Champions League Semi Finals (9th - 17th May)

[Norman Brownbutter]

The pearl clutching from the bt commentators is just priceless

 

[lex talionis]

Yes because Casemiro looked like the weak link in the Madrid side that won everything with him didn’t he. The revisionism surrounding him this last month or so is just insane.

Indeed. It's quite remarkable how after a decade or so at the top of the game Casemiro has been revealed to be the true fraud that he is. His mask has been lifted.

 

[Dazzmondo]

Hes probably at the only club that can handle him. He'd be a disaster in our team

For sure

 

[90 + 5min]

Drogba/Lehmann-esque from Carvajal. Embarrassing. Why can't refs handle bullshit like that more often and just no sell the feck out of it

Same could be said for Grealish. Embarrassing. He is up there in the top with players who are falling so easy. Ever. And I have watched football for some decades.

 

[Zen]

Would Grealish be considered a ‘chav?’

Yes. Most of the English players would be though

 

[weetee]

City players falling down after every foul like they are shot

Yet they pale in comparison to Carvajal.

 

[always_hoping]

Real Madrid will need to bring a lead to Manchester, so far so good in that regard. City bossing possession but how many clear cut chances for them? Fairly routine saves.

 

[MoskvaRed]

If this were United, I’d be seriously pissed off by Madrid’s antics but it’s very entertaining to see Grealish, Gundoğan and Pep getting wound up.

 

[CloneMC16]

Carvajal is a shithouse. Typical cnut that plays for a Spanish team. Hate that type of player, but if it knocks City out...

 

[Reditus]

Would Grealish be considered a ‘chav?’

Maybe a wannabe chav

for a real chav that would be Foden

 

[TrustInJanuzaj]

feck me, Real have paid this ref.

Not really. He’s managed the game well so far.

 

[Tom Van Persie]

He's won, but he is not exactly at his peak. Modric and Kroos were far worse player than they used to be, they are being dominated easily, and even at their best their midfield was dominated quite often.

Not that I am underrating Casemiro, I just said passing wise, he can be quite poor passing wise even against shite opponent, but he is my favourite United players anyway.

He was their best player in the final last year.

 

[MetoTTT]

KdB disappears as usual in important games.

 

[ManRed]

City bottling the CL again? They've even lost a semi to Spurs ffs.

Embarrassing acting in that half and ref all over the place.

135+ mins of football left. Stop making such posts

 

[WeePat]

Yes. Most of the English players would be though

What is chavy about Grealish?

 

[Dark Side of the Moon]

The commentary is absolutely shameful.

There is bias and then there’s this.

 

[Swedish_Plumber]

Madrid have so much pace and technique on that left flank.

I’m very jealous they have camavinga. Think he’s class

 

[Salfordlad70]

This game is on Network tv here in the USA (CBS main channel). The amount of injury feigning is not ideal for any casuals that may be tuning in.

It’s embarrassing tbh. It’s a very slow and tired looking Madrid team and city will wear them down eventually. That said, Vinci Jr

 

[TenonTen]

Jack's hair with that teenage girl band on his dome is absurd.

He pulls it off imo. Looks great. Lad's got the drip.

 

[Tom Van Persie]

BT ruined the CL. Bring back Clive.

 

[JPRouve]

Would Grealish be considered a ‘chav?’

No a chavette.

 

[cyberman]

What kind of a mentality is that?


Your representing your club in a CL semi.


Why on Earth would you care about your opponent's credentials during the match in the heat of that moment? That would be the definition of loser's mentality.

Jack does care, hence the mouthing.
He hasn’t earned it nor will a winner in Carvajal care. It’s smalltime but that’s Grealish for you.
It would be like Haaland getting in Rudigers face at the halftime whistle after being dominated. What are you trying to prove when you can’t prove shit when you get the ball?

 

[Hakara]

Wasn’t advatage. It wasn’t a foul.

Alright, I'll put Putins invasion on the note as "not a foul". Cause that was as fecking obvious as his "special military operation" was. I hate both teams equally, but guess you won't find that on a utd forum.

 

[lex talionis]

Real need to finish off these fukks in the first leg and not leave it up to chance.

 

[Oranges038]

Pep isn't going to get much out of te officials in the Bernabeau. Whingy cnut. Thoroughly delightful watching Real putting the boot in on City.

On a side note McManaman has to be the most annoying cnut going on commentary.

 

[Verminator]

Trying to look at the bright side. If Madrid beats City they would have eliminated 6 Premier League teams in two years. It would be sweet after reading so many times that any other league is a farmers league.

Has La Liga ever been called a farmer's league?
I thought it was a ref-buying cheater's league.

 

[calodo2003]

That dink by Modric into Camavinga’s path is sublime…

Honestly that hair band is like 90% of the reason that I can't stand him.

 

[DickDastardly]

Grealish goes down with a slight breeze

Annoying that.

 

[Jacky Quacky]

Only Bazuno and Meslier have a lower save % in the league. He is great on the ball alright but the main role of a gk has and always will be to keep the ball out of the net.

Don’t think that really matters nowadays when man city are on course to win the league with the same goalkeeper…again

 

[Andycoleno9]

KdB disappears as usual in important games.

You just needed to say that? Ffs...you jinxed it now.

 

[WeePat]

Drogba/Lehmann-esque from Carvajal. Embarrassing. Why can't refs handle bullshit like that more often and just no sell the feck out of it

Legendary that

 

[rpitchfo]

Really enjoyed that half of football. Very tactical affair, lots of tension.

 

[JimmyWils]

He pulls it off imo. Looks great. Lad's got the drip.

There's a reason people make fun of him so much. He looks a tit with that thing on his head.

Also at some point one of his shins are gonna get properly cut up, this stupid low sock tiny pads thing he's started needs to stop.

 

[Blood Mage]

Football 'eritage and all that... nah but City will still win the tie unfortunately.

 

[BusbyMalone]

This is peak Madrid and it's fecking great!

 

[krazyrobus]

Not really. He’s managed the game well so far.

By allowing Carvajal to body Grealish into ad boards, or the trip to stop an obvious counter or allowing Rudiger to body check Gundogan when he had zero chance of winning the ball?

 

[cyberman]

Alright, I'll put Putins invasion on the note as "not a foul". Cause that was as fecking obvious as his "special military operation" was. I hate both teams equally, but guess you won't find that on a utd forum.

I don’t think it’s a foul. He kind of falls forward while dragging his back foot. Imo he sees the penalty area and goes for the pen but goes down a little early so Camavinga just slides across in front of him without contact.
I’ll see if I can find it again

 

[TenonTen]

It would be like Haaland getting in Rudigers face at the halftime whistle after being dominated. What are you trying to prove when you can’t prove shit when you get the ball?

He did that because he was provoked and deliberately shoved into the ad boards.

What player would react well after being shoved there?

 

[cyberman]

Ad Boards doesn’t play a factor.
