Champions League 2015/16

CJ is out then

They'd have probably missed anyway. It's been that kind of night for them plus all three of their front men are terrible at pens.

[Buzzo]

Are we just playing on until Barca score?

[Muddled]

I just see a Mourinhoesque team whenever I watch Atletico.

Cheating, moaning, defensive bollocks.

Athetico are horrible to watch but they deserved to go through over two legs. Was banker peno for Barca but balances out as Iniesta should have been off. They have to be the most well drilled team I've ever seen. Can't wait to watch them grind out results in the next few games, they really are tough to watch. Totally agree that they look like a young Mourinho side.

It's true but at least it's not Jose. The smaller teams have to find a way to beat the big boys. Jose was unforgivable because he spent a fortune on some of the best players around and played like that.

And he's a cunt.

Couldn't have out it better

Oops.

[Irishnev]

Messi's been ****e

Watching Irish tv and they are saying it might be the off field stuff affecting him, he hasn't been himself recently. No goal in 5 games which is his worst run since 2010!

[Phoenix07]

Who do we want to win the Champions League then?

1. Manchester City
2. Real Madrid
3. Atletico Madrid
4. Bayern Munich

I'd like Atletico Madrid to win it, with Man City second (purely because I want Guardiola to have nothing to do).

Yeah the same pundits were trying to say that Atletico Madrid's achievements this season were a bigger underdog achievement than that of Leicester in the EPL this season and they seemed to be trying to say that Atletico Madrid had spent pennies in the transfer market compared to Leicester.

Think it as Dunphy that was suggesting that Atletico sold all their star players and bought in replacements for tiny figures

Any apart from Real.

I saw that and ignored the comparison as any knowledgeable football fan knows that it isn't true. Yes Atletico sell players but they spend big on replacements - strikers being the obvious area. They are the third biggest club in Spain so the Leicester comparisons are also ridiculous.

Re Messi though - I believe that he is the best player we have ever seen but 5 games without a goal for him is a crisis and he did not play anywhere near the level we expect of him last night. He is always the talisman that wins them games when they most need it and he didn't/couldn't do it last night. I do wonder if there is something going on affecting him, maybe he is simply just tired?
