mate, you need to stick to the Ronaldo threads, we are talking football here
Are you denying Barca have been diving all over the place and getting most the decisions in the CL in recent years?

Busquets? Alves?
 
Simeone did a Mourinho with his subs today.

Hope Juve or Real win it now! Was fun as long as Real didn't manage the decima, but now as they have it anyway, I don't care much if they have 10 or 12 in the end. It's not like any club is catching them anytime soon anyway.

And congrats to @Vato @Raul Madrid @carvajal and co, Ancelotti finally beat Simeone again!
 
Butchers? They're robust but nothing tonight could be described the way you're doing it.

I dislike Atletico for their style but their tackles tonight weren't any worse than anything you'll see in any other game of football. Real just made the absolute most of it. For a grown man to roll around the way Ramos & Varane did is genuinely embarrassing.
Exactly.
 
Amazes me how anyone can like Atletico. Well done Real Madrid for knocking them out.

Delighted Juve are through as well.
It's probably most people just disliking Real Madrid more. Let's not forget Atletico are the eternal underdogs, which does make them more likeable.
But yeah, Simeone and his players are thugs. And now they can't do shit on the attack because they lost Costa.
 
They're average, just like Monaco are at this level of the CL. Liverpool won the CL while being average, same with Chelsea. It happens as it's a cup competition, an average team can win it. Seems like I involuntarily touched a nerve there.

Not really mate, you're just talking nonsense by claiming teams like that are average. No point in going further with the discussion when you're talking silly like that.
 
Glad Juve are through if only because Patrice is there. Didn't enjoy Real v Atleti, proper snide bastards these players in Spain.
 
Go back and see your original post mate where you're calling the number one team in Italy and a team through to the semi finals of the CL 'average'. Chill out man :lol:
Apparently Monaco should have had a penalty today and Juventus were pretty poor so saying they were average today isn't that big of a deal

Busquets? Alves?

The more you post, the more you embarrass yourself.
 
Thank feck Juve's still in the game (albeit not for long I guess) because there'd be absolutely nobody to root for.

Yes they roll around and exagerrate contacts and I hate it too. It's just that there were also legit fouls committed on them by stupid Atletico players. Arda's second is a good example, what was there to gain from doing a high foot like that in the position he was. Just asking for trouble, specially when you have prima donnas in front of you.
 
I'm sick of seeing Barca, Bayern and Madrid in the Semi finals every season. Premier league needs to step the feck up next season, Arsenal, Chelsea and United need to go big in the transfer market.
Yea because our teams do not spend in the transfer market. Most of them outspend Bayern and are there or thereabouts with Barcelona. Let's not recycle this old cliché.
 
Atletico didn't even try to take advantage of Real Madrid missing Modric, Benzema, Bale and Marcelo. They should have shown more adventure in their game, disappointing stuff from Simeone. I mean, Real started the game with Ramos in midfield for fecks sake!
 
Was talking to an Italian friend the other day. He said in Italy, they can't understand why the English don't milk challenges more often and play "smarter". Not judging or anything but the footballing cultures are certainly different in the continent.

That's a reason I'm glad I watch English football. I watch a fair amount of rugby and I'm finding it hard to watch most football matches. If it wasn't for United, I'd have stopped watching football years ago. I actually did stop because I was tired of all the cheating but I got back into it.
 
Kinda feel bad for Hernandez - hardly playing, scores a massive goal and celebrated almost by himself for the most part...

He'd have been a so much better option for us to have then Falcao - though having said that, I'm fairly sure even Falcao would have scored that chance!
 
Good that we don't have to watch Atleti in CL anymore this season.
 
Barcelona or Juventus to win it all, 10 CL trophies should be enough for 1 team, and you shouldn't have a WC player in every position thats just wrong.
 
Henry giving Hernandez absolutely no credit for the goal. :lol:

"That's Ronaldo's goal", "he (Chicharito) shouldn't celebrate alone, he should be turning around and thanking Ronaldo".

I think Hernandez went to ground out of sheer exhaustion, rather than trying to grab all the attention as Henry is suggesting. The fact that he was substituted shortly afterwards reflects that, not to mention Ronaldo celebrated like it was his goal anyway. I think Thierry is being very unfair.
 
Hernandez is down for about 3 minutes then how long it takes to make subs. He adds on 5 minutes of injury time on the 91st minute. Blows at 95:05 after playing like 30 seconds within injury time. Piss take.

The diving from Real was shocking throughout the game.
Its a joke, there was no football played after the goal.
it seems that you get rewarded for time wasting nowadays
 
Atletico were shite over two legs and deserved to go out, sets up some good potential ties for the senis.

Raul Garcia seems to come on just to tangle with Ramos, didn't do anything of note but argue and give away fouls.
 
Not really mate, you're just talking nonsense by claiming teams like that are average. No point in going further with the discussion when you're talking silly like that.

Aren't you special ? Stopping a discussion you decided to start, just like a grown person.
Just read what the Juve fan said about his team, is he talking nonsense too ?
