Champions League 2015/16

[StephenH]

So all four ties alive. Bayern are best placed of the favourites (no away goal), but even Barca with their help are a 1-0 loss away from exit.

City are best placed

Thanks BT we missed the feckin goal cos you showed us another feckin replay!!

That was the world feed, not BT. Was the same in the States.

Yeah I quickly realised after I posted that it's the feed from whatever country broadcasts it. Irritates the hell out of me, why do they feel the need to show 5 replays when the game is going on? At least put the game on in one corner of the screen so we can actually see what we are paying for.

Lol at Marcelo's dive from last night

Lol at Marcelo's dive from last night

Marcelo in being a clam shocker. Remember his reaction to Crouch's sending off a few years back:

Very good player but an absolute clam.

 

[P.D.]

And he's (T. Silva) the least expensive of them iirc

Not quite, he's the second most expensive defender of all time (behind Rio).

Luiz and Mangala where both more expensive than rio though, so that doesen't really add up. Luiz cost 50 (!) Million and mangala was 43 million iirc.

I'm only going by Wikipedia but looks fairly accurate to me.

What do we feel Real's chances are to qualify? they're currently ruining an accumulator I've got going

EDIT: Was certain that Real had lost 3-0. Was there a disallowed goal or something? I wasn't even drinking at the time.

Plastic flags for a CL quarter final?

It's the El Plastico after all.

What an atmosphere...said nobody ever at the Etihad

 

[Rorschach]

Agueroooo..........oh

 

[paxtonwolf]

Its fine by me, getting your misses out of the way tonight, put them away v Arsnal

 

[Kandi1977]

Not even hitting the target from the penalty spot is just not acceptable! Terrible from Aguero!

 

[Rorschach]

Doesn't look good for Aguero

 

[paxtonwolf]

Not even hitting the target from the penalty spot is just not acceptable! Terrible from Aguero!

He gets enough practice too....

I predicted a 4-1 win at home for them. With them 2-0 up after 18 minutes, I was maybe a little optimistic on Wolfsburgs behalf.

Great finish by De Bruyne, what an excellent young player he is going forwards !
