PSG ne sera pas sur cette chose - It's the Champions League 2017-2018 thread

luv2see The Chels catching on <3

Chelsea geezers have said "Chelse" for ages, no? Rhyming with "else"? Maybe they spell it "Chels". "The Chels" seems like new depths in abomination, though.

it's no "The Arse"

The beeb live blog had a photo of a scarf like this last night, Teh Chels vs Barcelona.

Yeah I saw something similar - I was musing on whether the scarf was
(a) reflecting and responding to an actual Chelsea-fan useage, or
(b) a scarf-making fool being out-of-touch with fans but close enough that they can sell these things at or near the ground, or
(c) a result of the scarf-makers having been threatened by Chelsea lawyers / RBKC trading standards; "The Chels", not being trademarked or copyrighted or whatever so it's the closest thing to "Chelsea" they can get away with?

Needn't be an either/ or I suppose.

(I've no idea whether they have been threatened by trading standards or trademark lawyers, obv, or whether "The Chels" is a registered trademark.)

I am very cross with Chelsea about the Ethan Ampadu business.

Pogba benched. Burn it all down Jose

Looks like a fucking league cup team tbh

smh.

I don't think I can take watching tonight.

Here's a stat for ye lads

spurs are 5th in england with plus 28th goal difference, sevilla are 5th in spain with -4 goal difference

RIP Herrera, enter Pogba anyway, after 16 minutes

midfielder loses the ball -> defender picks up and panics -> pass to De Gea - De Gea sends it in the stands

I hate myself for watching this. ManU are the new Chels.

(the bad Chels, not last night's)

fucking longball garbage

even if we do somehow fluke our way through here, I dread to think what a top team would do to us

it's woeful. mou burning down the club otm.

untold millions spent and they can't complete a simple pass

I'd fancy Martin O'Neill's Ireland to give this side a game tbh

I am this close to choosing a different English club to support. It's one of the benefits of not being English, not having that burden of a club being unbreakably connected to you at birth. It'd still be with a heavy heart, but I'm sure the pain will go away quickly once I embrace a side that ACTUALLY PLAYS FOOTBALL.

I just can't take this any more.

Join usssssssss.

:D You're def up there! Would be nice to at least have a slim chance of winning a decent prize during the remainder of my supporting days though...

I thought about City. I like the way they play. We don't have a City fan on board. And sure, it's the easy way now, but you'll thank me for becoming a fan two years down the line when it all falls apart.

If LJ offers a sizeable yet fair amount of money I'll consider Charlton, too.

Pogba has done nothing since he came on, trots around like a prized pony,,

What lovely hair though

LBI you know there's only one thrill ride you want to jump on

Arsenal the brave choice

Liverpool: its great craic

brilliant footballs from manu there

tactical masterclass

Right back atcha slick <3

Arsenal is the brave choice, agreed, but I'm not that brave. The fam would eat me like Wayne Rooney digs into his third chippy butty. Slow and extremely painful for all involved. And we've got Liverpool covered iirc.

I think I'll just sit it out.

Moyes-LvG-Mourinho though. One wrecking ball after another.

Pretty good result for Shaktar, but it should've been 4-1.

(head's up: look away when Serhij Kryvtsov lands and folds his ankle :-/ )

XP letting fergie off there imo

Incredible saves from the Roma keeper. Sign him up Kloppo

Read some srs hype about him this week

How about not supporting any English club?

Might as well quit ilx the... Hmm...

I don't support any.

Support's a bit strong, rooting for is prob better.

I'll stick with MU for now. It's not like I didn't invest in this relationship, the '99 CL final did it. Time for them to do their part ffs.

I don't support any either, and probably 'root' for Liverpool more than most. Not just because all my mates are fans but mainly that I find their games the most entertaining.

I tend to root for the other side, no matter what tbh. The exception used to be Spurs, but not so much now they are one of the Big Six.

And yknow ilxors

Yeah, that's enough to turn anyone off Spurs tbf.

The zing was in my post else what purpose the post

UK ilx the worst for that imo

You ppl invented self-deprecation it's a shame to see you subsequently launching in with brawler uppercuts like the rough kid in the group that goes to far with the insults.

Very disappointing.

Yeah that's right

You ppl

Come come now, the proliferation of Spurs fans on ILX is downright unnatural.

Only if you don't presume that it is a platform of unusually high quality non

You ppl invented self-deprecation

Oh now I wouldn't go that far.

Bye bye Celtic

Daniel Giraffe = our City fan, idk if he posts though

Typical Brendan 'Shitebag' Rodgers team performance, Zenit are hopeless too. Celtic's best players ate the Scottish players but Rodgers is hung up on guys who were at Man City for 5 years and came on as an 80th minute substitute against Oldham Athletic in the Carabao Cup once.

...are the Scottish players, lol.
