[Football] Champions League Final

[One Teddy Maybank]

I thought he was emotional, honest and touching.

You don't have to be a wordsmith like me to be a top footballer

Agree. I like him.

Seems to do a lot of good outside of football, in spite of being a diving cheat….

Have a lot of time for him….

 

[B-right-on]

The owners first game in 13 years per the commentary.

Says it all (plastic owners).

 

[Pondicherry]

The worst commentary ever, such an excess of hyperbole just embarrassing It took Citeh 12 years and the budget of a country to win their first Champions League. Brian Clough and Forest won it twice in 4 years on a shoestring.

They won it twice in two years with Britain's most expensive footballer (Francis) and most expensive goalkeeper (Shilton). Agree commentary very poor.

Signing pundits armbands, it gets worse

Never saw John Motson or Brian Moore do that….

Good question. I wasn't impressed with them. They relied on keeping City out and catching them on the break.

City had more possession, while Inter had more shots, and more shots on target, but none of them counted.

On balance, I think City deserved it, and Inter didn't.
In the end, City had a bit too much and in the end, they found a way.

That's a mixture of stats and 'feel'. That's the best I can do!

Could've gone either way, IMHO.
City scored their clear chance, but what would have happened if Inter scored one of their own?
May have put the game in the balance to go either way.
Nevertheless, City held clear but felt there was some luck in that.

Yay, we won because we’re the richest. Yay, so meaningful…

Isn’t Rio a bit to old to forget his socks?

 

[Deadly Danson]

Another "fairytale", this time for the Geordies next season? Yuk.

Only thing I don't like is the multiple drink driving offences.

He's just a bit thick tbf to him I think.

Well done Jake. Why they are binning you, I will never know.

 

[Machiavelli]

Jake Humphrey
Steve McManaman
Rio Ferdinand
Des Kelly
Joleon Lescott
Mario Balotelli

Whoever recruited that lot and gave them contracts should never work again.

Absolutely fecking shite, the lot of them. A total embarrassment.

Which one of this fine list who said 'this is the most predigic* competition'?
PS Rio is great

* he meant prodigious

 

[Eric the meek]

So many people trashing the pundits and commentary.

Me, I just ignored them. I didn't even have the sound off; I had it on and still ignored them. It's a useful skill to have.

Grealish tears talking about this group of staff. They have quadrople the staff size of other PL teams. They have absolutely bankrolled it. Corporate. Abu Duabi play thing. Multi-Millionaires winning all the trophies. Who would have thought it. Lets hope this win is the beginning of the end of Pep and co. They are so dominant - it's boring. They're boring.

At least it'll piss off the red half of Manchester/Hampshire.

That’s so cynical. Sheikh Mansour is a MASSIVE City fan. He went to his second game ever tonight. How’s that for glory hunting?

 

[Solid at the back]

Please bin Darren "I'm pals with all these ex players" 'Fletch. Bloody useless commentary. They also put him on the boxing now FFS!

 

[Eric the meek]

That's it. We've won the league next season.

 

[Machiavelli]

That's it. We've won the league next season.

If he goes, then RDZ goes there.
Fortunately, I'd be a surprised that it isn't a WUM

 

[Triggaaar]

Best team won. It's a shame Inter only showed what they could do at the end.

Well done Jake. Why they are binning you, I will never know.

I thought Jake Humphries look like he was dressed like a BR guard, in that suit.

BT Sport are renaming and will be called TNT Sports.

Accurately describes them as self-destruction.
