I would imagine Chelsea have spent more on assembling their squad than all the rest of the teams combined that participated in this season's competition.
The fact that Chelsea have walked their competition whilst playing their 2nd squad, some of whom haven't played any games in the League, proves they are way overpowered and over financed for the EC. If they don't win it with ease, there is something wrong
They have not met anyone have they? Teams that might be second tier europa sides in another year. However real bets and fiorentina in the other semi final might be considered half decent and requiring Chelsea first team to play
We? Liverpool have six teams in the CL. That is some achivements!! There is only oñe team from the EPL that counts. The other four from the EPL are as foreign as those from Italy, Germany and elsewhere. And fingers crossed oñe of Spurs or Bodo will win the Europa!!
But if Spurs do make it through, I would want Spurs to win as I just loathe Manchester United. Have done ever since 68 when I wanted Benfica to win!!
Going to be fascinating when the first hairy-arsed, pumped-full-of-testostreone, bearded, 16-stone female-to-male transsexual is forced to use the ladies' toilets. I dunno who's gonna police this, but if it's me I'm bursting to stop lifelong, professional man-hater (and recent bff of JK Rowling) Julie Bindel from entering a women-only space because she looks like Les Dawson playing Ada. FFS, what is the utter abhorrence by the Right now for drag queens? They've been a theatrical tradition in this country since Shakespeare, and most of the females of my acquaintance are less scared of Rue Paul's mob than they are of predatory, dungaree-wearing, tattooed, shaven-headed dykes popping up at 3 am in the nightclub toilets than they are of Smoggy Queens. This is what legislating on one bad case causes. That ****rat rapist n Scotland who put on a dress and lipstick to get out of going to a man's prison should simply have been put in isolation if he wanted to play that game. Yes, I know from my daughter who works in mental health services how some game the system, but talk about burning your bed down to catch a flea - are we really going to make transsexuals, the VAST majority of whom are to be more pitied than feared IMO, but who nonetheless never harm anybody of either gender, to humiliate themselves because most are actually prettier than the jealous frumps who despise them? It's the total binary standard that is baffling - "You're either a biological woman, or you're male". That's as medically wrong as saying that the Algerian 'woman' in last year's Olympics was a man: spoiler - she isn't. And JK Rowling/Hopkins The Trannyfinder General, soon backed down when she threatened to sue her. Does that mean a woman can have a willy? Does it ****, and I personally take the view that Germain Greer had decades ago when she said you can't cut your cock off and become a woman (although, er, that's sort of what Lady Colin Cambell did, but let's skate over abnormalities). Or maybe we shouldn't skate over the abnormalities - intersex is a medical condition. Some people are freaks. And some people just want to live their life as a different gender, and, providing they're not harming anyone, is it the end of the world? If you can post those 'cursory' examples I'd be obliged, and while I wouldn't want to trivialise the impact of these cases, I'm sure there are a bazillion instances in which transsexuals have used women's facilities without any problems at all. Anyway, maybe they should be made to wear something like the Jewish yellow star to identify themselves so that they can be stopped going into the opposite gender's toilets. Perhaps a yellow cock? A pink tit? Yeah, just humiliate them. Anyway, ****ing spawny United. It's a **** world when all our hopes are now gonna rest on ****ing Spurs.
Gutted for them. Much rather have seen Forest, Villa, and Newcastle taking those last 3 of the 5 CL places. Btw, does anyone know if we still get 5 CL places PLUS another for Utd or Spurs (please God) winning the Europy?
Yes. England will have 6 in the CL next year if ManU and Spurs meet in the final Could have been 7, if Arsenal won the CL and finished 6th, but that looks unlikely now
Two managers under pressure likely to be in Europe league final. My heart wants Ange Postecoglou to win this.
I think in typical Man Utd fashion, they may get a scare at OT but, ultimately, they're through. I think the Spurs tie is in the balance though.
