Give me a break, Chelsea.

Look, I’m sure OT needs a shit ton of refurbishment and modernization and it’s going to be an expensive uptaking.

But these people are dumb as shit if they knock down one of the game’s truly great stadiums. We’re already losing San Siro. We lost Highbury and Upton Park. Anfield was saved. Just don’t do it.

Maguire is actually the worst defender in history. Not only bad at the back, he’s jostling with fucking Ronaldo for header space lmao

Juventus out...

"We need a super league because we're so much better than everybody else that we haven't won a fucking R16 tie since 2019 and now we can't even win in Serie A."

Poor babies.

Italy's officially a farmer's league. The only Serie A club to make a quarter-finals appearance the last 3 years was Atalanta in 2019-20. The fact they get 4 automatic CL group stage qualifiers is a joke at this point. Give Holland a second ffs.

Liverpool now only 1 point behind Man City in the table.

Unfortunately, Benfica and Villarreal can’t play in the Final.

It’s the hand gestures for me.

I think I read that he's back doing some light training with Bayern. Canada has all but punched their ticket to Qatar at any rate, so let Fonzie get healthy and get him back to 100% healthy.

Portugal’s missing like ten regulars now because of Covid and other injuries. Now Italy’s going through a wave.

If they get to the final they’re gonna be playing Serie B vs. Segunda Liga at this rate.

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

So Italy and Portugal are both seed-worthy over countries that qualified direct like Netherlands, Germany, Switzerland and Croatia but UEFA’s idiotic qualifying system drew them together in the playoff.

Geniuses, these people.

Not really needed yet as was said.

But it would be damn fine if he got into shape to help Bayern out a wee bit. Lord knows they need it lately.
