UEFA Champions League 2018/19

When are BT and the BBC going to realise that Keown talks utter nonsense?

[Manini]

“ITs taking an age, it’s taking too long” harps that willy puller Keown. It’s bound to take ages to do anything if the refs constantly surrounded by 4 Man City wet wipes. What’s the bloke supposed to do?

It would have taken about half the time if he hadn't had to take the captains to one side as a result

[Finnegan]

This is 100% the Finnegan curse in full effect. 

 

I turned over cos the City game just looked like it was going to be a procession and even if there were goals it'd just be City running up the score. 

 

They're now losing and the Atleti game is shit

 

If you're watching the Schalke match... You're welcome.

Winds me up with VAR. all these pundits have been tugging themselves off silly calling for it for years and then when we finally get it all they do is just slate it. Why do our media have to create controversies with everything? Why can something not just be fine, and normal and we just leave it alone.

Because everything has to be controversial, just to be edgy.

Happy for Bentaleb. Really need him in great form for the AFCON.

It’s complete bollocks and probably the thing I dislike the most about modern society (I’m being melodramatic it isn’t but it still pisses me off)

Right decision on the handball, he has his arm out and then only moves it when the ball hits it.

Just the standard attitude towards anything football related sadly. If it's not perfect straight away then worthless, get rid. No desire to be patient, let things develop or improve, whether it's players, managers or VAR.

Cheeky comment from Jake Humphrey there "correct in your decision, not necessarily what the 3 former pros think"

Don’t get me started on that dickhead and the rest of the BT commentary/punditry team. 

 

Saying that it did make me laugh slightly

Jake Humphrey is an arrogant ****

 

Always felt he was a MOTD reject anyway

Made me chuckle, but such a back handed comment; a former ref against 3 players

If there is something we know about footballers is they don’t know the rules

Tells you everything you need to know about what people think about referees and their opinions in football. To be honest though I can’t really defend them, most of them are terrible.

Can't stand him, a massive twat.

 

His whole presenting style doesn't seem natural. Feels like he's preplanned everything. Tries to do clever wacky intros that look forced. In general he just comes across as really fake.

[Finnegan]

That is appalling from Diego Costa

[StanSP]

Costa's miss just then  

 

Just seen the Otamendi handball. Not sure why it took VAR so long to confirm or what to check. It was clear handball.

Apparently the on the pitch screen wasn't working, so the official had to take the word of the video guys

[StanSP]

One hell of a save from Szczesny to deny Griezmann.

Go go gadget arms

 

[StanSP]

Been a good game to watch, despite the lack of goals. Quite fiesty.

 

Only downside is Chris Sutton commentating.

First half was shit imo but better since the break.
