Suprised  to see Rio in the studio when football should have been cancelled due to people’s health....

Had the chance there by Lineker  to back down on what he said earlier over null and void when asked “how great it was to have a chance to finish the season” but the bitter cunt couldn’t even do that just said “yeah triffic it’s great”

They missed a trick by not kicking  Ferdinand the cunt off and getting Klopp in for this match, plus both teams got German managers.

Have to be honest whoever wins it I’ll be jealous as fuck ...

I know the league is great especially after 30 years and it’s the bread and butter and all that but winning big ears and picking up that magnificent looking trophy is just the best feeling knowing the world is watching you do it...

I know it will mean drawing level with us, but I want Bayern to win as Ander Herrera has a horrible, punchable manc face 

See that never bothers me does that as you’re never going to catch Madrid, with this trophy it’s about your team winning it and to be fair Bayern should be on 9 now anyway after Villa, Porto , Utd and Chelsea finals

Have to disagree. Winning the title after 30 years knocks the CL in my opinion.

 

Whatever happens tonight, we'll always be 2018 /19 European Champions.

I should have maybe explained it better this season was always about the league and I wouldn’t change for the world  but winning this is still an unbelievable feeling and maybe because it’s that in the moment feeling when you win it.

Winning the league on the final day would equal it

This years version means next to fuck all though after the change to the format....destroyed it's credibility totally.

Don't agree with that.

 

If we'd have won it again in this format I would have been as elated as the other times.

No problem bud. Everyone's entitled to their opinion.

Not for me.

 

The whole point of the knockout stages is the best teams in Europe clashing over 2 legs in each others grounds....negotiating the away goal rule, mounting the dramatic comebacks like ours against Barcelona last year whilst walking the tightrope of even 1 back for them changed everything, balancing the approach needed across the 2 legs, managing as things change.....no fluke wins in those hard 2 legged ties!

 

Doing that in 3 successive rounds to make the one off showpiece....especially the semi where so much is at stake across 180 mins.

 

This mini version they have played this year is not even nearly the same - and it is ludicrous to play 2 legged last 16 then 1 leg in last 8 and 4.

 

If any competition should come with an asterisk this season it is this.

Nah, if you've never won it before then having this weird one as your only European Cup would lose credibility. When you're on 5 or 6 it becomes just as credible as the others, you've already proven yourself as worthy of being at the top table. 

 

When bayern are on 10, nobody will care about how they got number 6.

Completely agree with this...it's changed too drastically in a lot of the major aspects that makes it so difficult to win in normal circumstances - playing home and away, away goals etc.

I get your point and two-legs is better but this format wouldn't have lessened my enjoyment of victory.

 

All that asterisk bullshit is what bitter losers say.
