That was fecking amazing.
I thought football had changed forever. Ajax played Real Madrid a thousand million times in the past ten years and always lost 4-0. The Champions League is supposed to be the same teams every year. Real, Barca, Bayern, etc.
We could only dream of maybe some day sneaking a 1-0 against Real Madrid in a dead rubber group match if all the luck went our way. Going to the Bernebeu in the knockout round and tonking them 4-1 in the was something that was never going to happen (did it happen?). Even being in the knockout phase hasn't happened in 16 years.
These lads, they could go all the way. But it doesn't matter. 4 fucking 1. And how. Galacticos get outplayed on all fronts by a combination of kids and undervalued journeyman pros. Lasse Schöne mic drop indeed.
That Southampton no longer wanted Dusan Tadic tells you everything you need to know about the Premier League. 9 goals in 14 European matches this season.
Oh and Sergio Ramos: you'll be good and fresh for the rest of the season now.Last edited by anton pulisov; 06-03-2019, 00:04.

Not quite the same as CR7 huh...
Oh, and Nacho got sent off for two yellow cards in the space of five seconds. I don't think I've ever seen that. He double dipped. James McClean must be jealous of that level of shitfuckery.Last edited by anton pulisov; 06-03-2019, 00:37.

Worth mentioning here that becuase of the rearrangement to ensure the top 4 in the 3 'big' countries plus Italy get straight into the groups Ajax will have to win the Dutch league and then get through two qualifying rounds (or finish second to PSV and win thru 3 qualifying rounds )to make the group stage next season. Or win this season's version, of course. Still, whichever club finished 4th in Serie A, 40 or so points behind Juventus deserves that spot!

Meanwhile people here and on Facebook are still overexcited by Real's exit. I mean, understandable given their dominance of the competition - but, be honest, they've been absolute whiss all season.

We all had a good laugh when we saw the Manchester United squad travelling to Paris yesterday. A real second round Coca Cola Cup squad including a midfield of Butt, Carrick and Phelan. But the magic of Solskjaer has seen to it that instead of the supine surrender we'd expect from previous post-Fergie United teams (though it's worth mentioning that Moyes overcame a two goal deficit in the CL to progress) I still think we have a chance. This goes against all logic and reason, but fuck it. Why not. If we get the first goal, possibly from Chong, or Garner, or Greenwood, or Alex fucking Notman or Graeme Tomlinson or whoever the fuck is in the squad, I think we'll do it. They'll crumble exactly like they didn't in the first leg.
God, I've missed this feeling of hope masking acceptance. Can't wait to enjoy that hollow feeling in my stomach when PSG score after about 90 seconds.

Do many clubs have them? In the UK three seats together in the main stand and use of the general players' family area is about as good as it gets.Last edited by Nocturnal Submission; 06-03-2019, 12:32.

Originally posted by G-Man View PostSpurs did well, but going in 3-0 up against a thoroughly demoralised opposition was never going to a cliffhanger. I'd have put money on a 1-0 to Spurs. Whereas I'd not have put a dime on Ajax even scoring two at the Bernabeu.

Dortmund weren't 'thoroughly demoralised' - they pressurised us relentlessly in the first half and it was only Lloris who prevented them from gaining traction in the tie. Obviously, Kane's goal put paid to that.
We're happy to keep it all under the radar. I appreciate that that's not possible for those who support a brand.
Spurs are a brand too, possibly the first one - remember "There used to be a football club over there".Last edited by Ray de Galles; 06-03-2019, 13:57.
