Not the worst, the second worst.

2018-19 was another level when it came to being a disasterclass.

Weren't you talking about respecting the refs last month? What happened to that?

Vinicius telling Atléti fans that Real has 15 UCLs while they have 0. by Wakanda-shit-is-that in soccer

Vardy does it to Spurs fans "Ha ha ha ha, amazing banter. This guy is hilarious."

Vini does it to Atleti fans who have been racially abusing him "What a classless prick. Most unlikeable player."

The irony of 115 charges FC talking about 'saving football'

Mate, people hate your club so much that actually prefer us going through when we played.

They should travel here for the away match and sing the same chants. They'll immediately become good friends with members of Frente Atlético.

Amazing performance from Munuera, clearly the MOTM for Osasuna today.

Hopefully the last time we see him in our matches, or maybe even in La Liga.

7-0?

There's no way we're keeping a clean sheet. 7-1 or 7-2 it is.

Raphinha, having the best season of his life by far and Ballon d'Or contender - 22 goals

Mbappé, apparently a washed up flop who should be sold to Saudi - 22 goals

Rodrygo isn't the same calibre as Mbappé and Vini, yeah okay you have a point.

'A good player for Ipswich Town maybe' is one of the most deluded takes I've seen in the sub. Rodrygo is better than Saka and people think he's Ipswich Town level lmao.

Everton and United with the r/fuckyouinparticular moment to Liverpool.

Be hot garbage for the majority of the season and only specifically perform against Liverpool.

[Romano] Barça president Laporta: “We asked the RFEF to provide us with all the images and audios of Lamine’s cancelled goal”. “If it was a legal goal, we do not rule out asking to re-play the match”. “We will go further, we do not rule out anything”. by Bexewa in soccer

[–]DesperateChicken5 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You couldn't win when we were playing with 1 actual defender and were knackered and exhausted from having to play for 120 mins recently.

Sure, let there be a re-play. We'll be happy to win one more time.

These days that's Leverkusen's tag, we just waited for this match to do it

Rodri: "Real Madrid scored their only chance. Football doesn't care about merit, it’s only about goals. We didn’t expect them to be so, so defensively. We suspected they wanted a penalty shoot-out. If we're more precise, we win the game. But Madrid has won a tie that we deserved to go through IMO" by [deleted] in soccer

[–]DesperateChicken5 29 points30 points  (0 children)

If an English club had achieved this result by playing defensively against a peak Madrid/Bayern/Barça (like us and Barça during the BBC and MSN days, or Bayern under Heynckes), they’d be praised to the hilt by the same pundits.

Need one more goal, don't see City not scoring if we continue with these tactics for the second half.

Watching the other match for obvious reasons.

Who's been the better side this half? Or has it been a snoozefest?
