. What would have happened ?
  20. Yeah ok. Barca seemed to have the better of us in the semis but also don't forget Terry was sent off in the replay - turned the match 90-10 Barca's way.
  21. We were n't. In 2012 Bayern was lucky to have the final staged in their stadium.
  22. I always have a certain respect for PSG and they knocked us out twice (Luiz revenge against Mou). Bayern on the basis of last year's performances was unbeatable. I don't know what came over them. The snow perhaps ?
