If they hadn't abolished the away goals rule, you'd be booking your ticket for Wembley. Silly decision in my opinion. I think Real on song will be too much for Bayern.
Read your first sentence again and then tell me how it was silly to abolish away goals. That rule was singlehandedly responsible for gazillions of parked bus borefests.

That is empty handed to me. We should have won that game. Instead we're entering the second leg with nothing to show for and have to play at the most difficult place in football.
Much better going to the bernabeu with a draw or needing an epic win than protecting a lead

Tha latter is basically just narrative doping for our plot armor

Hakimi looks like he should have more hair. I can’t really explain it. He looks like he’s just shaved a fro off or something. His hair looks like Fellaini when he got rid of his.

His head is too big for such small hair, I think that’s it.

Sancho still not challenging for headers over at Dortmund too

Unpopular opinion but Sabitzer is a very good midfielder, impressed me each time he played for us and Dortmund. Should have got more of an opportunity.

Hold up, Ray Hudson does CL commentary on CBS now?! At least they clearly told him to tone down the theatrics, so that's good.

This commentary is sickening :lol: they know feck all about how Sancho has played. He also looks exactly the same as he did for us.

Sancho has shown a willingness to get on the ball but he's been quite sloppy at times too. The commentators praise is over the top. Not a terrible opening but they are overdoing it.

No one from an attacking perspective has stood out really on either team.

I thought I was ambivalent on Sancho until I heard Fletch on comms tonight. Now I wish him to fail in everything in life.

Motm so far is the commentator trying to get us a decent fee for Sancho.

"3 goals in 16 games!? What a player!"

It doesn't actually take long watching Sancho to work out why he doesn't work as a winger in the Premier League.

I normally like McCoist but he’s definitely going to be screaming Sancho‘s name during climax tonight. Hes doing the bare minimum and getting spoken about like he’s prime Messi.

It could be an all farmer CL final in Wembley while England go over to Germany and win the Euros.

"Going back to Dortmund has reinvigorated and reenergised him. He's playing really well."

I bet "Fletch" can't even spell Bundesliga, let alone actually watch it.
