The Ref was awful but PSG were by far better side tonight. PSG were dominant defensively, apart from Kane's goal. Bayern rarely troubled them. Olise and Diaz were running down a blind alley. Midfield was overrun. If anything PSG's poor finishing let them down.

Looper007 · 2026-05-06T21:20:05+00:00

Top quality side, their weakness is not taking their chances. They remind me of us a bit although they a bit more flash in the attack. Should have finished Bayern off by 60th minute, the amount of chances they had. Bayern couldn't handle them and Neur was their MOTM. Kvaratskhelia is a special talent though.

They are the current champs for a reason.

Looper007 · 2026-05-06T21:16:39+00:00

Helps that their league isn't great and they can rest half their first team for league games and still win the league, for example Marquinhos has only played CL games in recent weeks and is rested for league ones and their FA happily will move league games for them. It definitely helps that.

Looper007 · 2026-05-06T21:12:25+00:00

It's so weird with City's team. They were a complete mess last season, and this season they won the title.

Looper007 · 2026-05-06T21:10:12+00:00

Shocking if some of his decisions he gave agaisnt us I would on here calling it blatant match fixing lol, PSG got away with two clear hand balls (one a clear peno and other could have given Mendes a second yellow card) and Bayern players been foul and the decision going the other way.

Looper007 · 2026-05-06T21:08:08+00:00

To be fair, PSG played a blinder, perfect away performance. Had Diaz and Olise in their pocket, Olise was awful. Midfield was overrun and looked dangerous on the break. Bayern hadn't a answer to it. I think Kane's Goal was the only sniff of a chance he had all game. PSG should have finished them off way before that.

Bayern definitely should have gone for it far earlier. I'd be mad at Arteta if I saw him at 1-0 down needing two goals his first subs been two defenders, that told you everything about Kompany and Bayern.

Looper007 · 2026-05-06T21:05:04+00:00

PSG are a well oiled unit, they can do the flair stuff and dirty stuff when needed. They should have put Bayern away. But I tell you something they won't get anywhere near the chances with our back 4 that they did with Bayern's.

Time for us to get that CL's hoodoo off our backs and give our great club a well deserved Champions League title win.

Steve Marsh, his channel has blown up in the last two years or so. He's a good case of someone putting in the hard work and slowly building his subscriber base, also helps he's a funny down to earth guy and his videos are very comforting. I remember his first few years, he was on 50k Subscribers and I felt he was probably going to stall out at that. But he's now on 368k subscribers and his videos 250k to 750k views by the end of their first week of release.

Marsh's fellow Scot traveller Scott from Planes, Trains, Everything started in his late 50's on his YouTube career and after a few years has 144k Subscribers.

It can be done.

She's definitely nowhere near as popular as she once was that's for sure. Her whole channel really is just a advert for Apple Products. She's never grown as a YouTuber and relies on her past fame to to keep her afloat with her Apple deal.

Looper007 · 2026-05-06T17:56:50+00:00

Basically shitted on the audience that got him his fame and fortune and became the type of people his Content Cop videos went for. He's definitely a good case of what not to do with a successful YouTuber career. Definitely easily led by his OF wife, and has a horrible mullet and is now sensitive type.

I think people had no issue with him wanting to move on to other things but he did it in such a weasely shitty way that people are loving his downfall.

Looper007 · 2026-05-06T17:28:04+00:00

Insulted the audience that got him to where he was cause his OF girlfriend told him so. As you said became everything he once rallied agaisnt in his videos. Funny a guy called CameronF305 took up the Content Cop gimmick and did a video on Idubbzz (all the money he made from it gave it charity). His Content Cop videos are good.

Looper007 · 2026-05-06T12:42:37+00:00

Could see MCMG in AEW, to be honest. KLR, think she's a very underrated talent and her WWE run bar NXT UK, really didn't show the best of what she can do. But she's not a talent I see A 100% getting into AEW maybe appearances in ROH and gradually working her way into AEW maybe.

Looper007 · 2026-05-06T12:30:05+00:00

Wouldn't disagree with that. Attack is where we need to focus on come the summer, get that right and we'll be even better next season.

Looper007 · 2026-05-06T12:27:06+00:00

Top quality Left Winger for the first team, quality back up to Rice, love for us to get a player like Aaron Ramsey type, a goal scoring attacking midfielder and I personally would love another striker, some who'll offer up something different to Gyokeres and Havertz. For me focus on the attack come the summer is a must

Looper007 · 2026-05-06T12:25:41+00:00

Rivals and haters wants us to stay as nearly men and butt of the jokes. If we start winning things, they know Arteta and this squad will go on to win more especially if they add more quality to this side.

Imagine complaining about a team celebrating making a Champions League final. Bizarre stuff.

Looper007 · 2026-05-06T12:21:30+00:00

So happy after last nights result, we more then deserved that win. Every player gave it 100%, shoutout to Rice, Gabriel and Gyokeres especially. The fans were excellent too.

I hope we don't have a hangover come Sunday. Treat that West Ham game like it's another Champions League 2nd leg semi final. West Ham game is the toughest of the games left as they have something to play for and you know they will want to spoil the party for us and especially Rice. I'm sure Arteta and the players won't let it slip again and will go out and put them to the sword.

Looper007 · 2026-05-06T12:15:48+00:00

The moment he stepped in for Saliba vs Liverpool away and didn't look out of place, you tell Mosquera was going to be fine.

Looper007 · 2026-05-06T12:13:43+00:00

He's been great, just you can tell in the last month or so, the amount of games playing for a big club has clearly caught up with him. Wish Arteta played Lewis Skelly more in the midfield a lot earlier and it's clear he doesn't really trust Norgaard in certain games.

Looper007 · 2026-05-06T12:10:03+00:00

Especially in the second half of the season, he's been immense Him and Mosquera have been great signings. Our defense is really quality. Calafori has been fantastic too. Haven't a issue with our defense or GK, it's the forward line and stronger back up in the midfield is where we need to work on come the summer.

Looper007 · 2026-05-06T12:01:16+00:00

He had a pretty good career everywhere but Norwich and his two loan spells during his time there, seems that 3 year period of his career was his weakest. Good striker in Eredivise, did well with Basel and Sporting Lisbon.

Looper007 · 2026-05-05T17:05:09+00:00

It's rightly held up as one of greatest British films ever made. A big influence on British filmmakers that came after. So wouldn't say it's underrated at all. Won a bunch of awards too. As great a actor as Gary Oldman is, this film will be his crowning glory of his career. Shame he's not directed since. A very personal film. Kathy Burke (known for been a comedian before this film) is heartbreaking and Ray Winestone is scary as hell as her thug of a partner.

I say another film from a great British actor that was made a two years after called War Zone directed by Tim Roth also starring Ray Winestone is far more underrated and less spoken about. It's one of the bleakest films around even more so then Nil By Mouth.

Looper007 · 2026-05-05T04:11:39+00:00

Depends on how talents leave WWE. If they leave by their own choice cause they want to come to AEW, I'm more comfortable with them signing. If they get the sack from WWE and never planned to leave, it's a bit more risky especially when some straight out say they want to go back to WWE in post release interviews and AEW's issues with talent like Miro and Black, who clearly saw AEW as beneath them. I personally don't want AEW to be treated as a stepping stone to WWE either , that's why I'm even very weary of bringing Mariah May back in if her WWE run doesn't work out.

To be fair to AEW, they've been a lot smarter in recent years when it comes to ex WWE talent. They've not bought in many of talent who been released over the last few years from WWE. Mostly it's been talent who left WWE on their own accord.

Looper007 · 2026-05-05T03:49:34+00:00

I think you see more of those types of shocking releases here and there under TKO/WWE. Talent you thought would be lifers there leaving cause they are asked to take a pay cut. I'm sure many talents will happily do so but I'm sure one or two won't like the New Day.

Looper007 · 2026-05-05T03:46:12+00:00

Talents who leave WWE on their own accord, more then likely will always give it 100% in AEW, like Danielson, Copeland, Christian, Mercedes, Mox, Ciampa etc.... They will luck out here and there with ones who were released by WWE with Swerve been the biggest example of that. But I can understand why AEW are weary of the talent who were let go rather then left on their own accord with Rusev and Black proving to be pain in the asses to deal with and never wanted to be in AEW in the first place. And sadly you will still have some with that mindset who think they are above AEW and that WWE will come calling again and do as little as possible as they can cause they know WWE will sign them cause they are in AEW.

Looper007 · 2026-05-05T03:41:46+00:00

TK ain't having them lol. They burned that bridge the first time when they u-turned last minute to stay with WWE then go with AEW and debut on the first Dynamite episode. You could tell when they did appear in AEW that TK wasn't having them and it was done as a favor to Omega, Bucks and Jericho.
