The European Competitions Thread

[Milan 17,956]

Toure could not care less, it seems. He does not give a single fuck. That's the spirit for the 2nd leg of semifinals!

[Special Juan 28,141]

I think Toure cares he just can't lift his legs high enough now to run because he's a fucking complete cart horse.

[Captain Ahmed 528]

Boring game

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

F*** off Pellegrini

[Blue_Fox_ 2,086]

So this is it eh? My money is on Atletico. Real can't win it again.

[Blue-in-me-Veins 4,067]

So happy to see Man City knocked out. 

The better team went through, but have to say this was such a dull affair over two legs. 

Toure, KDB and Aguero were all invisible. Ultimately, City's inability to generate turnovers cost them, and the very few they did create, those counter-attacks were too slow. Sloppy passing all around too. 

Can't wait for the final, gonna be great. 

[Captain Ahmed 528]

Real Madrid is the favorite to be the European Champion.

 

 

[Essien19 1,415]

City are a disgrace for England, and yes, fuck off Pellers. Chilling in the box and doing nothing, only showing up for the last few minutes, late substitutions.
Next time, please messages all of us that you'll throw the game so we can do different things.
They play without any intensity, all of them don't give a fuck and that big guy Mangala, he fucks everything up badly, sunday league level.
Can't believe what i've just seen, unbelievable shite.

And the de Bruyne thread is silent, i wonder why, absolutely shocking from the Belgian, this time he doesn't get away with murder, i'm  going there, now!

This just shows how woeful EPL is.

Used to be the best league in the world, but it's really pathetic. No wonder Leicester was able to win. Crappy teams in the EPL compare to Spain top teams.

[Special Juan 28,141]

All that fucking money they spent and the English whimper and and shit mentality is still on show. It baffles me how some sides in our league can be called 'Sublime' by commentator's and it's only when we enter the elite stage in Europe the weakness is there for all to see.

Modric has just put on a fucking master class tonight.

[Pizy 18,903]

Really hope Atleti win. Would love to see Simeone, Luis, Torres etc get it.

I disagree, City didn't try, they came to watch, i'll give it to them, best seats in the arena.
Pellers is such a cunt, left speechless. Thank fuck that he's not coming to Chelsea, according to the media the legend was interested.

Leicester and Pool (as much as i hate them), they try, they give their all, i respect that.
We'll see how it goes.

Aguero, how overrated is he?!
If the stage is big in Europe, nothing, and that's not the first time. World class bottler!

 

[FabHazard 655]

Atleast our players did show some fight and running for the club...their team looks like it is full of mercenaries...that was the most important match of their club's history and they do not give a single fuck!!

[Blue-in-me-Veins 4,067]

Also, Toni Kroos take a bow son. 

Masterclass of a performance today. His decision making was perfect tonight.

We are crap. City, Arsenal, Chelsea, United.

Horrible weak league compare to that of La Liga.

I'm not sure...

if it's only about money they could have gone to Russia, China or Paris.

Chelsea wasn't a nice place this season, a lot of shit went down, Atletico is in the CL final, fully competitive in the league and a guaranteed starter in Cl next season. The club's reputation is at an all time high, players getting their fair share of praise, good for the upcoming Euros, the bonding within their team is there to see, Spain vs. England (living) so on...

money can't buy you that!

Overall that's really bad, i would be unhappy and the travels from Costa speak for itself, imo.

Luis jumped ship at the right time, won the league in Spain, then England, maybe now the Cl, agent is doing his job properly.

And the money can't be that bad, Griez, Koke, Godin and some others seem quite happy.

Some people are so poor, all they have is money, Chelsea these days, wages.

Well, it's all good until last season, right? This season is one to forget. Don't think what happened in this only season, suddenly makes them 'miss' their Atletico days.

Yes, we heard something about Courtois want to leave to another club with CL football rumour, but it seems he will stay now. Never heard anything from Costa indicating he want to leave, if I am not missed anything.

[HRiver 1,512]

City are the worst semi-finalist I have ever seen.

[Captain Ahmed 528]

A cramp that I had in my brain after watching this game

I partly agree with you.
Sure, the days of the world class players are gone, but seeing teams like Atletico turning it on, i do think the failure is rather on the managers.
In my view Arsenal have a solid foundation, but the guy in charge has clearly seen better days.
It's more or less a miracle how Van Gaal is still in the job and Pellers is a goner, which is fully justifiable, he did it again and downed the tools, very well done!

Turning to the clubs who are going to represent England next season:
Spuds fucked it up against BVB, but they didn't use the likes of Harry Kane, wait until next season. But yes, you can put the blame on Poch.
But i have hope, he's perhaps a bit overrated, but the squad is good and they'll buy.
Leicester is totally unpredictable, but Ranieri's no idiot, maybe it's game over against Bayern or Barca, but at least they go down with a fight and that's all what i'm asking.

The top clubs in Spain are better than their counter parts in England, but i still prefer the strength of the Premier League taking all clubs into consideration.

There has been a change in thinking in England, Klopp was only the first one of the new world class managers, so i'm optimistic for next season.
Yes, there's still a long way to go.

Fingers crossed that tomorrow Klopp can get one over on the Spaniards, about time that England put them to the sword.
Klopp can be all smiling and acting like your mate, but tomorrow he'll be up for it, they'll put up a hell of a fight, as already aforementioned, that's all what i want!
Here we have an agreement, because i share your affection for the German!

Off to Bluemoon, i'm having a hunch that their reactions could be fun.

You've a point there, it's all smoke, nothing concrete.
Everyone has their own opinion and perception of things.
No problem, mate!

Goddamned Kompany. Heartbreaking. Sorry to say this on a Chelsea forum again, but I genuinely feel bad for him now. He works so fucking hard and it's just over and out. If he's forced to retire, I'd kick Wilmots out and make him NT manager in a heartbeat.
