Real Madrid - The European Cup final


Recommended Posts

Ignoring the split between what people think is the best version of our team, is everybody in agreement that the AC Milan side is better than this Real Madrid side?

Milan had the best right back ever in Cafu, the best left back ever in Maldini, one of the best centre backs ever in Nesta, one of the finest playmakers ever in Pirlo. Add the other world class players; Shevchenko, Seedorf, Stam to that mix, tou get one of the best club sides the world has ever seen.

The only other side comparable in terms of quality back then was the Juventus team we knocked out in the QFs.

 

Buffon, Thuram, Cannavaro, Nedved, Del Piero, Trezeguet, Zlatan.

it was indeed mate

Cheers mate.

I got nothing done at work. Like a giddy schoolgirl I was staring at the screen and constantly refreshing to check where they were. This fucking club. Gets in every pore. I can barely hold it together.

No wonder we beat them if they were down by 4.

I'm gonna have to watch it on my phone now on the train back from London as I forgot I was taking the Mrs to see a show down there for her birthday booked last December, fucking nightmare.

Treat her to a night in a hotel and watch it London, then travel back the next day.

Told my kids do not get married on Cup Final day in May or during the World Cup Finals to avoid this sort of thing.

I can't wait for this, I'm on holiday in Costa Rica and every cunt here will be cheering on Madrid no doubt on account of kaylor Navas.

 

Travelling on the day of the final and think we check in around kick off, the GF is understanding in that I'll be anxious and wanting to watch it somewhere I just can't be a miserable cunt if we lose.

 

I may have lied on my ability to manage the last bit.

How we managed to get to the fucking final in the first place is beyond me, looking back now. And then to worry ourselves to death about losing to Madrid is just stupid. Let's enjoy this moment that only comes once in a generation, no matter the result.

Once in a generation?

I'm not that older since 2005, 2007 and now 2018.
