VAR is useless when a moron is using it, I guess.

I’m guessing ref saw it as face to studs and not the other way around.

My guy in Singapore just called and said there is heavy live action on Milan for some reason.

/I told him to bet the farm on Zlatan netting the winner

//no I didn’t

Should've bet it on shitty reds in Atleti-Porto. Had two of them.

Yeah, three reds in a final group stage match with everything to play for seems off.

Atleti was my least favorite team from the group so most likely they’re going to win it all.

Fuck Chelsea. And fuck 6 minutes of stoppage time

Tottenham vs Rennes off after Covid-19 outbreak, say Spurs

Antonio Conte had said he was scared for his squad going into the game having had eight players and five staff test positive for Covid-19; UEFA regulations usually mean matches cannot be postponed unless a club has fewer than 13 players or no registered goalkeeper available

Leo really was carrying Barca. Might miss out on Europa League action at this rate.

Will the Saudis be okay if the team they purchased gets relegated?

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

When the rigging goes wrong.

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Btw this all stems because they put the Man United ball in the pot eligible to play Villarreal when they couldn’t draw them and thus didn’t leave them available for Atleti.

Real are protesting that the draw only be partially redone because the error happened after they drew Benfica lol

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

UEFA refused Real and now they drew PSG lmao

Interesting. Who do we think are the favorites now? I would say there is a clear top four - Bayern and City, Chelsea, Liverpool. Three of the four got favourable draws today.

Yeah, they certainly appear to be the favorites. I wouldn't mind seeing Ajax and Lille making a run though.

I dunno, think we should wait for the third and maybe fourth draws before drawing conclusions

/I think Real's playing some of the best football right now, have gotten better and better as their season's gone on. Militao and Alaba have probably been the best CB pairing this season and Modric is still playing great (he was fantastic vs. Atleti on Sunday). Their draw is tough but they seem to be getting better and better as the season goes on.

Man City converted the extra point against Leeds United

Mmph - Lose 9-0 in consecutive seasons like Southampton did, then we can talk lol

Edit: That said, Saints usurp Leeds in the Premier table today with that lopsided loss by Leeds.
