Atletico love playing this dangerous style aren't they ? One goal conceded now and the tie will be a complete mess for them.
Europa Semi Finals

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
Nearly
Don't you fecking dare, Mkhitaryan. I've got money riding on an Atletico clean sheet. 
Europa god
I was going to say is he worse than Tony, then I thought Tony actually has one or two every now and then whereas Bellerin has ruined every glorious opportunity he's had whilst also ignoring his defensive responsibilities.Really? Aren't you forgetting someone?
I've not really seen much call for stamping diving out of the game. Just punishing it properly, instead of what happens now where players get away with dives far too often.This nobody is still entitled to an opinion though.
Back to the point. Diving, if it is caught on the night is a yellow but it is still common opinion that it is cheating that should be stamped out of the game. So the fact that intentional fouling is a yellow card offence doesn't mean that it should be treated any different than diving.
Mikhi loves euro league. Only matter of time for his goal....
I am not really a fan of them either, but to see a team from austria doing sth in Europe is pretty special. Also they changed from Austria's City/Chelsea to Leipzig's feeder/scouting club in the last few years which helps our country much more with them developing great youngsters and homegrown talent, which makes their success more enjoyable for me.
I know first two, who is third guy? Lolzy
Costaaaaaaaaa
Not bad Mkhi.
I thought Alexi Lalas was Brad Friedel
on FS1. They sure sound alike from memory.

No change whatsoever in terms of Arsenal coming into the tie having to score … you know exactly what I meant but have nothing better to do with your evening than argue the toss about the possible context of someone's throw-away comment on a football message board. Be pedantic as you fecking like pal i'll be watching the football with you on ignore from now on
Not sure. I don't watch Bellerin enough but I know that Valencia is fecking shocking. I'm actually genuinely surprised when puts a decent cross in.
Atletico right back has been class. Sign him up Jose!
I thought Nadal was a Real fan?
When is Welbeck's contract coming to and end?
You don't listen to English TV commentaries then?
Yeah, maybe even a bit less hateful.

You meant Thomas? He is makeshift RB. If we're to go with makeshift route then how about Bailly?
If Mkhi was fit enough to play, should have been brought on at half-time at the least.
My takeaways from this game.
Get Thomas in to replace Valencia, Get Saul to add to the midfield, get Griezmann to add to the attack.

Awful ones No idea, awful ones...
Rafa Nadal a Real fan at an Atleti game. Saying that I've been to a City game before.
Griezmann has been wasteful

Wenger routinely brings players on at the 70th minute.
Seriously Arsenal have shot themselves in the foot. So wasteful at home.
How is that not a yellow for Ramsey for a blatant dive?
Arsenal putting up a good fight. They need to stop swinging it into the box though - the Atlético defence seems like 6 Vidics.
How? One had long hair and looked like a hippie. Other is a bald feck.Not bad Mkhi.

Edit: sorry, missed that sound thing

They have a release clause of 1 billion together.
How it's possible to support Atletico and Real? What's wrong with Nadal?
I think he's got one more year. If Wenger was staying he'd get a new deal for sure but I don't expect the new manager to be as willing to keep under-performing players.
I know, but who cares, it's King Eric.
That would be great but I've more chance of winning the lottery tonight and it's not even on.

Rumours that Nadal always has a preference for the underdog....
How greedy is Costa?
