Wow, 11 years waiting... 13 since we won it.. we're back and of course we are going to beat RM.

Sure tonight's score was silly. But we always use our cushions. We never make it easy

I look forward to Little Phil being mailed his CL medal..
 
That was easy. It really was. That's the easiest we've ever had it. The couple of goals they had at the end mattered not a jot.
 
My mate is in there and just been told another two and a half hours before they get out, and everyone is gonna miss their flights.

Probs trying to cause some passive aggressive riot. Cunts
 
4-7, 5-7 or 6-7, doesnt matter at all.
Over the two legs we deserved it. Two shite pens and an OG. The scoreline flattered them even though we werent that good tonight.

It seemed like we got to focused on playing the result and stopped playing football.

Ah well, who fucking cares. We’re in the CL final.

Magical! Boss!!
 
I agree with both statements that the scoreline flattered them and we were poor.

Firmino struggled and therefore our attack never really got going other than some lovely bits of play from Mane, but it was all very individual. Salah tried too hard to prove himself and needed to play he simple ball more often and link up play. Robertson and VVD were the better side of our defensive pairing and among our better players.

At our very best we can beat Madrid, but they are clear favourites given their experience and the weak links of Lovren and Karius in the side which I fear will be costly on the night, but we live in hope.

We're going to beat Madrid. Beat them up.
 
I'm pissed off that we lost the game and the scoreline flatters them. And I'm pissed off we were defensively abject again.

Aside from that, great! Champions League final! Would've snapped everyone's arm off at the start of the season. Just can't bear the thought of that greasy ponce whipping his top off and that club of cunts beating us. Hope it doesn't come to that.
 
What's the deal with the Chelsea match, just 1 point required?

If that's the case, get bobby and the brothers out for one more game then wrap them up and place them carefully on a shelf until the final.

If Clyne does well before the final he's in with a chance after that performance from Trent

Honestly, I couldn't disagree more. This team served us up a CL semi-final i which there were no heart-attacks, no paroxysms of fear. We batterd them 5-0, they got a couple of flukey ones, we kept ahead of them in the away tie fo the most part, until they had a couple of late flukey goals. It was easy.
 
We're in the final. Thank god. The semis were horrible in some ways but my god we played well in the games leading up to them. We're back. Now, if only we can get a bit of a squad together, well then, let's play football!

Oh it was easy, to a degree. I'm just furious with the lack of clean sheet in the first leg, and the four goals conceded this leg. I'm angry because it looked like a close tie. Maybe it's the defender in me, but I'd love to have won that 7-2 or whatever like it should've been.
 
It was a bit like the league game v City, we were soo far ahead with 10 minutes to go it didn't really matter if they scored those last few goals.
It's down to a one off game v Real.. Who lost to Spurs earlier this season.

I'm annoyed we lost today, but we're a team in progress, not the finished article... and we're in the final!

That's pretty standard in derbies I believe over there.
 
I was nervous as fuck watching that game particularly because they had so much of the ball and it was like playing fucking Stoke at times - I worry we lack imagination when faced with a tight defence as our midfield is so depleted we are really stuck - I know Gini scored and happy for him but with so much space available we should have done better and if Ox was fit I reckon we could have put 5 past them. Fucking hell I am a wreck after that. Both Firminio and Salah looked completely off the pace with Mane the only one who was our best player and seemed like the only threat with Robertson.

I don't know what to take from the game overall as we had our foot off the pedal after the first goal it seems but still losing 4-2 ain't a great thing despite getting through. At times it feels like we cannot even pass the ball or take hold of it from the opposition - total reversal of last season where in most games we had the ball nearly all the time.

Fuck it - just enjoy the moment moron.
 
2-1 at half time was game over already.
2nd half, we took our foot off the gas, was very comfortable up to 85th minute, despite Dzeko scoring 1 at the 56 minute.
They needed 3 more in the last 10 minutes just to go into extra time. Not going to happen... they were limited to long range shooting most of the time, our defense has been reasonably solid to limit them to do that.
One very good long range goal, and one unjustifiable penalty. That's it. Game over. For me the game management is good enough.

Move on. YWNA.

If they are to get injured it'll be Sunday.

I'd rest them.

I don't mind it, there will be no over confidence.

We are better as the underdog
 
Definitely. If there's a positive, hopefully Real will still take us lightly.
