Enough already here's the 2016-2017 Champions League thread

think both clubs agreed their schedule couldn't allow that to happen

Meh.

is this what palace - arsenal was like monday night? pass, pass, pass lose ball, dangerous counter attack. wide CB's getting pulled all over the shop by mbappe and falcao.

monaco going for the league and dortmund for 4th doubt either wanted to jam a game in that might mean playing on 1 or 2 days rest. dortmund in german cup semi as well.

Yeah no, I know. It's just a shame.

looking at that sven bender o.g if he didn't head it he was going to handball it! laughable

even if dortmund were unperturbed this wouldve been a fairly predictable scoreline no?

can see why they don't love tuchel

pulisic and sahin on. have no idea who's joining ginter and sokratis at the back, if anyone.

definitely flaky under tuchel esp. when playing 3 at the back but they haven't lost at home for nigh on 2 years so i'd have fancied a score draw tonight at least tbh.

but wouldn't have fancied them in monaco, no.

you can kinda tell why tuchel and pep have such a mutual love in though.

like he did a terrific job at mainz and in year one at dortmund, the improvement in form of mkhitaryan, gundogan back to his best etc but still give me allegri any day of the week.

this is more like it since pulisic came on

much more of this from him and lfc will have to accept they can't afford him and settle on spunking £30m on the ox.

do monaco not do 2nd halfs or what?

game on almost

wtf was sokratis doing on the rw there? btw expecting him to get a red card when monaco break on them this half.

sahin has made a difference since he came on. ah i remember the days when i used to love him and was so excited when he came to liverpool...

well that was an obvious 2nd yellow ignored by the ref.

falcao on utd/chelsea vintage there, phew.

some finish that from mbappe.

Mbappe surely playing in the PL next season right?

Real Madrid might have something to say about that.

Can still get 20/1 on Jardim as next Arsenal manager.

ooooh shinji

what odds allegri? especially if juve win the CL this season.

tuchel's stupid over long coat makes him the favourite for the arsenal job surely?

pulisic reaching navas levels of final ball unfortunately.

ah well. p cool 2nd half.

don't think i've seen madrid play this season?? modric/kroos/casemiro vs alonso/thiago/vidal should be interesting.

The defending in champions league was never as poor

generally i'd except atleti and juve from that.

oof excellent header from benzema

wow neuer got his fingertips to that

i hadn't really considered it but a little amazing that a team as rich as bayern happily goes into and through an entire season with only 2 CF's in the entire squad, one of which is muller who is a kinda hybrid CF.

oof vidal bullet header!

Atleti penalty.

Scored.

9 more of those please

oh will you just shut up

Bad call on that penalty. Clearly outside the box.

I KNOW GERMAN FOOTBALL I'M A FOOTBALL EXPERT LOOK AT ME WOW DID YOU SEE THAT BORUSSIA MONCHENGLADBACH HAVE A DEFENSIVE MIDFIELDER WITH A SWEET LEFT PEG WOW NICE FROM THE BAYERN WUNDERKIND THERE HE JUST PICKED HIS NOSE

Are Bale and Ornadlo even playing? Bayern ruling this (though Lewa's absence is noticable)

Vidal you twat lol

Vidal's penalty might just have hit BVB's bus it was that high over the bar

too soon

I KNOW GERMAN FOOTBALL I'M A FOOTBALL EXPERT LOOK AT ME WOW DID YOU SEE THAT BORUSSIA MONCHENGLADBACH HAVE A DEFENSIVE MIDFIELDER WITH A SWEET LEFT PEG WOW NICE FROM THE BAYERN WUNDERKIND THERE HE JUST PICKED HIS NOSE

this is wildly disproportionate - give it a rest, not just this post either. calm down.

Not sure why '9 more please' prompted that.

vintage torres... then... other vintage torres

Don't get it either. People on a msg board know more about German football than LJ, which causes LJ to explode with rage? Anyway idc.

So Ronaldo is playing after all. Suddenly not so sure BM will walk this...

Oh dear... Red card for Martinez.

Boy did I pick the wrong night for my Unibet bonus dough riding on a BM win :-/

Could be worse. I bet on Leicester to score.

Griezmann's pen won me 3 quid. There's that, but BM winning is the big one tonight.

I can see LCFC sneaking in a goal once they're 3 or 4-0 behind tbh.
