    Real Madrid my head wants....their defence is poor imo and the GK is ****e. How he's Real Madrid's goal keeper I'll never know... actually I do know, it's to do with a broken fax machine!

    I suppose my heart wants Roma.

    I just want to avoid BM. They're a very savvy team.

    They’re not the side they were, as we showed. But experience counts for a lot at this level. And they’ve still got nous.

    As I say, both Real and Bayern players have been here many times before. That’s their main advantage, imo.

    What comedy? We're in the SF and beat Man City home and away.

    A SF at the start of the competition would have been more than acceptable.

    We're a European giant, hence being in the last 4.

    Playing them in the group stages is a whole different story to playing them in a Semi Final. Huge difference.

    I agree. Still, there’s little doubt that Real aren’t quite the side they were, their league position shows that.

    But experience and tactical nous count for a lot at this level. Those guys have been here so many times before.

    Yeah on a serious level Real have to be favourites.

    The good thing is this Liverpool team don't scare and are more than capable of tearing anyone a new arsehole.

  10. Tottenham, Manchester United, and Newcastle are interested in signing Southampton's 28-year-old England left-back Ryan Bertrand. (Sun)

    So, Spurs, United, and Toon want to buy Bertrand, yeah?

    Can you spot the odd-one out, lads?
     
    #22530

  11. Yep.

    Not many teams have dry humped you, this season, to be fair, mate.

  12. Tottenham and West Ham want Barcelona's 24-year-old Portugal midfielder Andre Gomes. (Mirror)

    You know the drill, lads!

    Spot the odd one out...

    That Neves goal from last night is ****ing ridiculous...

    Always thought he should have come straight to the PL. I know his agent is connected to Wolves or some **** but he's a top top player.

    That was a weird day. Usually we beat you by about 5.

    Really odd day that. I think the squad were ill. Bird flu or some ****.

    Nah he chipped it up slightly behind him then volleyed it into the top corner from about 30 yards. Crazy skillz.

    No you don't usually beat us by 5....only in your golden era when you had Suarez...we were having the dominant period before your time....now it's swinging our way again in the head to heads, yeah <ok>
