[Albion] Champions League 23/24 Thread

[Dave the OAP]

Liverpool really need to cash in Salah while they still can, he is absolutely washed. Awful performance from them tonight. Can see them struggling next season.

These injuries that top class players get take their toll! So many decent players get crocked and are never the same afterwards

 

[Simster]

Leverkeusen still unbeaten all season. Impressive.

Either they are going to win it or Roma are. I hope they do, but if Roma win it instead then at least we'd have lost to the eventual winners.

It's LAUGHABLY bad. What possible reason could there be for this existing?

The only thing I can think of is someone already on a yellow may deliberately get themselves sent off to disrupt a penalty taker/keeper. Might be considered a price worth paying.

Some players get played and played until they break. Salah is a prime example.

 

[HeaviestTed]

So there aren’t any English teams left in any European matches?

Amazing really. Just think playing on mud bath pitches, one sub allowed, two legged league cup, replays in FA cup 24 teams in the league.

Villa

Fair enough…… but they didn’t play virtually 12 months a year, travel across Europe nearly every other week, play league based European football from August to April, play against 11 super fit opponents every match.
They also want to go into retirement without a permanent limp.

 

[One Love]

Villa get away with a hand ball escaping a pen against them

And their goal should have been disallowed. Yes the goalkeeper bumps into his own player but that player was pushed into him by a Villa player.

They continually get everything going for them, I'm so sick of it now.

 

[OzMike]

Only Villa left, the irony.

Lost the tie to the eventual winners but actually beaten them too in one of the legs.

Enjoyed that, Roma round 2?

 

[perth seagull]

Things didn't go as planned for Jurgen Klopp

Trossards dad reffing the Bayern/Madrid game….away side one up at mo

[LamieRobertson]

Minutes later Harold Kane scores from the spot 2/1

Madrid equalise

He's been brilliant as well.

 

[London Irish]

Great game - should be the final. You’d be gutted if you were Bayern

Dortmund 1-0 up on the night, 2-0 Aggregate, seconds after Zaire-Emery missed an open goal from two yards. Ryerson, Hummels and Schlotterbeck putting on a masterclass so far.
