Looks like Conte wants to leave Inter, seems like he wants out whenever the going gets tough? I reckon they have a chance at the title next season without a major rebuild at least.

The must all be auditioning for a transfer to Man United...

Nah they were diving all over the pitch, not just in the box. United prefer a more targeted approach to their diving...

Also apparently Banega tugged at Conte's hair to see if it was a wig. Conte lost his sh*t and told him he would meet him in the carpark afterwards. Jeez he is the best. Should never have left.

Did he die or is he just fighting for his life in a hospital bed now?

Lukaku seems to be getting a reputation for being a nearly man. 27 years old, tons of goals, but only has one winners medal with Anderlecht when he was still a kid. His goals won't be remembered if he doesn't have any winners medals to go with it.

Lukaku is a serial choker. He always chokes

Lukaku becoming the striker we hoped he would be when he was with us - he was just too young and inexperienced  

Lukaku won't win anything. He is mediocre at football. He relies too much on physicality.

Yep. People will say that it's a team game, which is true, but when you have serial bottler in your team, it's going to cost you titles. I wouldn't be surprised if Belgium end up the same way. All of their star players have won titles at club level, and the guy leading the line for them has won nothing of note and bottles the big moments. It doesn't surprise me that they are yet to win anything with him in the team.

Chelsea manager from the season before  already sacked, his predecessor is about to go. Seriously, Roman has been pretty gentle in the past 4-5 years when comes to firing.

Seriously  ? Conte's response was disappointingly restrained then, I would have preferred him to be a little more....let's say passionate, but obviously I mean violent

I was rough yesterday so forgot all about the matches.

Just caught the highlights of Sevilla against Inter, interesting match except if you are Lukaku and it was one to forget.

He started well enough with scoring a penalty yet had two good chances saved and then contrived to deflect a wayward bicycle kick into his own net.

For the neutral three good headed goals.

 

Can't believe I'm seeing people feeling sorry for an Italian team because the opposition used gamesmanship ha ha...I guarantee it was the other way round inter would bave been just as bad.

Also conte is a whiney bellend,  glad we don't have put up with the prick anymore.

PSG v Bayern seems a much more fitting end to a European season than Liverpool v Spurs 

The biggest game of PSG history. Just another European Cup final for Bayern.

Much easier watch for us 'neutrals.'

Chelsea only team in Premier League top six at disadvantage over VAR

I'd like to know which teams benefited and were screwed from the most incorrect decisions

Huh? That's pointing out the times where VAR corrected an incorrect or missed decision, hardly something to brag about for Chelsea as it means we would have been 'luckier' were it not for VAR

Var also ruled out a goal we scored at Norwich. The ref was happy with it but Var disallowed it, the first instance of var actually overruling a ref on a judgement call. In the same game, var did not give us a pen for a blatant trip on Azpi. Var also overruled the ref's call at Watford, giving them a pen for a supposed foul on Delofeu that Anthony Taylor did not see as a foul. There do not appear to be any proper stats where var calls were not actually made, like the Azpi pen above and the non-reds for Maguire and LoCelso. The stats only appear to show actual interventions rather than non-decisions aka bottle-jobs.

It looks like Conte might indeed leave Inter and he fancies the old Trafford job.

Bayern look like the best side in this tournament. 

But PSG has some lethal pace in that attack, a slow Barca side caused them a lot of problems on the counter, imagine M'Bappe, Di Maria and Neymar getting behind that backline? 

I think we're in for a great final here. 

Hope this final lives up to its hype.

Think Bayern will win.

One of my favourite managers, but he's a flawed person.

I don't get the conflict with Inter. Had a good first season with them despite going trophyless.

Man utd and Liverpool. Not sure who benefited more between the two

Probably not getting the right people in or realizing that Lukaku is sh*t

Both are great attacking sides.

I think the midfield battle will be where the game is won
