    Can not believe the state of Silva's own. Deserve to go out due the arrogance of that alone

    Man City only have themselves to blame. All that possession but trying to play through Madrid when they had 11 men camped on their 18 yard box after 45 mins

    It wasn’t a panenka. Keeper dives it just looks like a
    Pen down the middle. I reckon if a keeper stands still he saves more penalties personally. They’ve obviously done their homework. I’ll not be interested in this any more personally

    Can't say I'm sorry that City and Pep got beat. Don't like either of them.

    Any combo is a tasty final there mind. All German affair? Mbappe current club v his next club? Brilliant.

    I’d like to see him win it and an all German final would be a great watch but I can’t see past Real Madrid now.

    I agree mate. However, I'll never understand why a professional footballer feels the needs to risk a miss (save) like that on the off chance it goes in and the player can be creamed over a bit more. I don't like the bloke, but you'd never see Shearer ****in about like that.... other than when his arse fell out against big Tommy like.

    Yessss Jude laad. Just said Jobe was watching him from the stands for the first time in a Madrid shirt.

    Basically meaning Sunderland knocked City out of the CL. Top lad. :emoticon-0103-cool:

    Fancy Liverpool to at least give themselves a chance. Early goal and they are right back in it.

    I certainly wouldn’t rule them out.

    Delighted that the Villa game kicks off at 17:45. I’ll watch that then West Ham v Leverkusen but switching to Liverpool if they make it interesting <laugh>

    It’s not really the off chance is what I’m saying. The off chance is the keeper stands still. How many pens get smashed down the middle? Loads I reckon. When I coached kids, I told the keeper to stand still middle of goal for pens. We conceded 3 goals and he saved 6 out of 9 against us that season.

    Good from a scheduling perspective, but another nail in the coffin of what was once the greatest tournament in football.
    The romance of the cup, the ability for small clubs to earn a payday at Old Trafford or Stamford Bridge by taking teams to a replay - it's a shame to lose that, but I guess everything has to move with the times

    Bad. Caters for the top teams once again. The FA and PL came to the agreement to scrap them, did the EFL or non league teams not get a say?
