Anyone for a CFC vs Bayern final ? In all fairness, if we can defeat barça... well I don't want to curse the team, but I'd have a great feeling about the CL if we get past them! Otherwise, I think the UEFA has hoped for that Messi vs CR7 final for so long ... they were close to get it in 2012, they may want to have it this year ! Unless...

Pass me some of the stuff you are having. I probably would said the same in 2012 though.....

And look how it turned out ! But I do think that this year's final will be a clasico. There's something that tells me real will face barça. We're a lot to write off Real, but no kidding : they can be atrocious in la Liga, they'll always show up! They can play uglier than ugly and still go through and win the cup!!! They've won 12 of them more or less like that. As for Barça, they look relentless. And will tear to shreds any english clubs ... Safe us ?

Veratti not only got a yellow but 2 now! What are the chances? I thought he was immune

there could be a few players leaving PSG this summer...but we'll only buy the burnt out ones

I'm even boring myself with the times I come out with it but if there is one player at the top of my wish-list it's Veratti. Watched the first half last night and thought he was brilliant - EXACTLY what we need. Happily receives the ball in tight spaces and turns one way, then another and comes away with ball at his feet and sets up move after move. f**k me, how we could do with him. I know he has an edge to his game which means he will pick up yellow and reds but I'd take him in an instant - he's like another Dennis Wise only a LOT better.

Trouble is, every top club will be after him and we'll have zero chance with no CL football next season.

 

I wouldn't put it pass us winning the cl this season that's how our luck normally work's

Nah it's gonna be like 2 years ago and just kinda fizzle out like a damp squib.

To win the cl you need some natural leaders in the squad. Azpi might fall into that category but not like JT, Lamps or Drogba would.

Take that back! There's never been a player better than Dennis Wise!

But can Veratti do it on a cold European night in Milan?

Veratti is also immune to getting yellow cards at Stamford Bridge, now that's a booster.

Milan? Surely Tromso was a colder night! Would Veratti need long sleeves & gloves?

Are Juventus wearing one of our old away kits?

Edited March 7, 20188 yr by Valerie

JUVE !!!! JUVE !!!

Come on Juve !!! Stuff them f**kers !!

That was a pen imo.

Refs bottled it, you could see it written all over his face. That was a clear foul.

Juve should have had a penalty there - officials not doing their job again

Vertonghen clearly late on his tackle as Costa passed him. Clear pen indeed. he does not touch the ball.

Both teams should have had a pen imo.

If refs carry on their antics, you could bet your mortgage that barça and Real are already ensured of playing the final

Veratti would probably need a kneck warmer as well.

Still shocked that game went ahead. Pitch most of been a little icy, surely. Sparky need no kind of other attire, just shorts and shirt.

 

Juve being dominated though ...

Luca scored with his arse if I remember rightly. 

Sandro isn't worth 60m

As much is it pains me to say this Spurs side is quality. Pace and power like we used to be. Impressive that walker leaves and Rose gets booted out and Trippier and Davies come in with no real effect.
