Only Irish player in the CL plays for Apoel
― everyday sheeple (Michael B), Thursday, 28 August 2014 19:24 (ten years ago) link
Apoel reached the quarter finals in '11-'12 beating Lyon, they can't be that useless. I'd say I feel more sorry for Ajax. But I don't.
We don't have an EL thread do we? Good excuse to fanboy here. Depay tonight, ladies and gentlemen: http://youtu.be/hgZHXams1pU
7 goals and 3 assists in his last 5 games. Plus four year contract extension :-) Not been this smitten of a player since probably Van Basten when I was young.

With mercenary buffs like Falcao I can see they wanted to offload Wellbeck, but for ManU I still think it's a shame tbh

Luiz Adriano has scored five for Shakhtar vs BATE - they're currently 7-0 up away from home. Bayern currently having to settle for 7-1 away at Roma.

seems like that first RM goal could only have been duplicated by coutinho-sterling in place of james-ronaldo
i mean i guess LAZAR needs some playing time and they're three down but coutinho seemed like one of the few creative players out there today imo

Lallana just wasn't sharp enough when he came on, always looked a half-second off when making decisions esp as Real took their foot off the gas for a period there in the 2nd half. Liverpool fans annoyed with Balotelli swapping shirts with Pepe going into the dressing room.

― mizzell, Wednesday, 5 November 2014 20:00 (nine years ago) link
He's excellent. Must be carrying a long term injury, though. He is the best striker in Russia but rarely plays more than a half.

― Wristy Hurlington (ShariVari), Tuesday, 25 November 2014 20:31 (nine years ago) link
just the usual from manchester city in europe, hart is great so long as he doesn't have to think about what he is doing, kompany can't cope with clever movement, apart from aguero who is their best player by miles now (15 in 25 in the cl for city) they are useless
no yaya tonight so a missed opportunity to see him reprising his usual traffic cone role vs a fast pressing midfield

Why are PSG so terribly uninspired and lazy and nihilistic in the CL? Do the players want to get rid of their trainer or owner or something? Abysmal.

not really, guardiola said before the game that as much as they were serious about winning, to be at their best a team need to be slightly afraid, with no material consequences to losing and perhaps their entire first choice midfield out, this is what happens
aguero though
― disconnected externalized and unrecognizable signifying structure (nakhchivan), Tuesday, 25 November 2014 21:51 (nine years ago) link
Ikr decent second half performance and then go and concede a goal from a corner with 2 mins left. 3rd goal conceded from a set piece in the CL so far. Even so if they won it would still all be down to the next match against Basle.

seems a bit of a contradiction that the man so moral to be above committing a professional foul has no problem purposefully creating a water logged pitch to give his team an advantage.
― mizzell, Friday, 12 December 2014 17:48 (nine years ago) link
yeah i thought the same thing but his argument would probably have been that it affected both teams equally, rather like the anatole france quote about rich and poor both being forbidden from sleeping under bridges

From a Leverkusen perspective, Atletico doesn't feel like the total nightmare Real/Barca could have been. Nonetheless totally hopeless, and inevitable after bottling going through first in the last two matches...
