Lol so typical to say that. We got robbed of a legit goal so it's all evened out.
And the official rule is that the foul is given where the foul ends. So inside the box.

That was after the red card hullabaloo so anything could have happened. Not relevant to the discussion.
Yes, GOAT in my avatar, I am Portuguese.
Especially hilarious how many bs pks Madrid gets called in their favor.
Its a good thing this is the worst Barcelona team in years...

You conceded two as well
With 10 men just because Alexis found Terrys back massage too rough and then playing with fucking Bosingwa in the CB position lol.
Fake edit : there's too damn many icons in the OT now, I can't find what I want.

... That was my point.You conceded two as well
Fair enough we went there one up. But they put two past us and we were down to ten men. Got two back in the end. If we can, this City squad can.

Leverkusen has lost all matches they've ever played in the CL round of 16 conceding at least 3 goals in each of them.
Dat Leverkusen
All went to shit when Ballack left.

7th place in PL>winners* in the Russian league
*I'm reluctant to call it winning.
At some point, a player is so bad, their performances become the manager's fault for playing them. Dimichelis reached that point long ago.

I think it's very easy to say Barca weren't excellent given that they didn't click into the sort of high tempo gear we've seen from them in the past, but I honestly think they came here with a different game plan and executed it to perfection.
A subpar team performance won't subdue Manchester City at home like Barcelona just did. A team that doesn't execute their game plan doesn't return from the Etihad with a two goal advantage and a clean sheet. You can question the game plan in itself; it wasn't the most exciting performance they've ever produced, but I certainly think it was an excellent one.
Mascherano was superb tonight.

Ajax is nearly a synonym for scrubs
I apologize and I hope you can forgive me for I can't think of a worse insult than to be called a Madrid fan.

This is what happens when your football players start naming their children after Catalan saints. Sad days.

Our Europa League tie showed otherwise.
Carragher played, result is invalid. When Hulk scores, the entire match should be written off as one where all logic and rationality was thrown out of the window

Busquets is the fucking king.
Xavi and Iniesta have dropped a touch but he holds shit down in the midfield.

Last season, yes. But this season Hulk has been fantastic, shitty penalty-taking aside. 22 games, 12 goals + 10 assists. Took him a bit of time to settle in.
If the game is 0-0 at this point, City are probably playing very differently there and it's impossible to know if the situation presents itself. The penalty was an error and it had major repercussions on the rest of the game and the tie as a whole. That's really all that you can say.
Pls don't lie. We all know
Ronaldo avatar = Madrid fan, regardless of nationality. Welcome to the club.
understandable in Xavi's case since he's 34.
not sure why Karl Pilkington is regressing though.
but I have a few theories

Demichelis should have known he was running the risk going in like that.

I would never, ever disagree with that even if I hadn't said it initially. It was a terrible idea to go for the tackle -- you're getting a red essentially every time when you make that attempt. Let Messi get the shot off, if he scores oh well. Being down to 10 is a much bigger problem than being down by 1 goal. The obvious difference being the location of the foul here.
He had coached him twice and wanted a veteran to replace Kolo. Obviously there is a trust factor there. He admitted that we tried to sign Pepe this summer but obviously we wouldn't meet Madrid's asking price and then he signed Demichelis instead.
While Wolfsburg does get a lot of money from VW, they were born like a company club. Just like Leverkusen, and Bayer barely gives them money if any.
Don't see how Bayern situation could be related to selling the club to a random guy with a lot of oil money to be honest. Allianz, Adidas and Audi all have shares in Bayern, yes, but they account for 24,9% of them so they have no say in Bayern's management decisions. Bayern is still 100% run by old football stars and mostly owned by the fans
In bundesliga clubs can still be successful without having to splash amazing amounts of money in players. They slowly build a great team, made by a great coach, just like Dortmund did

Watching South Park, and the 'fuck's aren't censored. I'm sure they were last time I watched it.
Don't know why, but similar to Always Sunny, I prefer it when they tone down the swearing a bit. The Always Sunny Christmas special didn't seem quite right with all the fucks being thrown around
