Congrats to Carlo, first manager to win the league in all 5 top leagues, AC Milan, Chelsea, Bayern, PSG, and now Real Madrid,....What a  man, what a manager.

 

And all the very best to him in the Champions League Final!

Tammy scores with a cracking header to send Roma through to the Europa Conference League Final.

Never rated Tammy's aerial skills though this was top drawer, will be interesting to see if he can build on this heading ability.

Smalling also pulled down Fofana in the box which looked like a blatant penalty..........

Roma on to the final against Feyenord on 25th May.

The winners get through to the Europa Competition.

 

Much rather have him than Lukaku at this point.

It will be amazing if JM transforms him into a better striker, I thought this happened with Drogba and wondered if JM saw sometihng similar in Tammy.

Might be a false dawn though it would be good to see him become a more rounded striker. 

 

Giroud, Tomori and Bakayoko is one game away from the Serie A title!

Bakayoko hasn’t played since January as far as I’m aware, they’d trigger the clause meaning they have to sign him if he played again.

Great to hear Joe call Jose "boss" 

Jose winning the first ever Europa Conference League. Of course it isn’t as prestigious as some of the other trophies he’s won but it’s a great win for him and Roma, so glad to see him back and happy

First silverware for Jose since 2017, and for Roma since 2008.

On the highlights Rui Patricio looked a busy keeper.

Nice to see JM can still be a winner, a couple more players and perhaps he will do well in the Europa next season..

Being fairly loose with the definition of 'ex', but an interview with Pato:

End of the journey for Mata in England. Still think it's an awful decision to let Mata go, lost that flair and creativity we never fully recovered, and a player everyone loves. Despite playing some 200 games at United, don't think Mata never reached the height he was set out to be. Last couple of years he's been bench warmer for a job, should have moved on

New interview came out from Diego Costa, talks about walking up to Kante naked asking for hugs and that Kante would shower in his underwear, includes a video of him going mental at Kante during a game of Fifa, what a character. 😅

Sheesh. Hopefully he'll recover fully.

 

 

 

Cesc Fabregas documentary on ITV4 tonight at 9, or watch it whenever on demand after.

Hopefully he sheds some light on the legendary 15/16 season

I read an announcement yesterday that Cesc has signed for Como in Serie B.

@Valerie is this an acceptable mention of cleaning solution fc?
