Real Madrid - The European Cup final


Recommended Posts

Zidane, arguably the greatest manager in the history of European competition now despite seeming to do very little. That’s the luxury afforded to certain teams.

 

If I’m forcing myself to be positive, maybe this will be a reverse of 2005-7. Maybe we’ll reverse it and win the thing with a dour display a couple of years down the line.

Yeah I'm much less arsed about this than I expected. Feels like it was a bit of a shot to nothing, we did amazingly to even get here and we'll be stronger next season for sure.

 

Once Mo went off it had an air of inevitability about it.

Game over once Mo went off unfortunately, up until that point we looked well on top. Just didn't expect Karius to win it for them, obviously I should have done.

 

Biggest take for me is yet again how little depth we have. In many ways it's amazing we've got this far.

 

Big summer for FSG.

Guarantee Klopp won't replace him.

I`m inclined to agree with you here. It will a nightmare of epic proportions though. Imagine him getting hounded by opposition players and especially supporters. He`ll be a wreck before each and during every game.

Indeed. Well over achieved making the final. Shame the squad was too thin to compete at an even level. Onwards and upwards.

I mean, three in a row in an era where no-one has retained the trophy for decades is an astonishing statistic on the surface of it. Yet he barely seems to do anything. I’m not even sure he exists in the typical sense of the word and I wouldn’t be surprised if the real Zidane is in the black lodge and this is a doppelgänger.

It's still an exceptional achievement to reach the final. No reason if we build on this and don't short change the manager this summer then this is the beginning rather than the end.

 

Still proud of the team to get this far. We're ahead of schedule.
