One of the greatest games ever and I’m having to listen to Rooney and Seedorf moan about a lack of defending

Thought it was quite obviously a joke. 

 

Olise is quality, but did have the opportunity to shoot with his right foot in the situation I was referring too. 

I missed your joke, then.

Rooney is a boring nonentity as a pundit. His accent and voice grates on me. And he is so lightweight with his "analysis".

You guys overestimate both teams because they have a great ability to attack compared to all other teams. Rarely the best attacking team won the CL. Either PSG or Bayern will have huge issues against Atletico or Arsenal. 

Happily bet against that. They're both miles ahead of the other two. Atleti's defence is shit nowadays and Arsenal's has shown cracks lately.

Rooney is unbearable. The guy has an Antarctica value IQ, he has no clue about tactics in football.

my 11 month old decided this evening of all evenings she'd stay up for 2 hours longer than usual

Never bothered him in his managerial career.

Give it a rest. If either PSG or Bayern play at that level against either Arsenal or Atletico it’s a total no contest. Different type of game admittedly but they would still school them.

Two managers not afraid to let their extremely talented attackers go for it and not worry about the defence or how many passes they made in their own half .

Be so different to tonight watching Simeone or Arteta try and grind out a result.

Supposedly Madrid aren't quite the defensive dogged team they once were in their pomp. 

But obliviously won't be the same attacking quality as last night.

I'd say the latest style is try to score twice very quickly, then be the team everyone knows they are from the past.

[filbertway]

I'd expect Atleti to beat Arsenal over 2 legs.

 

Expecting to see 1 shot on target first half and Arsenal score with a Gabriel header in the 78th minute.

 

Best thing that can happen is a couple of early goals for Atleti, bust that sheeeeeit wide open

Atletico aren't quite the defensive watch they once were, they've scored loads of goals in this season's competition..

In a way he is

God look at that Arsenal lineup. What an uninspiring front three. It’s like that meme of the three dragons. From Kvara, Dembele, Doue and Diaz, Kane, Olise… to the table-topping Premier League side turning up with Martinelli, Gyokeres and Madueke.

How dare you, when it’s comes to running down blind alleys, or tripping over your own feet no-one beats our wingers and as for Gyokeres…..

[Vacamion]

 

Griezmann, Athletico.

 

I'm still angry, you cheating little shit.  

 

 

 

Gwon Arsenal.   

 

(Then lose to whoever wins the other semi).

Ten years ago Fletch, he was playing in the Championship. Noo eez in the Champions League!

[RowlattsFox]

Don't think anyone is being particularly negative but it's such a come down in quality from last night. 

[foxfanazer]

Yeah that's enough of this one for me
