Two guys are lost in the jungle and hear a lion’s roar. One of them sits down, takes off his boots, and starts to put on track shoes. "Planning to outrun the lion?" his friend asks. "Nope. I’m planning to outrun you."
Costa should have had a penalty. Nasty game, Verrati what a nasty little **** he is, a modern day Billy Bremmner. How many of these CL games are full of cheating and bad feeling.
That sending off is exactly why I despise Chelsea so much. For all the money they have they play **** football and are a bunch of cheating bastards. And have all the luck as well.
A lot of the teams that regularly play in the Champions League are full of cheats and arseholes. That contributes to them getting there year after year, unfortunately. Diving, being consistently aggressive towards opponents, pressuring the officials and overreacting to tackles are all standard. How to change it? Introduce the stuff that we've talked about on here repeatedly. No talking to the officials unless you're the captain and even then only in a respectful fashion. Punish divers and cheats via technology and clamp down on managers openly talking utter **** all the time. Mourinho doesn't believe that there's a campaign against his side, but he's pushing it to the media to influence officials. Ban the ****er and do the same if he dodges interviews or becomes completely uncooperative, too. We had enough of that crap with the old Scottish bloke at Old Trafford, thanks.
Hitler's plan #144.Oh sorry.Silly me.Mourinho's plan #144.Get Ibra sent off and we're home free.Try and make it two.Their other striker needs to go too!
Shakhtar's night just keeps getting worse, doesn't it? A man sent off after 3 minutes and 4-0 down. Ouch.
Completely agree PNP. I don't always agree with Souness but I do agree with what he said at half time about gamesmanship deciding these big matches rather than the actual football. With Chelsea it all stems from Mourinho. The sooner someone stands up to him and he gets what he deserves the better but I doubt it will happen. I'd love PSG to hold on and then win on penalties but you know Chelsea will get a lucky goal in the last 10 minutes to go through.
I actually wanted Chelsea to go through tonight, both to help England's coefficient this season and to give them more games, but I'd laugh now if they went out. They've actually got me agreeing with Mark Lawrenson, it's that bad: "That first half was everything you don't want football to be...especially when you have two talented and gifted teams." That should be Chelsea's new motto: Everything you don't want football to be.
Yep cheers RCL in my anger at Chelsea I forgot about the away goal. Chelsea again are just lucky. You know if that was a team against us that would have hit the near post and gone in. I never ever want Chelsea to win I couldn't care less about the fact it helps give english teams more points! The sooner they are out the better!!
