alright definitely over

 

Dude just doesn't stop scoring does he?

 

This is hilarious, a player publicly telling the club’s owner and board to stop acting so incompetently and actually get a strategy in place

Silva to Chelsea board: Get new transfer strategy

 

Who does Boehly listen to, though? Silva or James Corden!

 

Time wasting while leading 4-0. Pathetic

 

Imagine listening to James Corden in any capacity this isn’t involuntarily forced upon you

 

Thats more of a handball than the other one

 

Coventry's goalkeeper just scored in the last minute! Always a novel occasion when a goalkeeper scores.

 

Stop giving cards to our bench you idiot

 

Worst ref performance. Always when City plays. Must be a coincidence

 

Sent him off, repeated time wasting

 

I think we all know the answer to that...

 

Clearly they were paid off.

 

That would explain a lot. Remember 2 years ago against Dortmund when the ref blew the whistle right before Haaland was about to score on an open net and the ref gave a freekick for Dortmund instead? A CL ref cannot be so incompetent.

Of course Turpin was not responsible for us going out today. But as Tuchel said after the game: when you need a small miracle anyway and then on top the ref decides everything against you, that doesn't really help and makes it even more difficult.

 

Tbf the only reason you scored was an absolutely nonsense penalty

 

True, nonsense when using common sense, but according to the rules (especially how they are enforced in the CL this year) it was a penalty. Just like the one that City got.

 

tuchel can fuck right off with that quote, no matter how correct he may be. Hiring him was idiotic and he has been garbage since coming on.

“I’m very satisfied with both games against City, it was absolutely top. We went toe to toe with the best and most in-form team in Europe. We had them on the hook in both legs. There was a difference in self-confidence and form. For the few chances we conceded in both matches, we were punished. I don’t think the scoreline reflects the tie.”

you got absolutely worked up and down the field. Any satisfaction could only come from the fact that it eventually ended.

 

football fans are convinced every ref is against them so much more than in american sports. it's wild.

 

Idk, I feel like NBA fans are exactly on the same page with that sentiment towards officials.

 

every sport has the same level of ref hate/blaming

 

Totally missed the mostly B/C-squad for Mexico and US played last night. 1-1 draw making five consecutive games vs Mexico without a loss. That’s fun.

 

As they say around these parts: "who's the wanker in the black?"

 

Uhh, it's REALLY bad in the college ranks.

 

Poch going to Chelsea would likely be the tipping point for a lot of the fans.

 

That would be quite funny, but it means you have a very good shot at Nagelsmann.

(assuming Carlo Ancelotti doesn’t leave Real Madrid)
