Surely if you make him carry an avatar with a Delli Alli pic, doing the 'can you hear me' sign, Bobby will just melt like the wicked witch of the East or Skiddy.

Nah. I'm a good sport plus it will be okay in the new season anyway when he's in reals colours

Who do you want?

Something tells me you're better off playing Real over two legs than in the final.

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.

Ok on a real Tel before you blow a gasket on me, I reckon Real have got the quality to be winning it when you put it like that, but I do think in a one off Pool can beat anyone.


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.

The only way I think I'm going to be able to handle this is to put a largish sum of money on 'Pool to win it - say a grand - and if they do, at least I've made money on it.

And if they don't, yeah I'd lose a grand, but the comedy that ensues from that would be soooo worth it.

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.
 
Funny watching Stevie Me saying no team wants Liverpool <laugh> shut up mate stick to nicking stuff from TK Maxx, I'm sure Isco, Modric and Kroos are shaking in their boots at the prospect of facing Milner and Henderson.

You're a proper Real Madrid fanboy aren't ya?

Mate he left about a decade ago, thought you'd be over it by now <wah>

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.
 
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?

Yep.

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

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

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 ****.

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>
