The European Leagues & Competitions Thread V2

Milan being decimated 0-3 to Verona, who're 2nd-bottom in Serie A (which is sad, considering their fan base is one of the better ones in Italy in terms of vocality; would love to see them have oil money pumped into them.) 

Milan will surely only get back to the top when they actually turn back into AC Milan - meaning bringing in players & staff who were there during the glory days. 

Apparently Kaka could be going back as an assistant soon, and personally I think that's a great start if it happens. It doesn't matter if these ex-players lack staff-like experience: their love for the club will carry it. Next they should target van Basten. If they want to jump back to the top quicker, they'll somehow convince Ancelotti to manage them too.

Amazing yet expected that Juventus are just about top again considering they were far behind, and probably have to cope with their worst form in around 8+ years.
Inter were on fire, Lazio too, Roma, Napoli - but all have too thin squads, too little quality rotation, too few new ideas going into games. Juventus have the squad, the rotation, the mentality/experience, the cohesion. It was always a case of when they'd catch up and not if.

Dembele ruled out for 1 month for Barcelona.

The Manager? Didn't mention that.

Costa scores for Atletico and now they are 2-1 being at home to Sevilla.

[Fulham Broadway 17,108]

Yids off to a flying start

[Ledg 643]

Spurs shit the bed fast.

[Pizy 18,552]

Spuds are one of the best sides in the PL and yet Juve are making them look like when a PL team faces a side from the Championship. Men against boys here so far.

 

[Laylabelle 9,458]

This is how I vision ours to go.. Maybe not so quick! 

Man City 2-0 up

[Milan 17,896]

damn City can already stop playing and field the reserve team for the 2nd leg and will still go through.

[KevinAshburner 1,270]

3 - 0 City in first half. Game Set Match.

[Pizy 18,552]

City are going to win the CL this season, aren't they? 😔

There isn't a defense good enough to contain their attack.

[!Hazard! 3,394]

Dembele has been absolutely outstanding in the last 20 mins. I wish we had a midfielder like him in the squad

[xPetrCechx 13,565]

Kane

[Pizy 18,552]

Juve dominate the opening minutes and then just stop playing. Spuds now playing their ideal game pressing and controlling the run of play.

[Duppy Conqueror 1,495]

what a shitty penalty kick haha..

 

as a side note..i remember as a kid,cheering for Tottenham when they won the U.E.F.A cup in 1984 at an age when i cheered on all English teams in Europe..i also remember the beating my dad gave me to knock that shit out of me..

Forest should have played Tottenham that year but the Anderlecht owner bribed the ref in their semi..

[Special Juan 27,622]

2-2 Eriksen free kick, what a game this has been.

Spurs have been absolute top class since going 2-0 down.
